Real value is that it's a dependable nice riding car that has the ponies in it to ride hard when needed.
Perfect for daily driving, or in sport plus, and/or paddles, for the need for speed!

Front end turns very aggressively and powering out of corner easily induces oversteer at just tap of the throttle at 1st and 2nd gear speeds. The downshifts under hard braking 4th to 3rd and 3rd to 2nd are furious. Sounds very angry, high strung and snarly.

Only downside was, on some crappy road patches, ride was HARSH on my RCF. However, it is a non-issue for me considering the rewarding experience.

Once I have significant seat time in my RCF, I have been waiting to write a detailed review
bro make a youtube review, there really is barely any good ones for our car from an owner, just testers. plus you have the bleeding edge rcf thats molten pearl with TVD so I know for a fact you will get views , who knows you might even make some money. a million views translates to about $5k. Make the video review bro

Thanks man. I do plan on making a "winding road" style POV video. I don't think there is a good POV video of the RCF so I will try and make one soon.

Great all day road trip in the RCF. This car does all day driving so well. Perfect in early morning north Bay Area traffic with lots of stop and go. Then had lunch in Santa Rosa. Bottom picture of her tucked away in a back alley in town.

Top picture of a quick stop at Lake Hennessy Napa county. The Gods smiled on me as most of Hwy 128 was empty on the way home and I could really open it up, until the wife got scared then I backed off a little. One CHP hiding but my Valentine one picked him up before I rounded the corner.

One guy stopped me at an intersection in Calistoga and asked what kind of car it was as he had never seen one and loved it! How cool is that!

I can't even describe how much I enjoy driving this car. One of the best things in my life.
