How does it compare to the SL63 without P030???

Is the P030 worth it? Is there really that much less body roll with it? Does the LSD make a big difference?

As far as info from other members go, it's seems just suspension tweeks and de limited, but no extra power. Shame

I have the 030 in my 07. The LSD is great and does make a difference during hard accleration and on wet pavement, I like my 19" vs. 18" rims and tires, the brakes are better and do not squeak, handling is crisper with less body roll, I'm not limited to 155mph, (i pushed it once to 170) I like the interior upgrades, and I like the fact that it's a rare option that you won't find on many other SL's. However, if I was ordering my car in 07 (I bought it used) I would not have ordered the optional $14K 030 package. IMHO it's not worth the price.
