Why This Car Is One Of My All-Time Favorites // 2020 Lexus RC-F

[@pwally2714]

Blue F badge, blue painted engine, blue stitching. Blue has been the theme of the Fs since the 2008 ISF that debuted with a blue exterior and blue F badge.

Great review, Sarah. That Lexus is simply an amazing car. The build quality is by far superior to BMW. The engine sounds great and you're right; it needs an exhaust system to liven it up a bit. Keep up the great work.

"If you screw up it will let you know. However if you drive it well it will reward you" ......TRUE!

[@archimedes298]

Excellent review. I have owned a lot of cars over the years and my 2015 Lexus RCF is one I can see keeping forever, unless I buy a newer RCF. It really is one of the finest road cars ever built.

[@dylan4972]

Doesn't have to be the fastest on the road in a straight line to be amazing I think we get hung up on numbers but sometimes actually often it's the driving experience and feel that makes a great car.

[@troytruong8246]

They are just stupid. They like to throw drag and track numbers around. Most if them think they are professional car racers. They fail to realize the practicality, usability, and driving experience of the car!! Best daily sports car. M2, M3, M4 are good too.

[@markstevenfall]

I sold my M4 and bought an RC-F in Azure blue with black and white interior. You are not wrong - this was the first Lexus I owned that had soul and emotion. Have to say, my GS-F was even better... Great video Sarah -I especially love the science bits! 😊👍🙏

[@macmusikpro]

I own a 2019 10th anniv limited ed GSF with matt paint finish, and i am thinking of trading it to LC500..... ANy thoughts? I love my GSF but LC500 is sick , i find GSF is better in the corners when i drove it on a track. any comments and advice will be appreciated specially from GSF owners

[@jan3019]

and it's Japanese :)

[@NewShockerGuy]

So between the RSF and GSF? Which would you actually prefer? I am building a RCF and it's at around 80-90k... and for that price I could get the GSF as well.. I've ALWAYS loved the GSF but we already have several 4 door vehicles so it would be redundant with just my wife and I (no kids).

[@catjesus4319]

@@macmusikpro I just went from a GS-F to an LC vert. GS-F is more hard core and i miss that sometimes, but the LC is all around better. I get comments from people everywhere i go.

[@davidwade7681]

But the new rearend doesnt look aggressive looks weird old one looks better but new headlights look better

[@WestDesertRat]

How can you not love Sarah and her channel, seriously.

[@eightguitars]

Considering this is priced right around the same as the new C8, and it being a lot more available, it feels like this might be a good alternative. Plus, that exteriour color is to die for.

[@SarahnTuned]

I think it would hold its value better.

[@eightguitars]

@@SarahnTuned The Lexus or the C8? Would be interesting, in a couple of years, to see which has a higher cost of ownership.

The blue stitching is done to go with the F colors that’s why the intake plenum is also blue

Hi Sarah! Of all the “Abandoned warehouse Sarah’s” I know, you’re definitely my favorite! 👍🏻

[@cargueone1971]

For the same price, you can get a year old LC500 with 5k miles. The LC is a much more special car, a will be a collectible before the RCF.

[@benoitbricet8885]

I remember when the Toyota Supra mkiv was a heavy car with over inflated price tag and nobody would ever like that. For my part, I believe that the Lexus rcf will be a liked car and an interesting reminder of a past, where 5L V8 where still street legal.

[@DrWonderEyes]

Entertaining in a weird way. I like her. I will subscribe. Lol

[@Sameera1978]

Love the RC line from Lexus. It is more a GT car than a real sports car, but that is great for comfort and livability. I went from a faster car to the RC just because the driving experience was so much nicer, and it isn't really much slower for anything you can do safely on public roads.

My love for this car knows no bounds. I really think this car is so much better than others on the market, I would even say it's better than the current Nissan Skyline which hurts to say. The transmission, interior, exterior, engine, just all makes sense in this car. There's a reason why this car kicks ass on the track, it's a serious car, no bullshit.

[@fusioneer84]

The stitching is blue and white because those are the colors of the "F" logo.

[@dinonly01]

U love the car so do I...we are same😍

[@stnkpalm]

I love the RC-F too. I like that's it's old school V8 muscle with an upscale package. If you get it in Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 then the blue stitching will match the exterior. I don't know if the Orange-Red calipers will look as good with the Blue paint though.

[@Imleocalm]

[@rangelr6160]

As a lexus mechanic seeing these things in and out of the dealer i work at these cars from 2015 and up the have a laughable resale value 😂, there incredibly hard to work on with the exception of simple things like an oil change or battery, but goddamn these things are very fun to drive, and especially given the incredible face lift on the new models they look stunning, my only complaint is that they're under powered, especially the track edition 2020, You quite literally have more brakes than power which is hilarious, but the carbon trim is so dope 🤩

Hi Sarah, can you review a 911?

[@SarahnTuned]

I'm not important enough to get those kind of cars.

[@bosgaurus1]

Rightly, or wrongly, I was told, when I started selling Lexus cars, that Insurance companies in Japan always charged very high premiums on sports cars. One of the definers of a sports car for them was the lack of a back seat. In order to increase sales in this segment, Japanese automakers have been putting in those grocery bag and purse shelves in coupes and calling them back seats for many many decades now.

I love this car was eyeing to pick one up with this redesign, but just can't justify the price for its performance/heavy weight. With the new Supra being less expensive, easily tuned, and better performance/weight, it's a no brainer.

the lc500 is pn its own league

[@carboydorifutoparty3976]

GTR if u want a fast and fun car(fastest out of the 3)the LC is just heavier and just as much as the GTR but a daily car(if it's not used)and the RCF is basically a daily.

[@RFXLR]

I have a 2010 Lexus IS220d The only comparable part is the tractioncontrol. Because my Lexus will also allow wheelspin even when the traction and stability control is on. The exeption is that the stability control steps in if the rear lets go. However in icy or slippery conditions it will act faster.
