Lexus RC Coupe based on GT86/BRZ?

Is it me or does the Lexus RC Coupe look like it is based on the GT86/BRZ architecture?

no. just because we all love our FR-S/GT86/BRZ, not everything is based off of it.

Honestly All of new Lexus line up is sexy. They have outdone themselves.

The LF LC is a higher end coupe, would be a larger platform than the RC. Gorgeous car tho

i don't like the spindle grille in this instance, and the rear somehow looks bland and wonky at the same time. i only like the coupish side profile.
