RC F: Can we talk about dependability & maintenance?
I'm considering buying a cpo RC F, ~30k mileage single owner good maintenance record. I love this car
I've searched far and wide, but can't figure out what this car is like as a long-term daily driver from a maintenance perspective.
Can I expect the same reasonable prices and dependability I would find with other, maybe less expensive Lexus vehicles that have been maintained, or am I getting myself up for costly repairs since this is a 4 year old performance vehicle?

Have a '15 RC 350 F Sport. Solid like a rock. Not sure what you mean by "reasonable prices" but it has been, at least for me, very dependable.

How much do you think you spend per year on maintenance & repairs?
What would you say your biggest costs have been?
Do you think this car will last you ten years if you really baby it?
Have you driven lower end Lexus - if so, do you think the RC F is quite a bit more to maintain?

Other than routine maintenance such as oil changes, tires and brakes etc. ZERO!
I have an NX and a RC and in the past ES's. None have ever given me any problems but I'm sure there are a few people on the forum that will tell you about nightmares but in my opinion they are the exception not the rule. I've never held a car for 10 years but can't imagine that a RC would not last that long. Driving habits are the biggest factor in how much you spend for maintenance.

Yeah, you should post it (or a moderator moves it) in the RCF forums. As far mine is concern, absolutely stunning quality and zero issues.
