How important are the 2LT features?

I am feeling the same dilema. I would miss the auto dimming mirrors, lumbar support, and homelink. From this thread, I can add homelink. I am still trying to make up my mind. I went from a C6 1lt to a newer C6 2lt. I do like the extras. But on the C7, 1lt gives alot. The only mandatory option is NPP performance exhaust which I think the GS 1lt comes with, same as Z51 Base. Good luck as I am in the hunt also but for a different color.

I thought when I bought my car that I'd miss the HUD. But the graphics on the C7 are large enough that I don't miss it at all. Also 'heated seats and mirrors are useless to me in SW Florida. The rest is "window dressing" and it's nice to have but to me $ 4500.00 is not chump change. 
The ONLY thing I would love to have are 2 tones seats, but they want $8K for that!! No freaking way! 
Just saying...I've had my car almost 5 years now and have yet to regret not dishing out , what that one guy say, " $ 2.10 a day."

I wanted 2LT because I used HUD in my C5 all the time. So my C7 has 2LT, but I found the ergonomics are so good in the C7, that I frequently use the dashboard instead of HUD. That said, the lumbar support, memory seat and cooled/ventilated seat (North Carolina summers) are options I would sorely miss if I didn't have them. So I would not buy a C7 without 2LT, but that's just my opinion and what I want. YMMV.

Allow me to join the "it's your own personal choice" brigade... That said, FWIW my "must haves" were M7 'cuz I enjoy going thru the gears, and 2LT for the HUD, front camera, Homelink and ventilated seats in a hot central Commiefornia summer. The HUD and front camera are invaluable IMO.

Other than the garage door opener in the visor I don't use any of the upgrades. - especially the distracting HUD. The time when the 2LT package might benefit is when it comes time to trade it in, because we all know most C7 buyers prefer to have more car than they really need.
To each their own.
