There are a couple other Factory vs. RR/RF threads floating around here where people weigh in. This is the first I found but it's not the only.

4. RF comes with just one color scheme and it is the best scheme (for me),
5. Forged aluminum wheels

^^ What he said, plus to sweeten the deal, you can now get a new RF for the price of and RR! At least on this side of the pond anyway.

- Aftermarket options much cheaper and more options
- 14 MY thousands less than a 16
- MY 17 coming out in the Spring with significant refinements

Not sure I agree with the "thousands less" point? There's only 1 2014 Factory on Cycle Trader under $14k and it looks a little rough. The three best options are $20.5k, $17.5k+ and $14.5 respectfully. A new RF is less than two of those. I guess if you look long enough, you can find one for a lot less? However, the other points I can�t argue with.
