3.0 sport package

I am considering a used 02 or 03 3.0. I was wondering what is the difference in hardware between the non-SP and SP cars? Thanks.

Stiffer suspension, better wheels, clear signals, more support in the seats, black chrome exhausts. That's pretty much the big difference between the two.

Does anyone know if the H&R or Eibach lowering springs will have the same ride/performance as the SP suspension? Thanks.

I prefer to think of it as a better airbag - so you can reuse it when you swap out the sport wheel for the M wheel
