Maybe for you it is but not for everyone else. Hopefully some get their GTS's soon so we can talk about something else.
hey man, if you're going to pay $12,500 on a "reasonably priced car" you may as well just ... ... ... ... Bugatti La Voiture Noire. Not sure why everone is being so cheap.

Meh if you're spending up for the Voiture Noire you may as well move up to a Rolls-Royce Boat Tail.

EDIT: this seems like a parody, but they're serious:


I can just imagine the puffed up idiots that would pay 28m for a rolls with a dinner set built in to the boot.

Drew46,"breaking" was a speech recognition error that I failed to correct. Sorry.
I am not "pissing in anyone's cornflakes" and in fact originally had a GTS on order and changed it to a base 8 weeks ago.
I made a decision that is right for me and am sharing my observation based partially on weight, styling preference, driving characteristics and increased time to delivery.
It was a bit surprising to me to see the data on braking distance and skidpad performance and I thought someone else might find it interesting also.
It is not intended to impugn anyone's future or past purchase and my apology for raising your blood pressure.

There is nothing comparable between data sets from tests taken with any amount of time or distance between them.
