Excatly, this is the car they will have in the center of the showroom floor only at selected dealerships.

That's a rare car. It's a fully optioned IS350C (Mark Levinson, Park Assist, Radar Cruise/PCS, Headlamp Washers) with F-Sport!

So C&D compared the new hardtop convertibles and the 4 cylinder AUDI A4 AWD tested with options was no joke $62,000 with a softop and a whopping 210 or so hp.

Yes you heard that right. 4 cylinder, $62,000, softop.

Save a bit off of that at the dealer, but WOW, for an A4!

I can't believe people would even consider a vert for the track. Come on guys this is pathetic. There is enough aftermarket parts to make it your IS-C as unique as the F-Sport line. If I was eagerly in the market to by an IS-C F-Sported out then I would wait till some idiot buys one and realizes how big of a mistake it was and then take it off of his/her hands for $12k less. Sorry 1Sick but this car is over inflated.
