Guys, loving the photos and I soon want an orange RC when they finally get around to releasing them here in the UK. But where are the tri-LED headlights that featured in so many of the publicity shots? Do any of the US spec cars get the tri-LED headlights?

Regards

Peter

They are all going through Pre-Delivery Inspections(PDI):

Why are those wheels different than stock? I like them. What are they called?

They are the F-sport 2.0 19" wheels. I thought it was odd seeing a few of those wheels on the RC350's we had, but it does look good. I wanted to see one with the stock wheels in person.

Thanks. Do you know why those RCs showed up at your dealership with those wheels rather than the stock wheels (I find the stock wheels way to busy)? Were they specially ordered by someone at your dealership with those wheels or did your dealership take off the stock wheels and put those 2.0 wheels on?

Interesting...in looking at the stickers that have been posted, it doesn't look like any of these first cars have the variable gear and rear wheel steering yet?

Went and test drove the RC today. It is as beautiful in person as it is in pictures

A few pics...

A few notes...
The rear view mirror is bezel-less. Diddn't know that before:

The key hole is hidden now:

Now the not so good...
This panel looked a little off to me:

I don't know if I like how this looks:

Overall I love it and it drives great. The salesman tried to put me in a lease for $0 down $745/mo at 10k miles. :eek:
