Now there's an in-the-know post. Mix % for the packages!

Are the Premium and Executive Packages exclusive to Canada? If not, what do they consist of?

Thank you.

Disappointingly high pricing. I expected mid 40s max in line with the starting price of an A5 and 4. Lexus always gave you the better value proposition, but not with a 54K starting price tag even if it is better equipped than the 9-10K cheaper Germans.

Damn that's very expensive. You are almost better off going to a BMW since they are cheaper and have better handling competitor.

Not sure how this pricing would stack up vs BMW once you do a like for like comparison.
Anyone done the math yet that can share?

Just wrote this to Lexus on their facebook I feel it is well deserved. I was eagerly awaiting the RC and I feel screwed by a company I believed in. I would suggest you all make your grievances known with Lexus's FU Canadians policy on facebook publicly so that they get the idea we wont just bend over and take it.

Hi Lexus I wanted to ask why you hate Canadians? I was waiting eagerly for the Lexus RC and ignored the bmw 4 series and its competitors which are priced similarly in USA and Canada at 40-44k. But then I just saw that the American RC is 43k and the Canadian is 54k. Why do you hate Canadians, what did we ever do to you? Why do you feel like giving Canada the middle finger? This is incredibly insulting. When comparing the RCF its 62k to 82k Anyway I just wished to express my feelings and give you a big old **** YOU back Lexus. You are now dead to me and I will do my best to spread the word to all other Canadians how you feel you can **** us and get away with it. Go buy a BMW or other luxury car guys its obvious Lexus does not want Canadian customers except as suckers. PS: Audi A5 starts at 44, bmw 4 starts at 45, mercedes C coupe 45, cadillac ats coupe is 43, and GUESS WHAT? All are just a bit more than their american counterparts. Lexus is telling us Canadians we are stupid ****s, dont stand for it, say FU Lexus with me.

Anyone hear anything re when the RC will show up at dealers? I heard "in two weeks" time from my dealer this morning, interested if anyone else has heard anything.

Thumbs up

My dealer in the No Virginia area told me yesterday that they expect their first shipment within the next two weeks. So your information seems correct.

Default Canadian Pricing

This is from an Ontario dealership, not sure if it varies elsewhere in Canada:
