Yes, it is very soft compared to the leather in my old GS.

Isn’t the auto rear spoiler only available on the premium and carbon package versions? This one has the spoiler deploy button left of the steering.

Speed-activated rear wing is standard on all base RC Fs. This explains why it’s literally the only button on this stripper.

I'm thinking of dropping in the weekend and offering 35k.

Thoughts?
Looks like a great car. Did you happen to stop by the dealership?

Soo...Looks like it got sold.

I did swing down last week to check it out as I don't recall ever seeing one in person. Ironically enough I was behind an rc200t the other day.

THe F had snow/ice on the back window and the roads were still salt covered so I didn't want to test drive it. Yes. I do care about other people's cars. Was going to go back this week since the rain washed the roads clean.

The front end looked way better in person. I was worried I'd hate it. The pictures don't do it justice. Good roof line. Good overall lines. Unlike the front end, the door ding protectors looked even worse in person.

​​​​​​We'll see where my fun car search leads next. Spring is coming soon.

Also...

If you are going to troll, would you really pick a forum that gets half a dozen posts a day to troll? Get your head out of your ***.

I still think it could lose a few pounds and benefit greatly from a gear swap. Probably why they went for 2.93 to 3.13 a couple of years into sales. 3.55 would really open it up. I went from 2.87 to 3.55 in my old Corvette, the change would be amazing on this car.

​​​​​​Anyways. Tata for now

For the post face lift models, the rear center console is now include in the “Premium Package”. This means a post stripper RC F shouldn’t have rear center console.

Stripper back seat pic from pre face lift model from original post. I’ll try to find a stripper post face lift rear seat.

Found a post face lift MY2020 RC F stripper. It’s not fully bare bones as it does have ML audio for some odd reason. No triple beams. Empty slot where the heated/ventilated buttons would normally be. Nuluxe material seats.

Finally, as I suspected, check out the back seats. NO armrest/passthrough and NO cupholders. Did Lexus really have to bundle this feature into the “Premium Package” post face lift? IMO it should be standard on all our cars because of the F badge in the cupholder lid.

Lexus…experience Amazing.

So playing with the online configurator, you can indeed option only the "Premium Audio Package" independently of the "Premium Package." So I guess it is possible to order up a basic RCF with a nice stereo only.
Triple beam headlights have always been a stand-alone individual option.
