And to continue showing how a BMW fan turned into a Toyota fan:




This engine is rumoured to make 300 PS and 400 Nm. Next engine will be the 3.0l V6 and then the 4.0l V8. Lexus "LS-F" already makes 650 PS out of its 5.0l V8.
Somehow though the 4 series lights looks more modern. But I mean that's the only gripe I have with the RC.

DAMN, Lexus has really stepped it up! I thought that they weren't taking the engine game seriously when they came out with that weak 350 engine in the IS I already like the IS though. Lexus has also become a value offering. It's so hard not to consider them now..

I am not sure about faster the F-type R, the Jar is definitely be 4s 0-60 and if I am dropping 100k on a sports coupe I want a car that is bonkers that engages emotionally, not much thought will be given about practicality or reliability. If it isn't dump it in 2 years.

And if you re-read my post it's against the marketing company not the car itself. The commercial is trite and unimaginative. I am not going to be moved by animations

The RC in my eyes is soooo much better looking than the IS. The IS has grown on me, but their design language looks much better on the coupe. that thing is down right sexy.
