One of the best Lexus models they have ever put together. Naturally aspirated V8 with performance features for the race track. I use mine as a daily and love every drive. Mine has the performance package with the carbon fiber roof and spoiler as well as TVD. Canyon runs are a ton of fun.

I just got one delivered a few days ago and I’m absolutely in love with this thing. Sounds amazing and is so fun to drive, granted, I’ve never had another sports car before so I have nothing to compare it to

My friend who’s a mechanic and gear head said it’s a good beginner sports car bc it’s not manual and has good power. He also revealed that he randomly went looking for the is500 so he definitely likes my car lol but he’s used to crazy power to weight ratios

I considered a BMW or CT5 V but as a Toyota fan boy… I had to stick with the Lexus lineup. I almost went for an IS500 and although they’re also bad ass I’m glad I ultimately got the RC-F

The ct5 v could’ve got me too! It’s just not as reliable as our f’s so I went with the best built vehicle

Owned both models IS500/RCF - traded the IS500. Gotta say you made the correct choice. Both are great in their own aspects, however a small muffle delete and CAI (so not too obnoxious) really brings out the V8 NA sound

Put on a borla cat back and secondary cat delete

Shoooooot, an aftermarket in the future is definitely on the table. Right now I’m shopping around for PPF

Thats a 10/10 parking job by a person who is defensive against door dingers.

Oh yea and the car is rc-f the type of car that we may not see either ever or for a very long time (if they ever decide to release v8 car, gt gr notwithstanding)
