not really.
there are a bunch of rcfs on ebay selling in the 60's practically brand new.

i dont think the rcf is selling all that well. ive seen a bunch on dealer lots.

same may go for gs-f, although I think lexus may make less of them and learn from oversaturating the market with f models.

That is true for alot of cars but really this GS model was made on point. You cant say the 2013 is better than the 2015 or vice versa. I mean They are the exact same car with one having a 8spd and the other having a 6spd. Which really didnt do nothing IMO

It's good that the RCFs aren't selling well. Maybe once I'm done with my GS lease I can steal one!

I want that cluster.... and that V8.

I say they should bring back the IS F cause it looks like something is missing from the F lineup.

Don't worry, if it stickers in the mid 80s there will be big discounts to clear the lots. That car is simply not going to compete at that price point. Lexus just isn't there yet. For that I'll buy an Audi S6/S7, Mercedes CLS550, BMW 550 (at less money) etc.

As to the styling, but the time they actually bring the car out it's going to be ready for a mid life refresh. I'm still dumbfounded by how long it's taking to bring it to market after making the official unveiling of the car.

In case you guys & gals missed it...

Lexus International put out some great photos of the Lexus GS F out in the Sonoran Desert

GSF front end is so much nicer than the one on standard GS.

If the lease pricing is reasonable I may consider it.
//M3 is on the top of my list right now to replace my 535i.

Are those specs at the site mentioned above correct or am I just reading this wrong. Front wheel drive? Front & Rear? "Driven Wheels = FR. Nice 470 HP!

The 2UR-GSE specs will be the same as the RC F w/ US Spec HP of 467 HP

&

DRIVE WHEELS

Rear-wheel drive with TORSEN® limited-slip differential* or available Torque Vectoring Differential (TVD)


** I bet the GS F will only come with TVD

Rear ASC speakers... I thought this car was going to be quieter than the RC-F. So why add more artificial sound now coming from the rear?
