now don't get me wrong, a LSD is a must for racing on the track with corners... so 90% of us will never need the damn thing
my car has a LSD, but I wouldn't go so far as saying a TC w/o one is worthless, in drag racing, you can line up two models, one w/ and one w/o and its going to be a driver's race...
even if you don't have one, you don't get single wheel burnouts for example

you do realize the tc that ran a 13.56 stock didn't have a LSD, right?

The option code for the LSD is g85. Just ask the dealer what it says on the window sticker, under options. It'll say limited slip differential under the options if it has it. Same with the reprogrammable performance display.
I have a black coupe with LSD, but not the RPD. IMO, if you don't even know what they are, it won't miss not having it. Just get whichever one you like better/get the best deal on. The car with LSD will be able to get more traction while turning and giving it a lot of gas. The car w/out LSD will spin the inside (?) wheel more when turning at high throttle, so you'll lose traction.
The RPD just shows you more information (none of it you need to know if you keep the car stock, but it's still pretty cool). There's aftermarket products that plug in under the dashboard that you can use as well, to show a lot of the same things (and more), so you can always add something like it later if you prefer.

There are 4 SS/TCs in my area.
I have a red one. The other 3 are black. I almost got silver.
You made a good choice.
What is on the window though?
