The front grille is a little weird but the rest of the car is awesome! Hopefully they aren't too expensive. I'll buy one if the price is right.

This is the coolest Lexus to come out in a while.

 

hard to dislike them...the LED bar/swoosh/L-logo beneath each headlight looks to hold the turning signal as well


curious question, how long has Lexus been using 3 memory presets for the seats/mirrors?

 

wow lexus really stepped it big time, looks really good

 

Seems so. I wonder if the LED DRLs turn off when the indicator is activated. I always thought that looked a little weird.

 

good chance it might so there's no discrepency i'm sure...I see many Audi's do it, particularly the A/S5's

 

In fact, RC wheelbase is smaller than 3IS wheelbase, probably to make it more nible (and maybe lighter?). 3IS has wheelbase similar to GS.

 

The door stitching reminds me of the LF-LC…..

This car seems rather premium and as the chief engineer said, its own model with its own engineering and not just a IS coupe with a new body.

 

Any thought on its price?? Anyone

I'm expecting it start at $45K & $55k well equipped.

 

Being that the IS250 non-FSport loaded is about $42-43k, I think that'd be a fair estimate for a RC250/RC200t model

 

Every new photo makes the RC look more and more like a winner all round. The LED headlights, the quality of the interior stitched leather, the attention to detail of every curve on the front/rear end...

 

Thank you lexus for listening!
I love this RC from every angle.

Same here


So it's safe to assume that the F-sport will have the LFA gauge?

 

I don't see why not...I'd hope the LFA styled guage would be a staple across the F-Sport line going forward

 

Hoovey..seems they heard you and added more luxury to the door panels

 

Absolutely love every part of the exterior design except for the front end. I've liked Lexus' aggressive front ends on the IS and LS, but I am struggling with this one.

Why, after so many years (last was pre-refresh RX), are we back to vertical spokes on the grille? Horizontal slats would add some elegance, which I think would be welcome for the non-F sport model. Something like the standard IS grille would have been perfect.

I am loving the evolution of fog lights here. Very cool, and the integration is slick.

Something about the headlights is not quite working for me right now, but I like the overall design.

All in all, this is an absolutely beautiful car. The lines and proportions are stunning, but that front end is just a little too much, I think. Vertical slits + splitting bar + mesh bottom part, all in one grille, is too busy. Too many lines, IMO.

I'd love to see Lexus stroke and update the 3.5L V6 a bit, for use in this car (and others, going forward).

 

I can't wait to see what the RC-F production version will end up looking like. This RC350 is already a winner!!
