What does the Calais have over a redline?

What does the Calais have over a redline?

I don’t have a complete list; what I’m aware of is heated seats, heated exterior mirrors, puddle lights, auto-dipping external mirrors for reversing, electric seat & mirror memories linked to key-fob (I assume also MyLink settings).

And the redline has performance options over calais/ssv such as brembos, fe3 suspension, launch control.

Does ssvr or ssv have driver seat memory?

Redline doesn’t even have electric passenger seats...

 

[Forg]

No, no seat memory in SSVR.

Also more performance oriented tune in the ESC, which can also change the steering, tq management, traction control and ESC with a double tap of the button. I prefer the Redline seats too.

MY17 also has the electrochromatic mirror though that I believe was standard in the Caprice all along with the WN.

It’s probably easier to Redline your Calais than Calais-ing your Redline.

But then if we want both we can just go with the Motorsport and Director. But that’s for another topic!

Im glad I went SS as I dont want anything else, thinking upgrade all the performance parts anyway.

Yep easy to put Brembo's on your Calais. You can even fit them behind the standard 19's.

I reckon the opposite to be the case. Far easier and far less exe to add an electric pax seat, a few mirrors and lamps etc, than suspension, wheels, brakes, tyres, body kit (contra), ESC program etc.
