I currently drive my 2017 GSF with A BIG SMILE everyday especially after watching those RCF GT3 videos!!!
Yes. I admit my GSF's throttle response is a bit tame but I also save a lot of gas and tires... Of course, I still can put it in SPORT+ mode or do manual shifts anytime if I want some spirited driving... (I call this smart fast which is opposite to stupid fast)
PS: If you think the current IS are rare, then let me tell you... My GSF is even much more rare!!! (2-3 in Taiwan, 2500 in USA)
