So supposedly I was amongst the first to drive the RCF in Canada. As soon as it was loaded of the truck, the dealer PDI'd it and I was off!
All I can say is WOW. This was my first time driving an F car and it blew it out of the water for me. Most probably gonna be placing my order very soon.

Coming from a GTR owner, that must be a big complement.

dat dude

Oh yea big time! Lexus really did a great job with this car.

Are you going to be winter driving it with a narrow square setup of Blizzaks? I am curious since when I buy it, I want to be able to drive it all the year round.

dat dude

Most probably I will. The car itself has a great traction system, I pushed it really hard in the rain and it didn't slide at all. I'm quite sure it'll do very good in the winter.
What colour will you get it in?

05RollaXRS

I would get a less "flashy" color, so to speak. I like the Nebula grey or the silver is good as well. I also like the standard wheels the best. I like the red and USB 2.0, but they are too flashy and will attract too much attention. Plus, the lighter colors hide the rock chips quite well.

What color are you planning on getting?

I am also holding out a bit for an RC-F sedan since I need the rear doors to be able to fit by daughter's baby seat. Hopefully, Lexus will announce it soon.

Mine came in on the truck yesterday @ 11:30 am, picked it up @ 7:00pm and yes I was also wowed. I thought my 08 ISF was good all the way up till yesterday @ 7:00pm

Can you write a detailed review? Would like to hear an actual owner's review.

dat dude

I plan on getting it in Orange with a Black interior.
Why don't you get a GSF sedan? It would be one heck of a ride and would eat the RCF any day.

05RollaXRS

I like smaller sized sedans as they feel more agile and more tossable. GS-F wheelbase would be a bit too long for my taste. It might be substantially heavier than the RC-F. That is why I am hoping to get the RC-F in a sedan version (or a next gen IS-F, but I like the RC shape more than that of the IS).

I think there's 0% chance this vehicle would ever be made.

dat dude

As the other poster stated I don't know the probability of one being built anytime soon having said that you can probably get a later model ISF if that's the situation.
Even the GTR has enough room for a baby seat (I think). Why not that haha?

05RollaXRS

LOL. I need the rear doors. Also, I want a high strung V8.

Regarding the RC-F sedan, there is a rumor going around that there is some sedan variant of the RC-F in the works. Whether that turns out to be an RC-F sedan or a new generation IS-F, remains to be seen. I will take whatever that is.

I think you're right, I can't remember if it was Motor Trend or Road & Track, but in an issue a number of months ago they claimed they had inside information on a GS F and IS F coming out at some point. They were right on about the GS F so if their sources are correct, your IS F might be a reality at some point in the near future.

With that being said though, taking into consideration that they had to use three different vehicle chassis to come up with the frame for the RC F and with the front clip being that of the GS, I wonder if it would be possible for them to fit the V8 into the current IS.
