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.

The RC350 AWD FSport model is a fun car to drive. We’ve had several Lexus vehicles and dozens of other makes both SUVs and Sedans, but this is one of our great cars to drive. I wanted a fun car to drive in my senior years. I looked at the 2018 Mustang GT 5.0, the 2018 Camero and the 2018 and 2016 Corvette Stingray and decided to buy the 2018 RC 350 Black Edition FSport AW drive. Why did we chose this vehicle? Fit and finish was better than all the other cars I reviewed, the features and the price by comparison. The quality of this Lexus is fantastic like all the previous Lexus vehicles we have owned. In Sport mode it has a very throaty sound and the suspension tightens right up. It corners flat on the corners and pulls away out of the turns. Having raced 1600 cc vehicles with modified engines, I would love to take this Lexus on the track against any of the ones I owned/raced in the past. Want quality and reliability, buy a Lexus. It lacks three features our RX 350 has: HUD, all-around camera viewing for parking (low front end can be damaged when parking without this feature) and side mirrors that collapse when car is locked. Since buying this vehicle I have only had one visit to the dealer and that was for recall for a gas pump recall. Unfortunately when they removed the pump they spilled gas under the rear seat and two months later the smell is still in the car. It sure gives us a headache whenever we are driving for more than twenty minutes. They said the smell would be gone in a day or two. WRONG! It would have been nice if they had cleaned up the mess before giving the car back to us. Other than that I still love the car. UPDATE: I no longer have this vehicle. With age and a bad back it was too hard to get in and out of the vehicle.

Old Lexus for New Lexus

The Lexus RC350 is a fun car for long drives and touring rather than racing. Everything about this car is about lifestyle and opportunity for older clients to really enjoy a Lexus as well as comfort and performance. Since I will not be putting on many miles over the next 3 years of the lease, this car with low miles would be perfect to keep and enjoy for the long haul.

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.

Just know that it’s much better quality than any of the other vehicles I reviewed before buying the RC 350 Black editionSport model with AWD. The fit and finish, the mechanical and the newest features make the Corvette, the Mustang and a few others we looked at were not even close to those of the Lexus. The gas mileage and the giddy-up have satisfied me totally. I only like a quality vehicle and this is just that. This Black Edition is a rare model and I know it will give me everything I ever wanted in a fun car. Looking for quality and perfection look no further. You will love the ride, the power, the interior, the smooth ride and the quality of the build. What this low front end vehicle needs is the surround cameras to prevent front end cowell damage. It also needs the HUD speedometer like our 2020 RX 350. We would also have liked the side view mirrors that close when doors are locked. A horn beep when care is locked is not the answer. We also prefer a beep when you attempt a turn when another vehicle is in your blind spot. NO LONGER HAVE THIS BEAUTY. BACK PROBLEMS SO I HAD TO SELL IT WITH ONLY 6,000 kms ON IT. BROKE MY HEART.
