I am assuming you are talking 2016.
locker (lim. slip diff.)
configurable dynamic mode
bigger brakes: "high performance" vs "performance"
sport suspension with adaptive dynamics
19" wheels vs 18"
driver selectable valved exhaust
171 vs 161 top end

The same differences existed from the beginning in '14. And that just applies to std. equipment because many of the above could also be had on the base as options.

The biggest difference is about 12 grand added to the base price!

Once you get past that, there are other 'S' options (which may not really be optional - such as the performance pack) on the 'S' to push the price up to over 80K before you start.

No, the most obvious difference is the price.
