And I know the LC is in a different class and I was just teasing the OP and if he has the money why not?
Some people can't take jokes.....

Exact? So you are saying the spring rates, shock damping and sway bars are all exactly the same? I highly doubt it. I'm not even sure there is such a thing as "almost" and "exact".

RC is heavier, so the suspension can't match the GS anyway. It can be close but not exact.
I'd take the GS. 2 more doors means less structural reinforcement and a lighter chassis. It's also quicker to 60. The RC is a good looking car and definitely turns heads but the cockpit feels cramped to me and the seat coolers are also weaker.

currently have a regular GS 350 2013. trading in for an F Sport. dealer gave me same lease price for GS and RC F sports. GS has some incentive. while l like my GS, it's sort of boring. the RC more sportier, but smaller. having a hard time paying same price for RC when I can get a GS for same price. Thoughts???
I do too.

The GS 350 and RC 350 have the same engine and do 0-60 in 5.6 secs

Anybody here that would not like their 4GS 1 second quicker to 60? Would make it just about perfect IMHO

1 second faster (from 5.6 sec. to 4.6 sec.) 0-60 mph time would take an additional 90 to 100 horsepower on a 4,175 lb RWD car with a quick-shifting automatic transmission.

The RC 350 F Sport is rated at 5.6 secs on the Lexus website not 5.7. So they are identical. The RC F is 4.4 secs and the GS F is 4.5 secs.
