they're completely wrong. the RS and LS are the same exact thing minus some creature comforts (i.e. sunroof, etc). the RS actually weighs less, so if you want to get really technical, the RS is faster.

Actually the RS is faster than the LS.

The engine and transmission are exectly the same, except the RS is more than 100lbs lighter. All things equal it will be roughtly 1/10th faster in the 1/4 mile.

What is the weight difference between a GSR weight and an RS weight?
