RC-F GT 2019

100kg lighter, +10hp and 4.1 0-62

That's about all I can work out from the video

Oh dear God 😵

Maybe they've added a "launch control"

Easy way to get the 0-60 time down.

@Comedian A 100kg sounds like no seats other than the drivers.....

No spare wheel........ cough cough 🙄

Loss of movey things like rear wings will help. 100kg does seem optimistic though. Maybe less luxury.

@Comedian Id go along with the less luxurious aspect if the package was right, but if it’s the same engine in natural aspirated form is it going to be below 225kgm I be surprised if it was....

After all its a Lexus not an Audi.....

@Comedian I still feel the co2 is a factor for the UK it doesn’t seem to see quite so in Europe, I know the sales there of ‘F’ cars aren’t huge but they are better on the continent.

And all the opposition have much lesser emissions than ours but admittedly no V8 either, be interesting so see the finished item.......

I think it’s great Lexus are going the gt car route with something like the rcf. It could look bloody lovely and has performance and chassi etc to deal with it. You can’t tell anything from spy shots

@Comedian As I understand it the BIF for company car users is a sliding scale for tax reasons the high the co2 the harder the chancellor hits them, there are those who want these type of vehicles for both business and pleasure, though I accept a GT ‘F’ may not be the first choice.

I agree with @Stuno1 the chassis and the power type delivery are there really look forward to the finished article.

If you look really closely I think they may have cleverly hidden a fixed spoiler...... ;)
