$40-100,000 :crazy2: that's quite the markup for an f series i dont know why the first rendering really reminds me of the 7th gen celica... maybe its the hood scoop (actually its the whole hood) |
I am glad Lexus is going allot more hardcore with the new F.....love to see test between the Lexus, c63 coupe, new m3' and rs5 |
M3 and rs5 will still be on top in performance Posted via RS Mobile the fact that you can get a real lexus coupe for 40000 8s gonna apeal to a lot of people |
100k.... :heckno: I dont think the M4 is going to be 100k... (even if loaded with Bmw individual equipement..) What makes Lexus think they could outsell the benchmark and have a higher sticker as well :facepalm: |
OP, thanks for the post. RC F: ----------------------------- The RC F looks amazing on the sides, though this is just an artist's sketch/impression. The proposed V8 5.0L looks like a naturally-aspirated engine with 455HP. Lexus could have "upped" the ante by turbo charging it, but I think the proposed V8 5.0L is NA, which is GOOD because the next M4 and the next RS5 (due probably in 2016) are V6 turbo/supercharged engines producing around the same 455ish HP. The torque #s are good though, which are better than the current M3 (and probably M4 as well) and the RS5. However, one big issue is the proposed price: $100,000 (or a little more). It is too high, price wise, to compete with the M4, RS5, and C63 AMG. RC ---------------- Good price point. Will see like hot-cakes. Great selection of engine types. I wonder how the 3.5 V6 will do in terms of performance. The 3.5 V6, I believe, is a more powerful engine than the next gen 4 series (highest model, M excluded) and the current S5, in terms of the litres involved, but we will need to see the HP output before conclusions can be drawn. |
I might be serious in saving up and purchasing the RC in a year or two after it gets released. I'm anticipating how the specs for the non-F RCs turn out. Spindle grill growing on me Posted via RS Mobile |
Im interested in seeing how the Hybrid turns out |
I can dig it.. too bad it'll probably look like a 4x4 compared to the artists renditions.. looks good though! |
5.0L and only 455hp? kinda on low side for today's standard. oh yea, it's just an IS coupe, why are they calling it RC? |
Timpo wins the award for most replied to with this: :facepalm: |
