Lets starts with the engine. Its a tweaked version of the 5.0 liter V-8 in the IS F bring the horsepower from 416 to 460. 460 horsepower, dang! It will be mated to a 8-speed automatic gearbox that will send the power to the rear wheels. The RC F shares its chase with the IS sedan so yes they can seat four (2+2) people. The V-6 RC coupes are expected to have all-wheel-drive as an option, which will be awesome.
The exterior looks awesome. It starts strong and powerful and smooths off to a spoiler that deploys at 50 mph. However it does not loose that Lexus fines. To distinguish it from the normal RC it also has a carbon roof. Inside its nothing less then you would expect from Lexus, stylish and awesome.
The RC F is due to be out to the public later this year starting around $65,000 for the RC F and $40,000 for the RC. Im happy about that because it should stay around a lot longer than the LFA.
This car has ELKIN written all over it (figuratively, of course)
