Default A friend picked up a RC yesterday

$53K list silver/black well equipped with Nav,adaptive cruise etc.
Looks smaller than I thought but nicer in person than in pics.

Agreed.... I spent some time with a FSport the other night...

The new car smell got me thinking for a new RC F

I agree - saw the car for the first time this weekend and pics do it no justice. Not just saying this because I'm a "Lexus" guy, but the 4 Series and A/S5 are completely pedestrian in comparison to the RC. This car demands your attention from every angle and looks like nothing else on the road.





Congrats to your friend!

I think that's true of the latest Lexus models, especially the NX and RC. They really do have a lot of road presence that you only notice when you see them in person and in motion particularly.

For some reason, these cars look stunning in Silver. Perhaps it is due to Lexus' impeccable paint. I have never seen better, more reflective, deeper, paint on any production car than on Lexus cars.
