2016 Lexus RC F Review

Take one look at today’s sports car landscape and the truth is undeniable: The 2016 Lexus RC F is the last of a dying breed. Naturally aspirated, V8-powered, rear-wheel drive cars aren't really found, outside of American muscle cars.

Definitely a car I'll own if I got the money to waste
You want reliability and power, this is definitely the way to go specially if you wanna keep the car for a very long time.

How the fuck can you call this the ANTI LEXUS when it's a fucking Lexus. Lexus started making performance cars back in 2008 with the great ISF stop acting like this is the first Lexus to be about performance that line is getting old

Anywho this car is epic the looks sound and interior are 10 outta 10. It's the only V8 high performance Japanese coupe. Rare beast it will become a nice collectors car/rare car in the future. As a first generation model it's pretty much a badass first Gen. Love that V8.

I'm a Lexus fan, but please bring back the IS F. I'll take that over the RC F anyday

For the money, the F Type is a better choice. It sounds good, it also has a nice interior, and personally I think it looks better. But most importantly, the ride is comfortably in an F Type. The only advantage the RC F has is Lexus reliability, though I haven't heard bad things about F Type reliability thus far.

Not sure why Toyota/Lexus makes their performance/sport cars so painful for the back. A GT86 is also fun, but it wreaks havoc on my back. You could daily drive an F Type, I doubt anyone would daily the RC F.

Had the 2012 ISF--RC F is leagues above the IS F in everyday. A correction for the reviewer: the carbon rubs a 4.2-4.3 0-60

[siamiam]

how tall is Dan the reviewer?

i would like to pick up one of these on the used market some day

[kamata]

I am probably one of the few that would buy this car for the looks and the engine sound...God...I love this car!

You guys should include your soundtrack your video descriptions. You usually include some good music.

Corvette grand sport sounds like a better option for the price

[andreakatickles]

Looks way better than Bmw m4 the Bmw is an old mans car

[SBlue]

Imagine this car light and with a manual. It would be insane.

nice looking car, but for the price tag i would get a dodge viper

[xigix]

i'm sure one day Lexus will bring noise canceling technology in car

[SSS-mpth]

No idea why Lexus decided to jam 3 chasis together. The only thing that is good is the NA V-8 and the seats.

Oh and Ah-boot!

[blaze]

80k? think I'd rather get a vette

[frankcastle]

More back ground music will make this video better. I miss the skinny guy lol.

[VictorZell]

US$80k is still better than the AU$150k [US$113.5k] they want to drive away in an RC-F.

[sean_tr]

Nah. There're so many better options at that price tag.
