Yes, you can add/replace a LSD, but it's not like dropping in an air filter. It's expensive parts and labor. Even if the LSD needed rebuilding, it's still cheaper to do that on a car with one that already exists versus installing one on a car that never had it. It's just makes much more financial sense to buy a car with the sport package if you care about that stuff. You could probably make up the difference just by selling the OEM 19" wheels if you want different rims. If you just want looks, then get whatever is cheapest like a bare bones non-pkg car and treat it like a blank canvas.

What do you mean "practically open"? Like worn out? 60K is not that many miles. Not enough to render a LSD useless unless the car has been beat to hell. In that case, you've got other things to worry about too.
