Cons

Pros

  Everything about it is great !

Cons

  Tire pressure monitor light is continuously on even when tires properly inflated.

Pros

• Reliability

  Nothing breaks on this car. Just drive it forever….

• Power

  It’s heavy but it’s got power. Your Mustangs and Scat Packs will learn this …

• Seat Comfort

  I could drive this car across county and never feel like I need to pull over and stretch…

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  The nav and screen are a bit dated. For around $800 you can upgrade all of this to something out of this world aftermarket wise, so not really a big deal.

Pros

• Power

  472 HP stock with modifications up to 530 HP

• Ride and Handling

  Ride is stiff, but handling is awesome. I drive on smooth roads so stiffness not much issue as I have the earlier non adaptive variable suspension version.

• Styling

  Turns heads everywhere

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  Technology is a bit outdated, but not an issue

• Weather Versatility

  Only can drive it in the summer, but I guess a small price to pay for all of that fun

• Fuel Economy

  It is a high-revving V8. What do you expect?

Pros

• Styling

• Ride and Handling

• Power

Cons

• Cabin Noise

• Interior Space

• Visibility

Pros

• Power

  Why not like it?

• Technology and Entertainment

  Lexus Enform is pretty nice. So is the audio system.

• Dashboard

  I've never seen a layout like this, and I love it.

Cons

• Cabin Noise

  It's a little noisy if that bothers you. I usually have music up pretty loud though and I can't hear it.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

• Reliability

• Styling

Cons

• Dashboard

  Could have included a more technological look but not bad and very user friendly

Pros

• Power

  NA V8 engine with 467hp. Nothing more to say!

• Value

  On the used market, these are reasonably priced and should hold their value well due to Lexus/Toyota's legendary reliability, plus the naturally aspirated V8 engine will soon be a thing of the past.

• Reliability

  As a Lexus/Toyota product with the long-running 2UR-GSE engine under the hood, the RC F should be able to run for years and years with just basic maintenance.

Cons

• Seat Comfort

  The seats in the RC F are predictability aggressive and grippy, although they are not the worst on road trips. I'm 6'2" however, and cannot lower the seat enough to avoid having my head hit the roof periodically. This has caused some discomfort.

• Fuel Economy

  Most people won't be buying the RC F for its fuel economy (or lack thereof). It's a bit thirsty around town or if/when you step on the Go pedal. It does deliver reasonable gas mileage when cruising on the highway. I averaged about 25mpg on an 800 mile round trip.

• Interior Space

  Although technically a 2+2, this is really a 2 seat coupe, as the front seats are perpetually planted directly against the rear seats, rendering them unusable. The center console is relatively shallow and the door pockets are average at best. Rear trunk space is pretty decent though for a coupe. It can easily fit two suitcases for even a longer trip, or two sets of golf clubs with ease.
