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.

Thread would be much better if you did some legwork and posted some comparison pictures ;)

I think it does. More so the Concept 86, though.

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

It is based entirely off the IS platform

No it doesn't but motherfuck that is a nice looking coupe.

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

It has borrowed a few ques from, but Lexus is Toyota , after all!

cyde01 11-05-2013 03:11 PM

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.
