This news couldn't have come at a better time. I was about to cave in and buy the current IS-F, but now i'll definitely wait for the possible RCF and GS F

Rear looks very GSish. And it was also spied with the GS-F sedan.

Rumors are that a GS-F would be here by 2014 or 2015?

That's pretty exciting, I bet it will have top notch dynamics. This will be interesting with Mercedes trading some of its rawness for grip as it implements AWD to chase Audi.

Too bad about the GS's looks though.

Damn, I am really hoping the stacked exhaust tips would go away

I posted here RC's were being rung around the track recently but wasn't aware of any RC F. Not sure if this is an F-sport and a fake hood scoop to throw us off or not. To me the flares seem rather "flared" and those meaty rears are something.

The 4 series coupe drops this fall and the M4 (M3) usually comes 2 years after. So not sure if this is indeed the RC F but if it is then would it debut alongside the RC 350 or wait a year or two?

Interesting to see the GS F catch. Need to start prepping wife

Overall, exciting to see

Actually the car you highlighted is the exact same car with the camo just without the camo

If this is RC it would look nothing like the concept, or maybe with this one they are bridging the IS and GS cause this car definitely has more GS lines and details all over it.

Hard to believe, but today may have revealed two new F models.

is it only me or back of both cars looks exactly the same? I dont have great eyes for looking at camo pics but those tails look 100% the same.

IS/GS coupe doesn't matter. All that does is Lexus is FINALLY making a coupe.
