finally the collectors version of the RCF, I could see this becoming a couple hundred thousand of dollars or even half a mil in the future. maybe even more...

 

i doubt it 6 years later the LFA are are that range and they are 4 times the msrp

 

I don't see this being the case due to the matte finish, the dealers are having a hard time moving the cars. There's currently 6 of them at dealers in the Houston area

 

we havent even had some one ask to buy out GSF 10th anniv or to drive it. Matte paint was the WRONG move the buyer (us) wanted a more hadcore version. Not one thats harder to take care of

And there are more.

Exactly. I would have loved to see, rear seat delete, lightweight battery, Titanium exhaust, Carbon Ceramic brakes. Hopefully saving a couple hundred pounds with a 50 HP increase. Would not have been that hard.

 

 

With all due respect, this is really far fetched. They will be a long time before this car will become a collector. Also, we aren't even sure that it will be legal to drive explosion engine cars in 20 years from now.

 

Personally, I like the car. I may pick one up a few years from now when they come off lease. I could not justify trading my very clean 2015 for the same car just different colors.

 

There are people who like corvettes that buy them for a million dollars. The smartest thing to do with these anniversary cars is to buy them and put them away for 50 years. Thats what I would do. Maybe you wouldn't see the benefits in your lifetime, but your children's if you pass this down. Some classic muscle cars from the 60s sell for hundreds of thousands cause they are barely driven. Cannot believe I had to water down my explanation this much. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean people won't do it. Long term investments people...

 

Agree! Why pay $75,000 for a RCF, when after one year, certified used ones a year old, or two, that look brand new, can be had for little over 1/2 that cost?

Think many of us bought used RCF's that were maybe not the exact car they would order new. But when a used one comes along that looks and smells brand new, for about 1/2 the cost of a new one, we could not resist from getting it!
I originally intended to buy a new RC f sport in the dealers lot, but when I saw a used RCF a few feet away, then discovered the differences, I went for that RCF for just a few dollars more! Yes, my RCF does not have a ML sound system like that RC f sport I looked at, but hearing that v8 sound makes me smile more than an upgraded radio would!

 

This is the most ridiculous thing I have seen on the internet today

It's an anniversary edition, something that manufactures have been doing for years. Doesn't make them anywhere near collector car status. Down the road, it's only going to fetch a few grand more than a regular RC-F. Here's a small list of the many cars that have "anniversary editions" for a particular year, all with much more history than the Lexus "F" series.

2003 Corvette - 50th anniversary
2010 370Z - 40th anniversary
2002 Trans Am - 35th anniversary
2017 Viper - 25th anniversary
2018 M3 - 30th anniversary


None of which are going to be selling for hundreds of thousands more than original MSRP

 

Lol, so very true. Absolutely nothing about the 10th anniversary F that will make it worth 6 figures, ever. Especially with zero performance upgrades over the normal RCF.

Are you high or something?
