That is pretty sick. That looks like an "F". Hope the F-Sport variant shares most of the "look".

*EDIT* whoa... that appears to be the base model. The F-Sport and F models must be insane.

I can see it as well, but then the new MB C-Class Coupe was also compared to the Honda Accord Coupe and it doesn't look anything like it on the road.

oh for the love let it rest folks. Coupes will look like coupes. Sedans will look like sedans. Crossovers will look like crossovers.

I guess this car's profile must look the same too along with most coupes. You can only do so much to the profile of a car.

Reminds me of the Maserati GranTurismo - one of my fav cars!

There was several attempts to steer the conversation from looks which are subjective. But to no avail

The side profile of the RC is pure Japanese

Exactly, I mean a coupe is a coupe after all. There are only so many ways you can shape a door, glass, body lines, etc. Honda was not Lexus's inspiration for the RC...

I agree that the Gran Turismo is gorgeous.............RC 350 has a nice profile but really is not even close to the voluptuous lines of the Maserati. I think that we really can't judge until we see on on the street.

Has anyone heard if Lexus will offer a Conv. version of the New RC? I have heard they are working on it without any introduction time as of yet?
