Hey everyone, this is my first post here but I am looking at getting an RC 350 FSport here relatively soon, depending on the answer to the question in the title.

I have the opportunity to get a fully loaded 2017 RC 350 FSport right now (which also has the triple LED headlights, which I thought was not allowed in the US, but alas, every single RC they have has them), and they are keeping it in storage for me for a couple days until I make a decision. Or I could place an order for one optioned the same, just the 2018 model instead. My question is this; will there be any interior/exterior changes to this car, mostly changes to the infotainment/navigation screen? I know that the IS's have the larger one, and the dealer is swearing up and down that the 2018 RC will have them also, but I cannot find any info on that or cannot be certain in any way.

What it comes down to is I don't want to get a 2017 with the 2018s so close if they will have the larger screens and a changed interior, but if they don't, I also don't really want to wait either, haha. They are both white with the red interior and have the triple LEDs, so either way I am getting the combo I want, it just comes down to the changes/improvements between the two, if any.

Short answer is yes.
But you should look thru this thread to see all the changes for the 2018 RC.

Oh wow, thanks for the fast reply and I feel dumb that I did not see that. I did not know there was going to be a small power bump either... looks like I am waiting after all!

It's definitely worth the wait. The bigger screen looks amazing in the IS and it's a huge upgrade over the 2015-2017 screen.

Not just the screen, but the updated track-pad is phenomenally better than the current one. I was playing with the 2018 NX yesterday and that track-pad makes a world of difference. Most definitely worth the wait!

I agree that you should wait. I drove a RX350 and was blown away by the size of that screen vs the puny one in my 2015 RC. The other thing which I am not certain of, is if the system will actually work faster than it does. Its not as responsive as other car makes I've used.
