Theres something so forzaish or need for speedish about how these video's are made. I don't know if its the relaxed demeanor awesome background music or the way the videos are edited or all of it combined but its absolutely delightful.
i am on a third video right now and i am damn hooked, this is probably best auto channel i found this year, keep up the good work! I am bmw guy myself and owned numerous bmws and driven so, but keep that GSF and other JDM cars rolling!
Thanks man! I show love to all cars, but I'll try to get some more imports on the channel. Seems like I've been driving mostly American lately, but I will be diversifying!
I love your reviews, very honest and straight to the point. I watched the entire video without usually having to skip to anticipate the next part. Subscribed.
As everyone has stated, great video. I'm in the market and cross shopping this with the E63 Wagon, RS7 and CTS-V. Speed is not the only factor, but I want to always smile.
I think you find that all three of those options will put a smile on your face when you hit the pedal. The GS-F was a little underwhelming in that department but as a daily driver with some punch, it's not bad at all.
M240i is a good daily can confirm. AWD with Supra engine also if you opt in for a tune and downpipe you got yourself a Fast daily that sound decent. Just something to think about. Keep up the great content!
Jack Z depends on the driver for me I love smaller sports cars and the M2 for me is the best car BMW makes. As for the M240i it adds a new engine on an awesome platform and AWD and that sounds like a recipe for a fun car.
@@mariomunoz7167 Nice, what did you beat it with? The reason I want the Golf R is because sometimes I drive into NYC and it is the smallest, AWD car with 4 seats and ability to go fast (ish).
Dude I'm about to buy a car. Im really leaning towards a 2015-16 GS 350, but after your last video I'm on the fence again. However, the RCF is a good alternative since you mentioned and I will look into the prices because you really know what your talking about. Great vids BTW.

This thing actually sounds incredible, especially at limiter. I have to do something with these engines in the future. Personally I think someone needs to swap one into the new Supra. XD
Yes time will tell. Like BMW's original foray into forced induction, the N54, it could become a great platform. For now, I have my eyes on the new GT500 instead 😉
It's actually the B58 which is closed deck, so it should handle even more power! I hear you though, I don't think it's what I would spend my money on. New GT500 looks pretty insane. Thanks for replying!
As I've mentioned in the other video that i didn't know it was film in Charlotte area until I see the uptown. I also live in Charlotte area. I used to race the GSF couple years back when I still have my 2006 E55 AMG. I beat it by 5 or 6 car length, definitely one of a fast Lexus for sure.
The E55 AMG was a beast, especially for it's time. Interesting that you were able to pull so much on the GSF though since from the factory, both cars seem to have almost the same power to weight ratio. Probably all that torque from the 5.4L V8.
I would hugely differ with your concepts and reviews approach, GSF is being bought hugely for looks. I find it hard to see any other car close to GSF from looks perspective . It looks dope. Are you biased ?
Acceleration would have been better if he had started out in lower gear at around 5500 - 5800 rpm instead of a taller gear at much lower rpm. TVD was developed for the RCF so RCF with carbon fiber/TVD package was what RCF was designed around. Also, the 2020 RCF has 471 HP while the 2020 GSF has 467 HP so technically not the same. RCF also has slightly shorter gearing.
That limiter bounce is something that you will not experience in the Audi S6. At that point the Audi trans will shift for you in any mode which sucks. The Lexus Transmission is better in that aspect.
Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't realize the S-variants did that. I didn't notice it in the TTRS I tested but then again, I didn't actively seek out to hit the limiter on that car.
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy I had the LC500 in mind as well when I asked earlier but tbh, I'd watch an IS250 review bc I'm a fan of your filming and post processing in these last couple videos. Keep up the great work!

0-200 kmh in just under 16 seconds? Thats 3 seconds slower than a rs3 sedan. Laughable. A m5v10 is as quick as this. Am5 f 90 is 6 seconds quicker. Bullcrap

You need to get your hands on a supercharged GS F. It would be cool to see the difference in speed. Nice video man!
You say that as if it's easy to get one...i mean they don't come from factory that way so he'd have to find someone who supercharged it themselves.
