Default RC 350 F Sport Exhaust, Diffuser, Lowering Springs, Optional 19" Wheels

There's a lot of threads discussing what options are out there for lowering the RC a bit and what aftermarket exhausts are available, but it looks like Lexus actually has both of those covered in fairly nice fashion.

It also shows the optional 19" wheels that are not the same as the standard wheels. Personally I like the standard F Sport wheels better as I think they look fantastic on the RC 350.

Check out this video I just found on Youtube

To think that the f sport would come in a package with the f sport exhaust...but the exhaust that came with the fsport 350 is a restrictive basic pipe. Cant wait for invidia to come out with their system.

The car in the video should be the official rc 350 f sport version for us consumers, with all the bells and whistles.

I am also wanting to know if the rear bumper from the RCF works on the 350. That's what I'd like to do.

when the RC 200T hits the streets, the parts availability is going to go through the roof. performance shops are magnetically drawn to the turbo potential. since the body and shape of the 200T will probably be identical or very close to the 350, I would bet that most of the parts will be perfectly interchangeable by default.

KEYWORD; "PROBABLY" i highly doubt that they will bake it look identical, im sure that they will make it look smaller. If they were to keep it identical what reason wold they have to keep the 350 f sport arount when you could pick up a turbo 200t that does way better gas milage???

if I had to place a bet today, I would say that it is more likely to look identical with a few minor internal mechanical changes (engine, tranny, misc parts) but look extremely similar with many interchangeable parts to the 350.

We'll find out soon enough.
