Default Any guess on pricing of the RC?

Will there be several versions of the Lexus RC? Will there be a RC 350, an RC FSport & then an RC F? What is the pricing looking like at this point?

Yes on the versions. No on the pricing.

Insider information reports (and subject to change)

Base RC350 $45K
Base RC F $75K

Adding options we're talking $5-10K+

Truthfully I'm not sure. Though I'd venture a guess at the 2013/14 GS as a good template as to what to expect

My guesstimate is 3-4k more than an IS350.
Base:
RC 350: 43k
F-Sport: 47k
RC F: 67k

I really hope this car MSRP's at 45k but the Ray Catena Lexus in Freehold NJ told me this RC is replacing the SC model and to expect prices around 80k. I personally don't know any info on the car other than that is what the dealership told me 2 weeks ago.

This is what I've been told:
Base is $45.5k (no sunroof, no nav, no heated/ventilated seats)
F Sport is $51k
F Sport Plus is $56k
Luxury is $53k

RC F is $71.5k
Performance is $75.5k

F Sport is 55% of the build.

I sure hope they make the F Sport Plus, will be interesting if they also bring this to the IS in '15

So $5k more than IS350?

I'm guessing it's like the luxury package that can't be had on the IS350 F Sport, like cooled seats, leather, tilt-down mirrors, etc. Just a guess.

I can't remember everything I was told and I wasn't allowed to snap-shot any information I saw. The information I provided was what I was able to jot down.
Keep in mind that RC packaging will be similar in ways to the IS. Meaning on F-Sport you get Nu-Lux, no memory seats, rain-sensing wipers, etc. I would use this as a basis in judging RC builds. Since I was told all of this information (three weeks ago) things could have changed. The information I have provided is Lexus official, but that's all I can say about that. We should all see a public release on pricing here in a month or two when dealers may begin to place RC orders which are expected to start being built in July/August, and then ship in August/September. What gets me is the NX final design still hasn't been released to the public and is supposed to start being built in June and then release in August, before the RC. That's another conversation for another thread.
