Wondering if this will compete with the Mercedes C63? I just optioned out one to my liking.
Lunar blue
Stock 18"wheels for comfort
Black red pepper NAPA upholstery
Driver assistance package
Driver Assistance Code, DISTRONIC PLUS w/Steering Assist, BAS PLUS w/Cross Traffic Assist, Collision Mitigation System Rear, PRE-SAFE Plus w/Pedestrian Recognition, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist
AMG performance exhaust
Rear view camera
Illuminated star(Geeky I know)
Linden wild trim
$76k
I declined
Heads up display ($1k. Damn annoying to me)
Amg Super seats($2.5k Very nice looking though)
Manual rear seat window shade ($350)
ALL carbon fiber. Not a fan of it. ($2k option)
The 469-hp 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 with a 4 sec flat 0-60. Not bad
Which is on par with Lexus N/A engine. What do you guys think? Is Lexus trying to compete with the C63 AMG?

As u know most ppl lease these cars and tend to order them to their specific spec as far as colors/options. None of these are strong points of the GSF so not sure who the target market is at this point.

Problem is it offers less performance for much higher price than M3 / C63.

and in terms of ordering actually i don't entirely agree. a big portion of m and amg cars are bought (leased) off the lot, not from custom order

How could this GS have a nearly identical wheel base & be longer by couple inches have so little leg room? Even current ones. Any guesses? Is it the TVD? Extra room for the V6?
I sat in the Camry and had lots of knee room on the level of LS almost once the seat up front was adjusted. I just don't get it.

especially with the pricing list from cars.com (or something like that) i think the pricing is pretty solid already
i have always said the way it is, the gsf seems more like a m3/c63 fighter. and honestly in that sense the gsf seems to offer more space, tech, and quality for a bit more price

At this price point throw in the Audi S7 too. Zoom past that and the Audi S8 begins at $114k.

Why doesn't the RC suffer from the same TVD issue? The regular RC and RC F both have 27.3 inches in rear legroom. Or do you reckon a normal GS F without TVD(which they don't make) would still have the same amount of rear legroom?

In the RC, the RC200t/350 have 60/40 folding rear seats, where the RCF loses this feature due to extra bracing.

For me I think it's almost the opposite. For people who are going to track their car, the responsiveness and linear power delivery of the GS-F's naturally aspirated, high revving V8 will probably provide for a very rewarding / engaging track experience. Driving around town however, the GS-F's substantial torque deficit will make its performance seem anemic in comparison to the turbocharged M and AMG offerings. I would guess you'd need to keep the GS-F above 4,500-5,000 RPM's to unlock its power. That's not typical "around town" driving.

are you saying this jsut because the s7 has a starting price of 83k which seems to be very close to the starting price of the gsf? are you still that caught up with "starting price" when in reality it's really hard to be used for comparison? i say build a comparably optioned s7 as the gsf then we have a better idea

My build with following options checked....
Sepang Blue pearl $575
Comfort Sport seats in Black Valcona leather seating surfaces $1950
Comfort Sport seats in Black Valcona leather seating surfaces $500
Cold weather package Heated seats & steering wheel $500

Rear axle differential Torque Vectoring $3500
I APPRECIATE the fact Audi will allow you to opt out
of the DTV and sport exhaust. I'll never track this car
so I don't think I'll be missing it as I won't be pushing it to it's limit.
Also possibly quieter exhaust? That will be better for me.
Power closing (soft) doors $500
Rear side air bag $350
Total $93K
W/O The S7 sports package $89.5K
I omitted the B&O sound system as I would prefer to install my own. Keeps the $$$ in the local economy and all that. Beside I have speakers I love for that price. Focal Utopia's, Sinfoni Amplifiers..
No leather roofs or night vision. Nice but no thanks.
Then for those who can reach a tiny bit further into their wallet there is this..
16 leather choices, stitching, paint...
