Default '14 F-Sport from '13 F-Sport?

I just curious on getting '14 F-sport. It is different from '13 F-Sport? What is have features on '14 F-sport? Power folding mirrors?

Do you understand me?

^ only for rwd. For awd it's still the 6spd.

It also has the iphone Siri integration and power trunk (correct me if I'm wrong)

I would wait for the 15' GS to come out before getting a 14'.

Yes we ubderstand uoy.


I think 2013 is better only because of how it drives and sounds. Feature wise, besides folding mirrors there is nothing good.

Who cares about Siri that doesnt distingushes between hello and fellow.

The 2013 has option of night vision, it was discontinued on the 2014 models.

They drive and sound the same lol. It's the same car, different transmission if you have AWD but that's it.

they dont, my friend has 2013 and I have 2014, sounds different, drives different, even the space between the tires and the wells is different, my 2014 is higher about .500-.75"

I saw your thread about that...I think that's more likely a fluke than anything else. They're the same car, we know what was changed.

Half an inch is within the margin for production variances, and remember his has DRS, whatever role that may play...it certainly plays a role in how it feels and drives. Also remember that his is broken in.

All the suspension parts are exactly the same.

All true. It maybe the reason why it seats lower.

Compared to Atlanta there seems to be much more aggressive deals in Miami. Also the factory support for the GS today is much higher than it was back in 2012/2013. Its something the wife and I have recently chatted about.
