Anyone see this rcf at sema? Wonder if it had any engine modifications.

Not me. That means there won't be an IS F this generation.

Still looks nice, though.

I'm wondering if Lexus will make an LS F with the 2UR-GSE + hybrid system.

I doubt they would make an LS F. The S63 AMG is basically on its own. If I recall correctly, BMW came out and said they werent going to make an M7.

IS Fi is not off the table

The GS F's are arriving to the port in the next week or so!

I've had quite the bit of seat time in the RC F on and off the track, currently driving the show circuit #RSEAF from Lexus Southern Regional. Its a remarkable car with tons of character. There is quite a bit of talk of the weight and while it is heavier than one would want, its not bad and all the independent track tests show its pretty much toe to toe with the M4. The handing and other capabilities are amazing and the optional TVD really is something.

5th gear just did a comparo vs the M4 and its a really great unbiased review. The RC F is barely off the M4's track time.

We've done quite a few RC F's. Our very own @kDot_Vossen owns a RC F as well

So I passed an RC-F on the way home yesterday and I thought "Damn, that's a sexy car". The resemblance to the twins is obvious. Then I got ahead of him and looked in the rearview...

ACKKK!!!! WTH, Lexus?!?!

No matter how it looks from the side/rear, I could never bring myself to buy this.

To each their own.

I think the front end looks fine.

Yoda · 01-08-2016, 02:31 PM

I just wish it was not so heavy

daiheadjai · 01-08-2016, 02:46 PM

The front end doesn't work on all models (SUVs for example), but I think it looks great on IS, CT, RC and GS models.

Face it though: the internet will always rag on Lexus and Toyota, no matter what they do.

I used to love the look of Lexuses (Lexi?). I thought the original GS300 was gorgeous. But this latest grill treatment looks hideous to me all down the line.

Same goes for Acura -- can't stand the beak.

I really feel you on the Acura. I really wanted to get one but just can't get over all that chrome and the design of them.

IS F is just an all around better car but I was really hoping that the RC F was going to be an 86 but with a tuxedo.
