Magnificent video as usual. On another note that I find in a bunch of videos and forums. It's kind of amazing how many people whine about 'fake engine sounds', yet want a car that's quiet to daily, yet want a car that's loud when they wanna have a go. I person think that the amplified engine sound thing is a good thing, but I think it should have a dial/menu like the Lexus does here. That's a very nice touch. A very good compromise by the manufacturers.

Man, I'm so glad you mentioned the digital engine noise. In the first half of the video I thought the engine sounded terrible, super annoying! I've never heard digital sound that bad. There is no way I wound keep that on, in fact I would rip out or super glue the knob just in case I accidentally turned it on. Great view once again.

Glad to have finally watched this video. I think with the turbocharged 4 this car is more of a very stylish and sporty commuter, while the V6 is more mainstream luxury and the V8 a luxury GT coupe. If it was my only "fun" car I would get at least the V6, but this turbo 4 makes my list of sporty dailies to consider.

.... without realising that some peoples will probably like the RC whatever tons he will weight... Let's be honest. The 200lbs more, are nothing if compared with the Bentley's, Porsches, Mercedes and other Range Rover. In short, all those sport SUV Panzers out there. And the air resistance is pretty low on this car. Probably nullifying the differences with the IS at high speed. Just my 2 cents.

I'm conflicted if I were to buy one of the Lexus lineup sporty cars. It seems like the RC is more fun to drive than the IS, but the IS looks better to me. But I'd rather have the coupe. But the IS looks smaller and tighter. The 200T models seem lighter and more tossable, but I'd rather have the NA motor with more power. And no manual to speak of :'( With a manual transmission these cars be so much more attractive

Lol, I think I was the person (or one of the people) who suggested you brake torque the car on your previous video. Now obviously you're right that no one does that in real life. I simply suggested it since it would narrow down whether the torque converter or engine software was causing the sluggish off the line acceleration. Judging by the fact that brake torquing seems to work, it appears that the torque converter is the culprit.
@savagegeese
@savagegeese 8 жыл бұрын
Thanks and thats why I did it in video this time. Its mostly tq converter but there is software at play too. If you stab the throttle its like a bluetooth connection to throttle body always a half second delay.

I love this car. Looks stunning "before u go off half cocked calling me a Lexus fanboy" You were complementing the car and had to say your no lexus fanboy? You have to be a fan boy to like Lexus? I dont get it when people praise Audi BMW and Benz no one has to say that they arent a fan boy.. but when someone like Lexus you have to state your not a fanboy ? Double standard. Lexus is just as good and better in some areas then the Germans. You shouldn't have to justify anything. I have seen this car in person and let me tell you its stunning. Stand out. I love the rear end and side profile. Its look better in person then pics and videos. The interior is gorgeous and that red paint is really nice. Lexus factory paints are one of the best factory paint jobs. They get the deep, gloss and shine just right, Its a new model and it already has a high performance F model, a turbo model and a V6 model. Lexus is on full steam with production of their cars model range things like this usually take years to happen. That delay in acceleration needs to get sorted out it can def be faster with more punch off the line.

I blame this video for me getting into RC200t... :D Obviously, it is not a fault of the video, but this one was last nudge for me to get it - sort of "it is not as bad" and perhaps it is going to be "ok" or "good enough". I watched it when it was first uploaded, then before buying the car and now few month after getting it. Just for some background - the problem is that in UK we do not get RC350 - it is not for sale and that makes no sense whatsoever. The choice on release in UK used to be RC200t/300h at the same price point or RC-F at double the price and nothing in between, since they have dropped 200t and now it is literally either RC300h or RC-F - this is stupid beyond imagination... RC300h is tragic car.. had test driven it several times and that hybrid powertrain just sucks and it is just so slow (9.2s to 60!) - complete incomprehensible compared to how the car looks. If we would have RC350, obviously I would have got it back in 2017 when I was looking to upgrade my IS250, but we don't and I don't exactly want to own RC-F, because it is too much for my daily commute and too expensive to own maintain and insure (no joke my insurance quote for it was £3500). So I really struggled with decision regarding upgrade... I had 2.0t cars in the past and I hated them, because they just rough and that is probably ok in tuner like golf GTI or Mitsubishi Evo... but in GT car like RC it just sucks. 300h - tried it and it sucked, RC-F was just out of question. Finally, my IS got written off due to minor scratch on the roundabout and I had to upgrade... RC200t in right colour and spec showed-up.. I watched this video and bought it next day.... and I fucking hate it! The car is lovely, but the engine is piece of trash - it lags, it hunts for gears constantly, the fuel efficiency is worse than RC-F! it is harsh above ~3500-4000RPM (maybe it is smoothest 4 cylinder, but it is still shit compared to literally anything else which is not 4 pot). Coming from 4GR-FSE in IS250 I just can't believe Lexus spent 10 years and made engine so bad in comparison to the old one. On paper it looks marginal improvement, but in reality is worse in any possible way. Now after owning the car and watching the video again I can say it touches all aspects of the car - sadly for me the day before the purchase I was looking for justification to own it and I missed the mild warnings. My conclusion - 200t is the worst engine in Lexus history only second to 220d, it has no place in RC or any Lexus car for that matter and whatever you do don't buy it... especially if you have option to get RC350.

