If this article by Autocar carries any weight then we should be in for a 4 door RC F...or a new IS F... Expect it to share platforms with the RC. Also a maybe could be we'll see convertible version of the RC F...

So it'll be cheaper than the RC F. Is that solely based on it being a 4-door instead of a coupe, or will there be other differences too in design and performance?

This is also what I thought. The IS basically is the 4 door version of the RC. What else is going to be different?

Either way, this still begs the question, "What would a 4-door RC be if there are already a few models that could be seen as that?"

There is already the GS 350 F Sport though. Is that not a performance 4 door coupe?

It's just as much of a performance sedan as the RC 350 F sport is a performance coupe

I'm confused. Though I'm sure that people will buy it. Lexus has less overlap than other brands like BMW. Don't understand their model names and structure.
Are you lost or something? The RC only uses the front clip from the GS, its not based on it. The platform is a hodge podge. Not to mention the segment gap...
No it sounds like they're talking about Gran Coupes ala BMW... IS would still remain IS ...

There is no performance difference between the GS350 and the GS350 Fsport... Same engine and same power output...
It's just like people thinking that the RC350 Fsport is faster or better than the RC350....
