Absolutely! At 75K, TVD should be standard but from early indicators it is not. So the question of value is definitely not there as Lexus will make you pay for what is standard in competitors.
Lexus should come out with final pricing, final options and horsepower/torque figures.

I am getting very annoyed by the stupid games Lexus is playing. It has been almost 6 months since RC-F was first revealed and only 3 months left till it first lands in the dealerships and Lexus is still busy playing these games.

It would be nice if we got all four in the States, but I'm not banking on it. I do think a hybrid luxury coupe could be a huge hit for Lexus though.

I definitely concur and also make a convertible version as well to compete with the 4 series convert...

BMW has tons of 4 series variants:

428i coupe/vert
428i Gran Coupe
428i xDrive coupe/vert
428i xDrive Gran Coupe
435i coupe/vert
435i Gran Coupe
435i xDrive coupe/vert
435i xDrive Gran Coupe
M4 coupe/vert

The good news is that Liquid Platnium is RC F specific only...

The bad news is that Ultrasonic Blue & Solar Flare look to be available on RC350 F Sport as well.

I'm really digging the "atomic silver"

Is that an RC F specific color?

Is that an RCF or RC F Sport? Badge looks F Sport (unless they changed F badging for the RCF)

Here's a white one that just arrived at Lexus USA with LED lights and Carbon Fiber active spoiler as options. Who's going to be the lucky one to grab this one?

if I got one, rather have regular hood anyways, the standard hood is aluminum and not too much heavier than CF.
