Lightbulb A 2019 Already??

Forgive me if this is a duplication thread. I did look thru the first page and did not see anything of sorts?

I "assume" you folks have seen this already?

http://cartrifles.com/2019-lexus-rcf/

This certainly piqued my interest:

"However, some rumors said that we should expect one more engine option and that is 4.0-liter V8 petrol engine with 600 horsepower and 471 pound-feet of torque."

But this kicked me between the legs:

"When finally comes to the market, 2019 Lexus RFC will cost around $100,000 and that is predicted base price only. However, its main competitor should be Toyota Scion".

Seriously though, the "Scion"
If anything I would've thought at least the new "Supra!"

There is a lot wrong here...

"RFC"

"Toyota Scion"

and ... "4.0-liter V8 petrol engine with 600 horsepower and 471 pound-feet of torque"

Well, considering we have heard nothing of this engine to date, I doubt it. The new LS engine is 3.5L tt with 415 hp. The 2020 Toyota Supra is rumored to be an I6tt in the 400 hp range. Isn't the LCF getting a big engine, is that just a rumor? I doubt Toyota has a 600hp 4.0 liter V8 in the works, but who knows.

Just spreading the news around thats all. Though I don't "believe" everything I read. I just calls em like I see em. Also, if I typed "RFC" it was entirely by accident.

I don't like these websites that just write whatever they feel like and "predict" what the car will have or change etc etc... they just spit out things without any real facts. I especially love the sites where they tittle it "Official specs and price" and when you open it, it reads: "this is what we think the official specs and price will be"... But all they did in this one was state the already known specs of the current car and then threw a rumor about a 600hp engine, which is more likely the rumor about the "LC-F" that is going around... so, fake news ... although it would be nice to have 600hp

If that is true, it's main competitor would be another Lexus. a 100k RCF or 100k LC500?
