I'm hoping for low 70s. Did someone say ORANGE?!?!?!!? Like the CCSR? I was actually secretly hoping for the LFA yellow, but I'm sooooo in!

If the wager is actually on then my guess is $76,252 for the most loaded package possible.

Does someone understand the difference between the trim levels? The ISF came with basically two... base, and NAV/ML+. Finding a non NAV, non ML+, non sunroof totally base ISF is like finding a unicorn. The adaptive cruise control option was also tough to find. I'd say over 90% of them are loaded but with no adaptive cruise.

So my guess is $73,000K for whatever trim level has navigation and the upgraded stereo. Basically $5k over a similarly optioned ISF.

Id guess priced right at ISF prices my sticker was 68,XXX so Id guess 69,XXX. This is a halo car so they arent selling volume just few hundred per month. I wouldn't be surprised if it was base model 69,999 loaded out 79,999.

Ok guys we have hope! Check this out:

http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/15/2...d-62000-64200/
2015 M3: $62,000
2015 M4: $64,200

If Lexus prices the RCF above 70k, then it's no longer competitive. For 6-10k difference I would take a VERY serious look at the M4 before I even consider the RCF. I know, Lexus bundles a lot more features for their prices, but your average buyer doesn't care or understand until they sign the paperwork and realize they spent 10k more than they were initially planning.

So, with that said, I think there is hope that the RCF wil be low/mid 60s. I'm now thinking maybe 62 base and 67 for ML/Nav package, and then 72 for Carbon. Thoughts?

i simply don't see how rcf can be priced the same and below the current isf

base price is bs. the previous m3 also had low base price, but all the ones in the lot are a lot more expensive than isf

If the RC-F outperforms the M4/M3 on the track, all these relative price point talk is irrelevant. People will buy the RC-F even if it is a little more expensive than the Bimmers.
But my estimate is that the RC-F will be going for 72K loaded.

Mid 60's to low 70's fully loaded, Lexus will wanna stay competitive otherwise why make the RC-F at all if they didn't wanna compete against the Germans, not just in terms of performance but dollar to dollar.

With a 200 a month sales goal I think price will be irrelevant. While all these cars compete in class most minds are made up on what one wants. Lexus has their entry now for people that want what they consider one of the best driving experiences.

One of the major reasons for buying purchase is actually that it is from Lexus.

Also note the M3/M4 had a significant price jump from the last model.
