Hi all. Couldn't really find a lot of opinions on this. I'm very close to getting a rc350 f sport but I'm really wondering if it's worth spending nearly 2k for the variable gear ratio steering option, which is essentially rear wheel steering from what I'm reading. Opinions seem mixed on it. Any thoughts or reviews on it would be much appreciated. Thx!

 

Bump on this question.

Anyone with any experience on this feature?

Thanks

 

It comes standard on our F Sports (in Oz). It's very nice, but I'm not sure I'd pay $2k extra for it.

 

I've had my RC for less than a week but I really notice the rear wheel steering when going on/off ramps to the highway. Less steering input needed and the car handles so nice. Our RWD cars come standard with this feature here in Canada.

 

That is interesting in the US it is a $2K option only available on the RWD version. Wonder why it would be standard in CAN?

 

The word "standard" is deceiving...Canada gets VGRS "standard" because they pay more. I wish it was available on more cars in the US. Not many dealers here seem to order cars with it, forcing people to special order.

 

I agree but the use of "standard" vs. "required" as in the moon roof which you can't get away from is interesting. Looking at the Canadian web site the AWD version is $3,050.00 CD less than the RWD version. The options and packages are so much different than those offered in the US.
