Default New RC Refresh

Has anyone heard anything about the next RC refresh? Whether it be the engine, body, interior, etc...

Should expect to see a refreshed RC for the 2018MY. It seems like Lexus refreshes models around 3-4 years. Expect to see revised exterior styling and new larger infotainment screen. Probably won't see the new TT V6 (shown in the LS) until the full redesign in 2021.

I heard a rumor they may discontinue the RC for lack luster sales.

With how much R&D that went into the RC, I highly doubt Lexus would discontinue the RC before a refresh. The RC will probably go through the normal 8-10 year cycle before discussions of discontinuation.
