Hello all,
I do not currently or have ever owned a Lexus. I was always interested in sport coupes, which Lexus, up to now, has never created an appealing coupe. That being said, I put down my pre-order deposit on the RC 350 F-Sport back in March (currently #2 on the list). I thought it may be useful to source a broad spectrum of individuals if I were to have questions being that I'm or will be completely new to Lexus.
This car greatly appeals to me, so it seems Lexus was successful in their goal of designing a brand new coupe to attract a new demographic. I currenly drive a 2013 Infiniti G37 coupe and prior to that a G35 coupe. I was almost certian that I would get the next generation Q60 but Infiniti is taking too long to release it and I've grown impatient. Lexus chose the right time and design for its new coupe, at least from my perspective.
The only drawback that I anticipate transitioning from a G37 to an RC 350 is the significant horsepower loss, going from 330 to roughly 300 or "306". Also, the dealership experience seems quite different between the two companies with Infiniti having a modern luxury design and Lexus dealerships having a more "classic" luxury style. At least that's my experience by visiting 2 of the 4 Lexus dealerships in my area.
Anyways, looking forward to my new Lexus. I hope it does not dissapoint...
