Well, it certainly sounds amazing. Wonder if any of that acoustic orgasm is synthetic..
Rumor is that at the MMR for the RCF we will see a manual offering, and a new IS-F too. Hopefully it will be a proper manual and not an automated manual.

This isn't the RCF but everyone remembers the LF-LC concept. Apparently it's going to be the most powerful production Lexus ever built. They'll have 3 versions, a base version with the RCF engine, a hybrid version that adds some power, and then a 600 HP+ twin turbo version. It'll be a while until it's out though, but it's interesting news nonetheless.

The LFLC is the only car where the spindle grill actually works. The rest of the car is sleek, aggressive, and futuristic enough for the spindle grill to be appropriate.

I dunno, I think it looks pretty muscular.

I'm not sure I'd go that far. BMW didn't use a V8 in their M3 until the S65, then switched back to inline-6 architecture with the F80M3. I'm not saying I like the S55 better than the S65, very much the opposite. However, the Lexus F cars have always been high displacement (V8 ISF, V10 LFA), so it's nice to see them sticking with it.

If nothing else, as long as the RCF forces BMW to stay on its heels and step up its game in further improving the M line, then I'll be happy. I want as much competition in this segment as possible.

The only thing I don't like about the styling is how the C pillar gets progressively thick where the rear quarter window cuts off. Looks overly chunky compared to how thin the A pillar is.

I think the car looks great, but that angle does not capture its face well at all.
Way better looking here. There's a lot of visual heft to this car in lighter shades... probably looks better in person.

That orange just looks so dull. Reminds me of the Prius orange....
This car would look so much more aggressive and actually pop in that candy red or that blue color.

Car looks sexy. I'd take it over the new m3/4. And that Lexus IRECVXS1573RX looks so alien. Like the seats would engulf you in a membrane while you drive telepathically.

This is the first Lexus to peak my interest since my 98' GS400.
It looks great and has the goods. All it needs its some new shoes! But what car doesn't? Black with a deep saddle interior will work well. |
