Performance doesn't come cheap
If you've got basically a hundred grand burning a hole in your pocket, you, my friend, can have a bright, clear coated carbon fiber limited edition RC F Track Edition. The announcement of the price along with that the car will be coming to dealerships later this year came just last week from Lexus.
There's a bite behind that growl
The Track Edition model is not just a slapped-on title for go-fast posers who simply want to look the part. Lexus really put their minds to it in all the ways they could improve the car. The RC F Track Edition has shaved almost 180 pounds thanks to a carbon fiber diet and now rocks a 0-60 time of 3.96 seconds. For those of you keeping track, that's 0.4 seconds faster than a run of the mill RC F.

Big brawny brakes
The newly upgraded track-honed coupe also received beefier stopping power from carbon-ceramic brake rotors, new noise from a lightweight titanium muffler, and aero in the form of a front splitter and carbon-fiber rear wing. Lexus has proudly developed the Track Edition model with input learned from the IMSA series and the Super GT-spec RC F race cars.

No second helping for this one
The Track Edition gets a boost in weight savings department mostly by a reduction in reducing rotational and unsprung mass. The carbon ceramic rotors alone drop a total of 48.5 pounds compared to the steel stock units. The 19-inch forged BBS wheels that come on the Track Edition saves almost two pounds at each corner and are based on the same ones that were on the RC F GT3 race car.

Nosebleed red interior is always cool
On the interior of the car, you'll get a red-themed design with Alcantara accents. Only two exterior colors will be on tap for the model, which are Ultra White and Matte Nebula Gray.
