Might be pretty, but technically it is as crap as today's Alfa Romeo.

Saw a grey rcf pull up next to me. It was at night but from what I saw it looked really nice. And the v8 sound as he took off

The performance package with carbon fiber roof and wing is not available until later this year, and once it is available the torque vectoring differential will not be a stand alone option, so it worked out perfectly for me. I want the roof and wing to color match the car. Every once-in-a-while luck is on my side!


Oh, and one more thing: No moon roof.
Color matching will be an option for the carbon package, at least for every thing except the roof.

Just on the 1-month they've been able to be ordered in Japan, the RC-F has already doubled its 2-year global sales goal.

The standard RC is selling at over 2000% sales per month of its intended goal.

I like it,
Wasn't too fond of the grille on the non-RCF, but its grown on me.
Its not pretty for sure, but its definitely aggressive (looks like its going to eat you).


This is one of those cars that has good sides and bad sides. I think its worst view is looking directly straight at the front end.
This car needs to be seen at angles, and I think it looks much better in person than in pictures (like the IS)

Big fan of the car but I don't see anything near these numbers holding up for long. Everything will even out within a year and it will sit on lots.

New Lexus RC 350 F Sport

So I went to my closest Lexus dealer to check out this new car. It looks pretty good, I loved the one in Infra Red color. So did the usual walk through and test drove it and listened to the audio system. I thought it was pretty sweet. Next comes the sales pitch to try and run you down. It was stickered at $53.5k so they wanted to see if I wanted to trade in my 10 series so I said why not. (I was only looking and not trying to buy).

So the sales guy came back and gave me his sheet of paper of how much I would be paying and it showed how much they are willing to give me for my 10 series. I tried so hard not to laugh in their face. They offered me a whooping $14,500 , 100% stock and 0 accidents not even a car door ding, 24k miles. Also it was at 3.69% APR for 60 months, lol. I got my FR-S with 1.8% APR from my credit union already.

The sales guy wasnt too happy I took an hour of his afternoon and just walked away
