Comments:

The TVD evokes an enormous difference from the Torsen and it's quite perceptible to a driver.

The RC F is not in the same class as the M4--it's above it. The driver experience is outstanding.

So many biased reviews. The worst reviews appear to be from people who are clearly BMW lovers. I'm glad that I don't read reviews about cars before I buy them. Because I may not have bought a RC F if I had...

I love my RC F. I love the way it performs and I love the way it looks. When/If we finally get the ability to tune, the RC F is going to be an absolute beast. It's going to be like the old Supra days...

http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a3786/4296068/
"For Toyota, no car has been more irrelevant to its bottom line than the twin-turbocharged 1994 to 1998 Supra Turbo. After all, compared to the Camrys, Corollas and Tacomas that are the company's bread and butter, the Supra Turbo sold in infinitesimal numbers. Yet, despite that, the Supra Turbo is a legend--and the quickest car the company has ever sold in North America. Because when hardcore tuners laid their hands on the Supra Turbo, legends were made. And it's the only Toyota that performance enthusiasts have completely embraced."

We just need the ability to tune...


It also scores high for attracting women, which is important to me being a single guy. Just today I had a cute waitress ask me what car I was driving.

"A Lexus," I replied.
She asked, "That black one out there?" (She was pretty sure it was mine... I know that she seen it before she asked me)
I replied with a smile, "Yeah."
She exclaimed, "I've never seen a car like that!"
"Most people haven't," I stated.

It lead into a long conversation that I'm not going to get into. I was merely showing how the car alone initiated this scene. I'd like to see a BMW M4 do this... I get this a LOT with my RC F. I'm single and loving it! Forget the reviews...

When it comes down to driver experience, the F emerges as the superior car in every way. You can keep the torque induced oversteering alternative.

Time for you to start praising the car gods.

Great... there goes my warranty. I'm glad I didn't get the extended warranty.

This is awesome news!
