Does anyone have any insight or opinion if Lexus will follow the route that AMG and M have gone with making their cars AWD? It would be nice to have AWD on these sports cars to make them more drivable in all conditions and traction.
Just curious...

Just a guess, but for the immediate future no, I suspect RWD. Lexus probably won't entertain AWD until they start making powertrains with enormous amounts of torque. Currently for F and F-Sport the identity is a 'fun to drive', balanced, and engaging drive.

Yeah to echo Hoovey's sentiments, F cars aren't powerful enough to necessitate it

RNM GS3

There are 2 F cars and both maybe discontinued since nobody is buying them.

I would be surprised if this F thing is around much longer.

Trust me when I say "F cars" aren't going anywhere anytime soon 😉! The future of F cars will be very exciting!
And these cars aren't made to sell 10,000 units a year....and all 3 F models are HIGHLY desirable by those who truly know what they are. If you haven't owned or driven one, I suggest you do and you'll be highly satisfied 😎.
Lexus over priced the RCF and GSF this the slower sales and huge discounts. But as a reliable performer, they are overall 'better' cars than AMG/M cars.

Hope you are right but F division needs the resources to compete and the cars need to be part of the initial model planning not an afterthought like the RCF and GSF were. All M and AMG cars are developed from day 1 as being a key model therefore they allocate the proper resources.

I personally like the RCF a lot and have driven many times on the track and street.
Its a really good car but needs more support from Lexus, it has yet to be updated in anyway after 4years in the market.
