The GPS is garbage; however, the car alone is great. Love driving it.

Great mix of sportiness, comfort, tech and MPG.

It is by far the best looking coupe on the road for the money, can't think of one that is even remotely close to it. The looks and color (atomic silver) have been complimented many times in the 30 days that I have owned mine. The ride quality is what you expect out of a Lexus and the gas mileage is on par with the weight and size of the engine. The note of the engine/exhaust is fun when you put your foot in it. Many people have commented that they want more power, it would be nice, but then they would definitely cry about the fuel economy. If you want more power, spend another $20k and get the RCF. As you would expect in a couple, the size is small and the windows are narrow, but with the blind spot, cross traffic and rearview cameras it is fine. I am 6'6" and have about 1-2" of head room left.

Great Coupe

This is my 5th Lexus. All have been exceptional, but this coupe is a blast to drive. Test drove 435,A5 and C300, all were very fine cars. But to me the Lexus once again was the total package. Not quite as fast as the BMW or the Audi but fast enough for most people and the ride and handling are superb, and the looks from people stopping in their tracks to stare, mine is in Infared and Playa.

The 2015 Lexus RC350 is a beautiful sports coupe that is reliable and very quick. The only negative comment that I have is the difficult entry access to anyone that is 5'-10" and taller.

Love Love Love my RC 350 F Sport

I spent months reading reviews, watching video road tests, and test driving myself, but 2 weeks ago I finally purchased a RC 350 F Sport. The car is the ultimate mix of luxury and sport. The ability to change the driving dynamics from Eco, Normal, Sport to Sport+ make it feel like you own two cars at once. If cruising in quite and luxury is your thing Eco or Normal and if you want aggressive shift points and tighter suspension then Sport+ makes the car rock! The interior is such a contemporary mix of materials and touches that it's a treat every time I get into the car. The Lexus Touchpad interface for Navigation system does take some getting used to. It's jumpy at first, but after a few days you will have it mastered. Steering wheel and dash controls make most systems in the car redundant so there are many ways to do things. 1yr later-Still enjoying driving the RC each and everyday. Had a few unexpected squeaks/rattles that needed to be addressed with the dealer. All were fixed but a. It disappointed they happened at all coming from Lexus. Also a bit disappointed in the quality of the paint on the hood. I drive less then 1,000 per month, yet have more hood paint sings then you would expect. Still the sporty and luxury coup I expected. The only thing I don't love is that when you enter and exit the car you have to climb in and climb out. I had a mustang prior and it was easier to enter/exit then the Lexus. It might just sit lower to the ground and take some getting used to.
