The Sport model came with every option available. The R/T came with rear disc brakes, leather wrapped steering wheel and shift ****, R/T rims, only came with DOHC and MTX, and also has stiffer springs.

The R/T, Sport and DOHC ACR came with the 3.94 tranny, but the R/T and ACR have the 0.81 fifth gear as opposed to the Sport's 0.72.
