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???

The interior and tech on the GS tips the scale towards the GS in my opinion. The exterior of the RC is more aggressive, but I drive on the inside of the car.

Yea the RC is not comfy for long drives and the GS is just nice all around, soft and padded trim everywhere while the RC is all hard and feels less premium. I think the LC will be the more premium sport coupe.

Rudiculous

I personally always prefer a sedan over a coupe. Even as a person with no kids, it's just easier to throw things in the back seat like a backpack or hang dry cleaning. I also think the new GS looks great enough to take on the RC head-on in the looks category. And then the inside, GS hands down is superior IMO

I prefer the GS but if I was just coming off a GS I would probably go with the RC just to have something different.

I think if u get an RC now u will really regret it when this comes out next year.

You're right when it comes to price, but that's for the 2015's. The new 2016s will definitely be in a higher price point but also consider that the new GS incorporates many of the attractive features that the RC has. Plus the GS is a great sleeper car, the RC screams speed. I don't know about you but I like that hidden aspect just something to consider.

Having had both cars i can tell you with certainty that the RC is not an uncomfortable car at all. It is just as plush as the GS. There are no dingy plastics and the inside is uber premium. In Normal mode it is a Grand Touring coupe, very comfortable and composed. But it comes alive in S+ mode. Both are great cars, but the styling of the RC just takes the cake in my opinion. The RC gets TONS of attention.

thank you all. I guess for the same price I will go for the GS. But I want that LC!!

The LC 500 will be north of $100k

You are aware that they share almost the EXACT same suspension right..

And you know that the LC is over twice the price of an RC/GS and a completely different platform.

I prefer coupes over sedans and I have no issue with long drives in my RC F, but the RC350 F sport seats are vastly different so I can't speak on them.




comes down to preference, the GS is nice but I prefer coupes, even having a wife and kid, wife has the family sedan, so I get to stay in my coupe, seeing as I am usually the only one in it m-f driving to and from work.


Wife doesn't work, so she is the kid taxi.

Make sure you know how much back seat room the RC has unless you're never going to have anyone back there. Leg room is almost nil.

I have really grown to like the styling of the RC, but it definitely feels a step below the GS inside, and I'm a sedan guy.

As for the LC, you could buy an RC and a GS for what that LC is going to cost lol

My vote would go to the GS over the RC for interior quality, and I'm a "coupe guy". The GS also handles quite well and is 1 second faster 0-60. (1 second is nothing, so it is just as fast.)
