Raiti! Love the channel man. First off, I just want to suggest.. this car is NOT meant to compete with the M4, how ever consumers and review sites often compare them. After owning the First Gen (2015) RC-F for 2 years, I have to say, it is MUCH more comfortable than the M4. It is NOT as fast and DOES NOT have aftermarket capabilities as the BMW. (RR-Racing fan boys, please stay out of this) It is plenty enough of power, I've ran a bunch of Coyote 5.0's, 392 Scat Packs, Camaro SS's and have beaten many (pre 10 speed auto models). If you're ever in Houston, TX give me a DM, take my full bolt on F out for a spin (its 10x better than stock). Like someone said below, M4= Lease/Rent RC-F= Buy preowned (huge discount, you can find one for 38-45,000 with ~30K miles or less) Shameless Instagram Plug: @ Htizzys_RCF

This is a good car but i think it still a little bit slower than expected, even slower than the supra.

There are videos on it. From a dead stop, the launching is the issue on the RCF. RCF really shines from a rolling start. From a 50 mph roll in 2nd gear, the RCF beats the Supra because it has a faster 0-150 mph time. I can show you video of a stock RCF beating a stock Supra from a roll. Also, remember Supra only has 2 seats and has almost no usable space while the RCF has a usable trunk and back seats where you can put kids.

Obviously 472hp is alot of power but with this car it seems rather slow, for comparison the c8 corvette has similar engine naturaly aspirated V8 with 490hp but because of its lightweight and launch control it can do 0-60 in just 3 second flat and 1/4 mile in less than 12 second, that is fast.

Needs a better exhaust system. Sounds weak :(

[@davey6024]

You wouldn't say that after daily driving it to work for a year.

[@asdf51501]

Some of the Houston area car meet videos have these in them with exhausts. It's kind of weird because you don't expect a Lexus to sound like a Mopar.

LOVE the Old School Hip Hop reference!!!!! You reference Run-DMC a lot!!!! 😂😂

[@petergazarek4238]

LEXUS it´s TOP 👌🏻👍🏻😍

[@RaitisRides]

I am so glad that you like this one Peter!

[@chunpoon4264]

How is the handling? I'm looking into test driving one this weekend. Does it have a sporty feel or is very light and doesn't give much feedback? I've heard mixed reviews

[@RaitisRides]

It feels really good

[@chunpoon4264]

@@RaitisRides Is it more on the loose side or stiff side?

[@ALT3REDB3AST]

Damn. That price.😞

[@RaitisRides]

I feel your pain.

I'm 36 years old. Never had an info screen ever. 95 Z28 94 Trans Am 91 Miata 99 Miata 06 Cayman S Lexus LS400 03 S2000 May actually get one with a screen now in the F. Is ther a way to keep the screen off?

[@Sarcastic_Asmodeus]

Am I the only one that really doesn't like the new headlights? They look like they're one of those cheap aftermarket ones.

[@RaitisRides]

I can understand where you are coming from.

[@MoNeenja]

I actually like the new ones, I wasn't a big fan of the separated lights

[@Sarcastic_Asmodeus]

@@MoNeenja, I thought they looked unique. These one's remind me of the aftermarket ones you find on Ebay.

[@davidwade7681]

@@Sarcastic_Asmodeus lol ya the old ones look more aggressive but the new ones are nice

[@dankmemer2774]

Just when I thought it couldn’t get better, lexus drops the track edition decked out in carbon. Still enjoy that video you did btw.

[@mr.hand-holder1163]

You sure are consistent whenever you’re always talking about Twinkies and I love the Camaro SS and The Mustang gt except challenger my least favorite car

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks Brian for letting me share it all with you!

[@zaina1570]

Hey Joe great video. Does this feel faster or did Lexus LC500 felt faster?

[@deundreward7057]

Definitely, better than BMW M4.

[@lakerfan1855]

Definitely not. Performance-wise the M4 crushes this car.

[@darksideemt]

My good friend has a 15 Blue one with the carbon roof and spoiler with a race exhaust. It sounds great and he has loved the car since he got it. He lives near Road Atlanta and Lexus has him bring it to events there to show. For me and the price I think I would choose something different but its a good looking car.

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks for sharing that great input Travis. I would love to see your friend's car.

[@XBLHAX]

This car was thrown away for a reason....$74k maybe what $80k new for a 2011 interior in a 2020....no thanks.

[@beachbreh]

facts

[@mrjjthor]

Exactly. I took a look at the RCF and the car felt outdated and the transmission shift felt clunky under sport plus mode. After a test drive I did not want one. Toyota is giving up on their in house performance cars.

[@weirdshibainu]

Toyota is the laziest car company going. One day they're going to regret it.

[@davidwade7681]

Not worth 80k but the interior is nice except for the center console just add carbon fiber bits an ur good

[@stevetruong3190]

thats why used ones are going in the 40s my friend!!!!

[@lewisharris6180]

They need to put the 10 speed in this car. It handles better than the LC so it should have the better trans too.

[@RaitisRides]

That is a very good point!

[@Topofthelinetommy]

Its a Mustang GT engine.

[@RaitisRides]

I know right! Just more reliable.

[@davidwade7681]

Better then the mustang ...facts

[@jimmypena2442]

Sounds better in my opinion, it just lacks torque in comparison.

[@Topofthelinetommy]

I'm debating trading my 2019 GT convertible for an RC F. I also have a Quadrifoglio that is going away. No way would I buy a BMW M.

[@davidwade7681]

@@Topofthelinetommy yes do it

[@bobby9882]

GREAT review Joe!!! If you HAD to choose would you take the RC F or M4??
