I'd definitely take the RS5 and F-Type over the RC F - both are super clean, classic designs.

I would take an RS5 over the RC-F for the clean, timeless looks alone, along with the interior.

GT350(R) should be the Ford car compared, or the ZL1 possibly for Camaro.

Any input?

Really wish the IS-F would make a comeback. The impracticality of the two-door is a deal-breaker here.

I would argue that a 400+ hp anything is impractical.

Haha! Doesn't seem to stop most people who subscribe to Club Lexus, where every car is too slow and has to have 100 more horsepower than the competitors.
