Nope. It's production version. Already displayed on Lexus international website.

Wow, it's nice to see the production(near-production?) photos release! I'm relieved to say that I am pleased with the design. The front end didn't win me over the first glance, but the more I look at it, the more I like it. The side profile is to die for, it's very attractive. I hope I can convince the wifey to get this over the CT.

Did a quick and dirty photoshop of the IS F-Sport grille on the front of the RC. I think it looks better than the stock grille, whose strong vertical slats reminds me a bit of Lincoln's design style.

The car is growing on me; a lot better than the 3IS IMO. Can't say its my cup of tea yet.
Those rear black vents look like cheap, black plastic; i would have prefer just having openings instead of a grill on them. The spindle grill still hasn't grown on me yet, so i guess im bias against the front.

Am I the only one who can't really stand that grille? We've been used to horizontal slates but the RC is vertical and damn, it's HUGE.
I'd go all the way with the F Sport in this particular model.

that's it.
comparing to another popular coupe, the G37, we see the RC is a bit longer and wider but with a MUCH shorter wheelbase
Length 183.1
Width 71.8
Height 54.8
Wheelbase 112.2 in
