My point is other than bragging rights which people seems to get caught up on most people wouldn't know if they just drove a car with 495hp or 505hp.

I guess if it comes with less than 500hp people will start posting their customary FAIL, dealbreaker comments.

LMAO at your signature!

I hope it has 495hp so no one buys it, and I can grab one for $500 over invoice.

My guess is no more than 475 hp and base price in the mid $70s.

As we head into auto show season and the RC F starts getting delivered, we will move on to the GS F. Will this be the next big introduction by Lexus? When and where?

Thanks for posting the latest! This is the best implementation of the spindle grill yet. I know we will launch into more paper tiger horsepower wars, but all I want is RC F engine, GS F platform, and practicality of 4 doors. You know Lexus will do it right.

Nice!

Interesting to me it has the carryover headlights. I would have expected separate DRL's/headlights like the other new cars.

Sunroof - I would be so happy if there's a sunroof delete option. Also might have a carbon fiber roof option like RCF.

Headlights - Expect production version to have 'em.

I dunno...I would suspect the final bumper cover is really what we're seeing here, otherwise why not just put a F Sport bumper cover on it to avoid having to Camo it? This bumper cover has the finished shape and the finished grille inserts. If we were going to have separate DRLs then we'd see camo'ed lights here too.

I'm sure the headlamp lenses will be refreshed, but I bet they're going to be the same shape as the ones already on the car.

If you look at all the new full spindle cars, they all have that long pointed nose...RC, IS, GX...
