No, it’s not. You’re quoting the small battery. With the same battery it’s 482 v. 616, a 28% difference. On overboost the difference is even smaller, 562 v 670, a 19% difference.
You do know that a performance spec 4S will be the exact same car as a Turbo, except for the added power, right? The only difference is that the Turbo will be faster. It won’t be dynamically different in any other way.
Who asked you to ’go down that road again’, pal?
You seem to be getting butthurt again by a simple truth. The cars are identical, but for the motor. The placebo effect is strong…
Agree except the price isn’t close, as I went through this when I bought my 4S. The difference in price of a like specc’d car is about $25k between the Turbo and the 4S.
Think I got about £2k above a GTS when I specified a 4S. Memory fails me tbh. The Turbo was about £15k more once I’d specified it.
The base price difference in the US is $47k. When you layer in the standard stuff onto the 4S, it shrinks to about $25k. When I was ordering my 4S in 2021 with a $142.5k sticker, my dealer had a new 2020 Turbo on the lot specd near identically with a sticker of $175k. It had about $6k of additional options over my build. They actually offered it to me for $147.5k, but it had the glass roof, which was a nonstarter for me.
Nope not me. I bought my car in Beverly Hills but car is outside of seattle. There is a thread on the la car show with a blue gts some people say may be shark blue which Is very close to voodoo ?
That is interesting.
I clearly click the options more than you Frank!
I've just checked the spreadsheet when I compared my 4S and Turbo options back in Dec'21- the Turbo was £22k more to buy (than a 4S spec'd as closely as possible to it), however when I took in to account the finance quotes "final payment to buy" at 3 years (which my man-maths encouraged me to assume was a reasonable indication of %RV), it would only cost me £3k more (in total) than the 4S over 3 year's ownership (as I wasn't taking the finance so was not incurring the interest).
It’s interesting. My Turbo build ended up at about £17k or so more. Maybe your spec for a Turbo was different to mine with more optionals not built in to a Turbo. I tend to stick relatively closely to the standard spec on cars, but spec a higher base car. My RS3, for example, had only £890 of extra’s on it as I really liked the standard kit and Nardo Grey for me was the best colour for it (£0 option)
