    I don't disagree with any of that, as always it comes down to personal preference. The one main thing that will stop me buying an rcf is the resale of it. I imagine trade it would take a hit and privately it would be tough to sell.

    All the reviews seem positive but I will of course browse forums to get into the finer detail of ownership and driving experience before committing.

    Pictures and reviews seem to favour the quality of materials and finish of the amg model. I guess I'll find out when I take one out. The a45 however seems to get a bit of a hammering for its plastics and cheap materials.

    The 2012-2015 coupe has 450bhp and a map alone takes it to 500hp. See the article below for 60 sprint. http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/2012-mercedes-benz-c63-amg-coupe-page-2 Ordinarily id be all for the Lexus but I think on this case the c63 looks better from an exterior perspective and the reviews of the handling characteristics seem much more positive than the rcf. The coupe also gets a better write up than the c63 saloon as it apparently has better handling due to some suspension tweaks and wider front and rear tyres.

    My isf was the first to have their straight pipe system fitted. Should have asked for it free now seeing how many people have gone with them! I posted on the USA forum and uploaded to YouTube and I still get questions about it. Mine was 850 I believe.

    I am talking about the 2012-2015 range.

    Issue is it is competing with the c63 coupe which does 60 in 3.7 seconds and a map alone can take it to as good as bang on 500hp and its handling dynamics are by all accounts, superb. It will also be easier to sell come time. In 12 months or so this is where I will be spending my hard earned.

    These are only watch list when they bring out the 'f' equvelant for the reasons you state.

    Absolutely and a bloomin bargain but sadly my funds from one car bolster the purchase of the next.

    I did consider it. My concern was depreciation and being able to sell it. Depreciation has transpired to be high so that was correct. I also think come resale the rc-f will be hard to sell. The Lexus performance cars are not well known at all. The isf had good reviews against its peers so was easy to shift. I can see the same being the case for the rcf. Poor press reviews will inevitably lead people to other cars like the M4. Sad but true. Ultimately if you love it then go for it but it would have to be a heart purchase and not a head purchase.

    Sounds lovely chap. Well done 👍

    And 46k for a carbon pack model. That's a heck of a dip from 72k ish new??? Amazing value at current prices. I wonder how much the cars will come down year on year.

    Sadly this will probably now die! While this forum is great very few are willing to step forward and organise meets, events etc. I experienced this while organising number of blue water meets. I would have have taken this on if I was not already organising other drives and meets for other forums/groups. I hope someone does come forward as it looks to be a good crack.

    I'll just be trolling you all weekend with my Evora 😂

    Would be ok to invite my brother in hopefully an r32 and a mate in a 911? Both will be date dependent.
  16. Stuno1
    What's the format of the trip and duration? I need to start softening up the good lady.
  17. Stuno1
    Can the isf put that power to the road? It's all well and good having massive figures but if in second or third out of a corner on a B road the car can't lay the power down it's wasted money.

    Looks like a great time lads. If another takes place and i an free I'd be game. Off to wales later this year 😃
  19. Stuno1
    Lol you will need it. They seem to go wrong a lot!
  20. Stuno1
    Whatever you want!

    The folk on this form think outside the box so figured it would be interesting to see what people come up with. budget of 50k, can be as old as you like, can be any vehicle you like, can only be one vehicle. Go...
  22. Stuno1
    Oh dear god!
  23. Stuno1
    Agreed. Can't seeing 15k pulling in anything with fewer miles than 100k. Best of luck though.

    Doesn't float my boat personally. I liked getting rid of the fake tip and improving gas flow with a proper system. If sound is all you want this looks a good cost effective solution.

    Do like the NX. Do want a Lexus as a second car for : - reliability - comfort -kit it comes with - warranty available for 10 years - styling basically the whole package Lexus offer.
