Looks amazing. This orange one has different wheels and also the carbon package on it.
Cannot believe Lexus nailed the stance on this one. Wish the spoiler had been deployed. Would have looked even more aggressive.

It's an aggressive and polarizing color, to say the least....
But I think it looks sick and can't wait to see these on the road (except it'll make me want to trade-in my ISF to get one in blue or red).

Hardest color to photograph... Since the temperature is constantly changing..

What pics fail to depict is that the front of the car doesn't look long anymore, its more round now and thus making the car look like it has a very short wheelbase.. If they extended the hood out more it would look a ton better but in person it looks like a Kia with more sharp curves on the bumper.
IMO it won't grow on me, it has too much going on and the car looks way too bubbly and less of the "sleek" look we get from current model BMW's and exotic cars.

RS-5, RC-F, RS-5, RC-F....
That dang interior (center stack).... just might push me to the Audi. I was so hopeful. I still have another year before I start looking to turn in the GS, so we'll see. Maybe the GS-F will be out by then.

Other than the nose bulge, there is absolutely nothing "bubbly" about the car. I am not a fan of bulge on the nose, but many colours seem to hide well.
It has huge big fender flares especially on the rear to hide the wide track and huge 285 section tires on the rear. Still, "muscular" is the expression. Not bubbly. The stance and wide fender flares both front and back are simply a killer. That is why I said, finally Lexus got the stance right on a car where there is not an atrocious wheel gap or the tucked-in look.
The rear and side angle simply trounces the M4 in every way.

Anyways, not a hater here, I was hoping for more from Lexus when I saw this car in person. Sadly I would never consider buying this car.

I like how you're trying to change the opinion of someone that has seen the car in person.. nothings going to change my opinion so your thoughts doesnt mean anything to me.. I have thoroughly looked through the car and came to my conclusion. Some will like it, some won't. My opinions are not singled out as comments from other people at Cars&Coffee were the same as mine.

I am just stating how I don't buy any of your "bubbly" argument (and so do none of the other people). Be happy and content with your IS-F and remain satisfied that your car works best for you. You predicted the RC-F would sell less than the IS-F. However, only because of the subjective shape of a nose, it sounds highly improbable.
Clearly, the proportions of the car are muscular and there is nothing round about the car other than the hood nose bulge. I know 100% when I see it in real life, I will like it even more than I do in pictures inspire of not being a fan of the nose bulge.
You seem to forget there are plenty of people on this board who saw it in real life and said quite the opposite that pictured don't do justice to it. Your opinions are just that. Your opinions. Only subjective.
