Lexus RC350 F Sport continues to be Outstanding
This is a smooth running comfortable car with lots of power. The paddle shifters give you an extra "kick-down" gear when you want to zip around someone or merge onto the freeway. It has plenty of power for street driving, but it’s so quick you have to watch out because you can be over 90 mph before you realize it. I acquired the car new in 2016. Almost three years later it has proven to be the most reliable brand I’ve ever purchased. The only times I’ve had it to the shop is for routine maintenance This is my fourth Lexus since 1998 and none can be be beat for reliability. The RC-350 continues to be outstanding value. I would buy it again.

Good looks, high quality interior, poor driving.
Overall its a fantastic sporty looking daily coupe. If you are looking for a car to impress people who don't know much about cars, while also not having to adhere to expensive maintenance schedules but at the cost of a boring car... DING DING DING this one is for you. The interior is immaculate, I loved mine, and the styling is great. The odometer is beautifully orchestrated showing all the info you would like (like tire psi, what song is playing, fuel economy, etc.). HOWEVER, this car gets 3 cars from a driving enthusiasts perspective... it would be a 5 star car from a normal owners perspective. Why? It drives like a boat. It is essentially a pretentious looking v6 camry but slower and less efficient on every capacity. The sound system (ML) is phenomenal and you'll need it as the engine notes from this thing are nonexistent. Performance: 2/5 Looks: 4/5 Fuel economy: 3/5 Interior: 4.5/5 (if it had android auto/apple car play it would be 5/5) I put heavy emphasis on the performance rating (2/5) as this was very much a very boring car to drive once you know how german performance cars play.

My RC 350 is still going strong after 6 years
Still a very enjoyable car. I had the entertainment system go out which cost $2500, which was a bummer. Otherwise all is good.

Easily turned into a road warrior
I love the sophistication of the standard RC350 F-Sport but it lacked performance to match it's looks. No one wants their 60k sport coupe to get blown away by a souped up Golf R-type great car that it is, so I turned to the aftermarket and with a growing owner base performance options are out there now and for less than 3 grand I have an RC350 F-Sport faster than its big brother the RF-f. It's still quite and smooth riding when I want it be but a real beast when I let it loose. I love driving this car just for the sake of driving it...even more than my classic 911. Strong recommendation

Almost there!
Overall this car does inherit Lexus comfort and reliability. Smooth ride and stunning exterior. Inside is a bit tight as expected in a sport car frame, but very quiet and ride is relatively smooth. Acceleration is not one of the strongest feature of this car and in Sport mode there is a bit of hesitation at the start from a complete stop. I have the Luxury package on this car and for most part it is loaded with features, but some important features are lacking compared to my older Lexus that had only the Premium package (See suggested improvements).
