driveability of V8 >>>>>>> V6 TT. ISF engine has been proven to be very reliable with minimal issues. BMW turbo i6, not so much. Now compound that with a higher boost version of that i6

Oh ok I guess your quite rich and money is not a problem for you. For the rest of us non rich guys, we like to spend our money smartly. 10k for a tune up break job is outrageous....atleast to non rich people.........

I agree, but comparing a gtr to an rc is like comparing a s-class to a 3 series.

If you pay $10k for a GTR brake job, you're getting hosed. That includes all 4 new rotors and pads. Not needed in most cases (new rotors) and if you want to change rotors (maybe tracking the car), there are much better rotors for much less (AP Racing J hooks - about $2300 for all 4 and then throw in some Endless MX72 brake pads for ~$750 for the full set. Changing these items is cake and will improve the car's braking performance. Lots of rumors relative to GTR maintenance.....

Well the GT-R is a super car in its own right. 
While a used GT-R can be had for price of a new RC-F, they are two different vehicles. I like that there are options for buyers so test drive both and see what fits your needs or wants.

I just don't like artificial or synthetic products. In sure it even smells different or gives off some strange odor. NuLux is just the modern day equivalent Corinthian Leather (a huge negative connotation). We're all thinking it ;p Plus, in my mind, I would know its not real.
I find leather very low maintenance, wipe it down once or twice a year with damp cloth, done!

Not having the option of real leather, and making vinyl standard, on a Lexus, is nuts.
When is Lexus going to wake up?
WE NEED TO DEMAND A LA CARTE OPTIONS, like Porsche (and other German OEMs).
If I want vinyl seats and the TVD in the RC F, I should be able to get that.
