Is that a package for the track edition?
Or is that the new track edition?

The Track Edition RC F debuted for 2020..

For 2021 & 2022 it was renamed “Fuji Speedway Edition”

Looks stunning! Best color on the RCF. Looks close to USB 2.0 with some matte in it.

I love the interior but I’m not sure about the matte blue paint. The matte white and grey are nicer to me.

I like the color! For a 2022, surprised they didn’t update the infotainment like the new NX

Much nicer interior IMHO than the previous ALL red ones... it was just simply too much freaking red. When lexus does it right, it looks great, but they also for whatever reason go overboard it stuff just look gawdy to me.

I'm very glad that there are blue accents but the entire interior isn't a solid color. I also noticed that they changed the airbag on the 2022's (all RCFs). Where previous air bag covers were just flat, the newer one has that circular line all the way around it, much like what the aftermarket folks were wrapping and stitching the leather ones. Seems like Lexus took a cue off that. And also the lexus L emblem in the center of the air bag is silver now instead of the same matching lower trim color that they used all all previous years.

I dig it.

I like they are numbered too.... AND they only made 50? that makes them a little bit more desireable

They "missed a bet" IMHO since they used the blue carbon fiber as accents in the interior, but didn't use it on the roof or hood or elsewhere on the exterior. Yah, I know they'd only make 50 of them so that's a lot of expense...but they could have done it for those 50 cars. The non fuji edition gets close to that pricepoint with all the options-so you end up in a Fuji edition without TVD and instead a huge wing on the rear. I'll keep mine, TYVM.

^^^^That splitter is stock on all RCF's since 2020 and comes either painted body color or with the Carbon Fiber look.

They need to increase the wing height by 1 inch every year

I'd trade in for the faster one in a heart beat