Hey Savage, I'm really torn between IS and RC 200t (both fsport). What's your opinion after reviewing both of these cars. IS seems more practical and is also slightly cheaper, while RC looks so much better. What about the driving experience ? I had short test drives, unfortunately that's not enough to tell the difference for me. Thanks for your input.

From the very first hard launch I noticed how strangely artificial it sounded near the redline and was trying to sort out what was going on. I completely forgot about systems like ASC, so the moment you mentioned it my reaction was, "OHHH! Haha, duh...gross..." I'm sure it doesn't sound as annoying sitting in the car, but through the video the experience is very Gran Turismo 2-ish.

***** The worst ones are systems designed to alter the sound of the engine entirely. Biggest offender in the States is Ford with the EcoBoost Mustang. They play specific frequencies to mask the sound of the four cylinder, which is ridiculous. Granted, with the fuse removed for the system (can't disable it), it sounds like a Focus. But people are well aware of the power plant in the vehicle to begin with and shouldn't mind hearing the true sound. Not to mention that all of the audio-doctoring on the inside doesn't change what's under the hood, and it's just lying to the owner of the car while the rest of the world on the outside hears a four banger, haha. I love the idea of the EcoBoost Mustang, but the sound doctoring is crap.
@illitero
@illitero 8 жыл бұрын
***** I could be misremembering what I read as far as their specific technique used, I'll have to look it up. But that's precisely why Ford is masking the four cylinder: people think v8 when they think Mustang, so Ford was afraid some beef eating shit kicker would buy one and bitch about the sound. There are swaths of people that think the EcoBoost Mustang is sacrilege, but they're obviously ignorant on the vehicle's lineage because the Mustang was never made with v8 exclusivity; it was a car designed solely for the appeal of giving options. Not to mention the existence of one of the most coveted Mustang trims ever: the SVO.

+Scott P Precisely! And there's only a difference of $2,800 in price, and 4 mpg combined, between the 200turd and the 6 cylinder version. At the $40,000 price range, who is motivated to buy a 4 cylinder version? Moreover, who would put a 4 cylinder engine in a car that looks like that? The Lexus product manager that green-lit this decision is going to get demoted, for sure.

+John sierra Dude, it's 4 mpg. I'm just quoting actual EPA information cited by Lexus in their own product guide, which you can find here: pressroom.lexus.com/releases/2016+lexus+rc+product+specs.htm Your own personal experience is meaningless - - you could have a downhill drive both to and from work, for all we know.

+John sierra Your immaturity is exceeded only by your ignorance. Rejoin us when you know the difference between anecdotal experience and objective information. So, 4 mpg difference it is; don't take it personally. My point stands: I wonder why a typical buyer at this price point would settle for the 4 cylinder? Someone of the environmentalist faith, is the best rationale I can come up with.

Depending on how you take care of it, could do more than 200k miles, but in addition to the regular Lexus components, you will have to replace the turbo as well. I personally prefer naturally aspirated engines.

A 4 cylinder luxury sporty car? Isn't that akin to something like a $60,000 Civic Si? I can see the point to buying it if you live in a city with a 20 mph speed limit, police with radar at every corner, and women who only want to know men who have luxury and status. Oh wait, that describes most of America these days. Yeah, that car's just right for the 'slow' lane, to avoid speeding traffic tickets.
