Default LexusGS450h or Audi A7?

Hello all, New here.

I currently drive an 09 Lexus GS450h. Great car really love the power....Thinking of buying the A7 as I really like the look. I have heard there will be an S7 out this year, but have not found a lot of info on it yet.

I have a few concerns about the A7....The biggest concern is the HP rating...it seems to me that a sedan this big needs more than 310hp to get out of its own way? Also have any of you that own an A7 added any mods? such as Custom wheels....lowering springs, hp mods of any kind?

If so can you please share a pic or two..? below is a pic of the GS...one thing i love about it is that you can make it your own...Mine is on Lexus F-spot lowering springs, painted the top black....and put on 20'' Vossen wheels...on 295 tires in the rear...just wondering if Audi offers lowering springs....ect....

Thanks for the feedback..

Mike

Can't help much Mike and don't know too much about the Lexus or indeed petrol A7. I have the 245ps Diesel which is pretty quick 5.8s to 60mph and 155mph limited top speed. Have 19" rims and otherwise standard. Pics I do have....

Hi Mike,

I havn't modded my A7, but I think that 0-60mph in under 5 seconds is not too shabby.
