Oh, he knows. You should see the e-mails I get lamenting how slow it is.

 

great birthday gift for him.

 

Seriously, I get passed on the road by 100 year-old desert tortoises. Soooooooo Sloowwwwwwwww.

 

Even worse. You got passed by a woman wearing a tennis cap with a scarf on and giant sunglasses driving a WHITE car going 0.5 mph on the "fast" lane.

Holy crap.

 

Annnnd, that white car looks like a sea creature and has a "FX" badge on the back.

 

Visor... get it right AZN!

 

You sayin' I look like a woman!?? HOW DARE YOU.

 

Sollee.

 

 

Go step on a LEGO brick.

 

The Ford Focus RS Is Way More Of A Driver's Car Than A Mustang

Can't wait for my future future purchase.

 

so this car has been raging the streets of Chicago over the past week...

 

raging silently?

from the picture it looks it failed the superior ground clearance department

 

The door handle looks open. Production issue - another delay imminent.

I'll be downtown tonight. My eyes will be peeled.

 

not gonna lie

that thing looks stunning

 

So Tyler, we may or may not have 2 2018 Lexus' for the next week or so.

 

The LCs are coming to your dealership?!

 

Hey need some lease #s on the GSF.... how are they leasing out right now?

 

We haven't leased one yet...though we have 9 in-stock

 

Like above, we haven't leased any either.
Prototypes. Unfortunately, can't get you any pics or extra info without costing my job. Lexus is extremely strict about them. Couple coworkers said they're very nice.

 

That's bullshit.

 

I am thinking about leasing 1 but kinda hard to negotiate without a benchmark number.

 

Keep checking this thread for updates. Price Paid for a GS-F (Lease or Purchase) - Club Lexus Forums

 

I know. There is supposed to be a P1 and 918 brought by for whatever reason to benchmark. Maybe I can snag a few pics of them.

 

 

yah while i googled "GSF lease deal" that thread came up and i read all of it and left with no usable information at all. haha

 

According to TrueCar, it's only about $200/month less to lease (3 years/10k miles per year) as it is to purchase ($0 down, 60 months @ 2.5%)

 

Lol

 

..... I drove a 2009 M3 6MT last night, it felt really slow - is it a really big difference if the Power mode is off? That's the only technical thing I could think of. (I didn't know to check it, when I drove it). Now, I'm comparing this to the 2011 M3 SMG I had for awhile earlier in the year, which felt plenty fast.

 

The Power button just changes the throttle response. If it "felt" slow it may have been because the throttle tip in wasn't as quick.

 

thanks for the info - I wonder what was the deal with this car. I had throttle at around 90% at 3000 rpm and the car wasn't picking up speed with any urgency.

 

I'll let you drive my car for the day and I promise you that M3 will feel fast as hell after that.

 

dunno - some setting was off on this car. Have to check it again and see.

 

Someone in our work doesn't know shit about cars; they brought out a Turbo S & 570S to benchmark. But, I can't complain since I got to drive the 911 all the way back to her store.



Wouldn't have had that chance with a 918 & gotten to experience how fast the new Turbo is.

 

Nice nice. Turbo S, too.

 

Turbo S

On the M3 feeling slow, doesn't the car default to a lower power level? Don't you have to press the M button to get 100% of the power? Or am I mixing it up with the M5 on that feature?

 

I dunno. I just think some setting was different on this one. I have driven a few in the past and they felt much faster. Anyways. Prince died so this "problem" doesn't seem too much of anything anymore. Lates.
