Fun and flashy

Bought my used RC 300 luxury edition from a local BMW dealership. It has far surpassed any expectation I had prior to driving a car. The fuel economy the worst aspect of the car, but the performance and fun aspect far outweigh the greedy gas pump. The caviar paint, chrome accents, and camel interior make me feel like I'm driving an exotic car. I live in an area we're back roads are plentiful with winding turns and ample straightaways to see what she can do and handle. Even with the air conditioner on full blast, and in eco mode, there is plenty of pep and vigor she puts out. I have yet to test her timing on performance, but from watching videos, I believe she will exceed all of those. She is not sluggish at all and hits nearly 60 miles an hour topping out 2nd gear. Almost too much fun to drive oh, almost.

2019 RC300 AWD may lack in the HP/Top Speed department but in my experience it gets going, and fast to hit 80-100 without any difficulty. Of course, we highway traffic nowadays, speed checks and radar, does anyone need a car that goes 200? I think not. The Lexus construction, inside and out, in my opinion is a 10, and I’ve owned Maserati, Mercedes, Alfa Romeo, Acura and more. If you wish to a high quality coupe, that is bulletproof, then this a GREAT CAR!

New owner of a 2016 Rc300 AWD F series. Went from a 2008 Audi TT and find it just as enjoyable. Smooth ride, great performance and gives me what I need for my life. Love it.

Catch a Lexus 300 RC F-Sport

I'm happier with the car than I even thought I would be. Only negatives are storage space and less zip off the line than the 350. Still, it's a great ride.
