Joe said it was basically fully loaded at $85K. And for that price, it has to be. I don't want orange brakes, so whatever. ML is nice, but not going to be a deal breaker for an additional $2K. It gets into the $95K price range it and it won't sell. I don't think it will sell at $85K.

Thats nearing Tesla territory, and I dont know about you guys but Tesla P85D > GSF
I can't see this touching $90k, considering there are only two options available. It's fully loaded otherwise. I mean how much can you charge for ML and orange paint?

The price is very high (makes an RC F or 2013 IS-F look like a bargain lol)

Although it is nice to see lots of amazing cars in this category like the M5, E63, Panamera, CTS-V...Now GS-F offering from Lexus.

I agree with other posters, a slightly used GS-F in a few years might be the way to go!

True. Also CPO M5 and CPO E63 are about the same price. Lexus GSF needs to go Big or go Home.

Default GS F not enough value in this segment

"Don't knock it 'til you've tried it," but it seems this car vs. M5 vs. CTS-V vs. AMG E doesn't add up. You can be down on power vs. competitors, but not this far down. You can have a higher dollar-per-hp ratio, but not this much higher. List goes on and on, where the GS F just seems to push the envelope too far to stay on the shopping list. Unless the driving experience were so much more exhilarating than the rest of the segment, it's just not going to get consideration.

ML is $1380 on the GS, not sure how much orange calipers can be. Several hundred $?

You guys need to read the new articles on the GS-F. The car starts at 85 grand, but the torque vectoring differential and premium L shaped headlights are STANDARD so consider it part of the 85 grand. The only other option you'll be paying is the Mark Levinson Audio (which is probably around 3 grand).

In other words, the most you'll be paying for the GS F is probably 88-89 grand. Much better then paying over 100 grand for that BMW M5. The Cadillac, on the other hand, is very enticing.
