Lexus brought a bright orange RC F coupe to SEAM this year customized by Gordon Ting/Beyond Marketing.

This custom RC F has original bodywork, and Sporting Rays Engineering Volk Racing TE-37 wheels in matte blue gunmetal finish. On the mechanical side of things, this RC F received a Takeda Retain intake system, a GReddy Performance supreme dual exhaust, a KW Suspension Varient 3 coilover kit, and Brembo six-piston monoblock calipers. The interior has received Sparco racing seats and a six-point roll cage.

Sounds like fun to me.

Too much fender flare and the spoiler is huge!

 

[Lex Luther]

Spoiler is ridiculous, but I kinda like the body kit. If the car were in white or black, I think it would look pretty sick.

yuck

yuck

What don't you like about it? Is there anything that you do like about it?

 

[Lexinator]

Probably the very prominent fender flares, spoiler or the splitter that requires 2 cables to hold up. Did they do anything to it under the hood?

 

[soarer]

I like the bit of track look it has going on here but if it was up to me more aggressive wheels would be added, aside from that.. i'm liking this.

 

[Lexinator]

Could be the color. That Orange actually looks pretty good but it won't match as well with an standard rc350.

 

[soarer]

That's probably why they only made it available on everyhting but the 350 basemodel. smart move, plus they create some exclusivity by doing that.

How much power did they add with those mods?

How much power did they add with those mods?

All they did when it comes to performance was an intake and exhaust, from those you don't gain much at all, lucky to hit the 30hp increase mark, it's going to be more like 10-15hp.

 

[Lexinator]

Doesn't seem worth it for such little gain.

 

[soarer]

It's not all about power, if power is just what you want, then going for an ECU tune will help in getting more.
