That luggage is some crazy value of a few thousand dollars or something when you get it separate. One of our dealerships got theirs stolen and had to buy a new set.

 

yep, that's what i have.

actually, the ocean blue is really a nice addition to the interior.

 

I feel like the Special Edition F Sport package was worth the extra money. I love the suspension enhancements, the Trident wheels are great as well (I am not a fan of aftermarket wheels after my experiences with my GS), the Ocean Blue NuLuxe is really quite nice, and the luggage is good but not something I really wanted.

My only regret was that I had to get the "premium" stereo system with it. That was worthless to me since I replaced every speaker and had to add two amps and a Bit One processor to get where I wanted to be.

 

I would get it just for the black headliner alone....

 

I personally think that the CT is a great car, regardless.

it's a high end prius and it offers a different look than the prius if you're looking for that.

This thread of the "F" sport appearance is merely a subjective and financial view. If you like it,
if you can afford it, then get it. simple.

 

We picked up our F-sport this weekend - just the darker gun-metal rims is worth it - amazing contrast to the lighter silver body color

 

i agree, so worth it

 

the question "is it worth it?" is purely subjective.
each member has a different "limit" on how much they want to spend on a car.
It also depends on how many cars you have.. and if you're still paying for your student loans ( ouch!)
if you're planning to OWN the car for at least 5 years, then go for it!
if you're planning to buy a lot of aftermarket additions, then go for it again.
However, if you'll be trading the car within 5 years, you don't really get any appreciation for those "packages"
regardless of what the dealer is telling you now.

 

I don't like the F-Sport design, especially the dark wheels look strange with most of the car colors.

Only thing I ask myself is if the dark roof interior is better for the nav. screen...?
I owned 2 prius and never had reflections on the nav. screen, now in the CT I have to hit the tilt-button quite often to have a good view. Does the dark headliner help here?

 

I have to disagree with you ~ the darker wheels on our F-sport is what sold me!

Sure the front grill and small tidbits help the look but the F-sport wheels really give a nice contrast to our body color. I agree it does not work with Nebula Grey but most colors it would look nice!

When we bought the car I didn't even notice the black headliner was a feature of the F-sport but I admit it does help with glare as our interior is dark. Once we get the windows tinted it will be even darker so glare should not be an issue. You want to see glare issues you should the interior dash of my NSX!

this is our F-sport color combo - love the darker wheels!

 

dark wheels looks good on lighter colors

and Yeah.. this is a mazda!

 

I think its worth it.

 

Is it possible to get the F-sport appearance and SE package without the wheels?

 

SE includes the wheels. You can always ask the dealer to swap to regular F-Sport wheels.

 

Thanks for reply. So there's a regular f-sport wheel and a SE f-sport wheel?
