Lexus should fire and get rid of the person who designs the F-sport front grill face for their current model cars. This is the worst ever seen. I hope these go away in 3 years & seriously asap!

Another thing of note is if you check the photos, there is a GS (possible GS-F) sitting next to it, as it has the same quad exhausts as this RC-F prototype and current IS-F.



Also does it have stupid FR-S/BRZ USDM exhaust tips haha



wow that comoflage wrap really works! cant see anything!

Interesting. I think the 4er is more handsome, but smart money goes with reliability. Lotta FR-S in that roofline, c-pillar, and short decklid. The spindle grille looks ridiculous when it's that large AND outlined in plastichrome. It'd probably be much less offensive in black, but I'll probably know.

I really, really like this. Shame there won't be a manual option. I want to see if the new V8 get shoehorned into it now!

Looks great to me

Those that hate the BRZ because of the mustache will hate that frontend even more... wait maybe the BRZ mustache was Toyota designed too and they are just continuing it here?!

Don't care for the waterfall grille, but everything else looks fairly good.

I like, except for the grille, which looks extremely weird the way the top part is angled like that. Just shrink the spindle thing instead of trying to stretch it over the hood lol.
