This car is amazing! Sure, it’s not the most powerful in it’s class but it has much more power than you need on the roads in the country taking the speed limits into consideration. The car is insanely comfortable and looks very classy and sporty in my opinion and is beautifully crafted. The infotainment screen could be larger, but I believe they took care of that in the 2018 model. The handling on it is amazing, you get good control of the car even at high speeds. The grip of the steering wheel feels great and the seats are sporty and comfortable at the same time. The gauge cluster is heavenly too! (On the Fsport model only). Not to mention all the options and safety features that are available on the car. I don’t mean to put anybody down with this but comparing it to it’s main competitor the Infinity Q60 (in my opinion) I would take the RC any day! The Q60 is cheaply built compared to the RC. Just look at the blind spot monitors that come with the Q60! They look like cheap aftermarket products! And they are located at the cars pillars not in the mirrors! But again, that’s just my opinion. I would definitely recommend the Lexus RC 350 (Fsport if possible) to anybody in the market for a car in it’s class. At the end of the day, it’s a Lexus. Which means that it adds great reliability to sport and comfort! It’s the perfect package!

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.

I recently traded my Porsche 911 Carrera 2013 for a 2019 RC F Sport 350. This car is more of a boulevard cruiser in luxury than an actual “sports” car, and I love it. The Porsche I owned for 6 years and quality was second to none, it was very fast but very expensive to keep. My 10,000 mile service was due and quote was north of $1,850.00 insane. Since I also own an 2016 Avalon thought I would like a “Toyota “ type sports car and yes it more than suits my needs. Build quality of Lexus IS excellent and I believe it will keep putting a smile on my face as I keep putting on miles. SOLD VEHICLE FOR TESLA MODEL 3 IN JULY 2020 now sold Tesla for Lexus LS 500

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.

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.

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.

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

We were trying to find the RC in white w/red interior and not much luck. Then happened upon the RC350 SPORT BLACK EDITION ‼️Long story short this car has to be seen to fully appreciate what Lexus did with this car. WHAT A MACHINE

In August of 2019 I bought the Lexus RC 350 F Sport with atomic silver And red leather interior. From the moment I sat in the car I knew it was for me. I test drove 31 cars over the summer of 2019. I test drove the second place Infiniti Q60, 3rd Place Mercedes C-Class Coupe, 4th Place BMW 3-Series and 4-series, and then the Audi A4 Coupe. What blows me away is that overall design of this car... the exterior, the interior, and the stereo system is the best I've ever heard in my entire life. I've heard nothing but great compliments on this, and it actually was compared to a Ferrari Roma. Anything less than five stars would be a lie.

I am so happy with this car. Going from a 2016 Ford Taurus to this... I was a little apprehensive because my Taurus was a limited and meant to be comfortable and so going to a little 2 door coupe made me nervous on comfort. Though I hate to admit it, I not getting any younger so comfort is important to me. I was more than surprised when I test drove this. Hands down 100% more comfortable than my other car. I should have known since it is a Lexus. But again being a sporty little two door I did not expect the smooth, quiet ride that it actually is. It’s like riding in a Cadillac dare I say! I love all of the options, and how the controls are all conveniently within my reach. Yes, the back seat is pretty useless, but I have no kids to chauffeur around anymore so I have no need. Don’t remember the last time I used the giant back seat in the Taurus. I will say there were things I didn’t take into account, like the fact that it takes only premium gas, and the tires are different sizes so you can’t rotate them and therefore must replace them sooner than you would on any other vehicle. However, I love the car so much that I want it anyway. These are just a few things you should take into consideration if you are thinking about buying one. I fell in love though and I’m keeping it!

We are in So. Fl. but flew to NC to drive the car back. Johnson Lexus was the dealer that had the color combo and trim level. The dealers in So. Fl were also horrible to deal with. Devon and Brett bent over backwards to treat us right. We love the car and there aren't that many on the road.

The 2021 Lexus RC 350 AWD F-sport in InfraRed is one of my dream cars, but what a disappointment. I tried getting a 2020 model in late 2020 but the car were either sold or had dealer demo/executive miles on them, so ordered a new one. For 2021 the RC 350 AWD had an increase in the MPG rating, this rating is mainly from transmission tuning. The 6 speed transmission now tries to shift into the highest gear possible and really bogs the car down, this happens in all the drive modes as well. Some other issues are a very bad fitted driver's sun visor, the sun visor sags down when its not latched and the latch was broke on delivery. The interior has a very strong coolant smell, I thought this was just burn-off but a few times in the winter i had to driver with the windows down to vent out the smell. Even parked not running the interior has a strong coolant smell. And finally the Electric park brake has failed to release about a dozen times now, this was a change for 2021 going from the manual parking brake to the electric one. So far no fix for the parking brake and the coolant smell. Compared to my 2019 IS350 the 2021 RC350 is just disappointing.

This car is definitely not family-friendly. However, if you’re a bachelor or bachelorette, this car is amazing from top to bottom. I don’t have one anymore because I was hit and totaled out on the right aft section of my RC, but I immediately got out of the car with not a single injury. Not even whiplash that people get weeks after. Excellent vehicle.

Had this car since new. If you can get past the low slung, cramped interior, this is a great car. Comfortable seats with all the, bells, whistles, and all the power you need. Gray w/red leather, it draws a lot of looks. The downside...22 MPG on premium fuel. On the positive side, getting into and out of the car keeps me limber. Don’t race but with this car, I could. If you are looking at luxury vehicles, this is worth consideration...

This is a great luxury sport car. It is more of a grand touring car. Stylish and great pick up. Fun to drive in sport mode and very reliable. I own a 2018 RC 350 F and really enjoy the car. It is not a race car. It holds its value.

If you want a sports car that is going to last a few years, depreciate like [non-permissible content removed] and cost you big bucks for maintenance and repairs, get a German car. If you want impeccable and engineering, best dependability of any car with the latest safety features, get the 2020 RC 350 with the inferred paint.my 2013 LExus gs 350 had 101,000 miles and it nevr broke down one time Brakes battery rotors and tires. That is it and I got $14,ooo trade in. $31,500 out the door , it was a return lease with 2020 miles on it. Guys and girls drool over this car in the inferred paint color. I did not buy this car to race, kids with garbage mustangs subaru, and chevy trash, i bought this car to like good, drive in style with economy, performance and dependability and safety systems, buy this car! Keep it in the garage, spend extra money to install clear bra, tint the windows and you are done! 24.mpg average mileage. 8 speed transmission does it all, lane departure, blind spot monitoring, pacing cruise control that uses radar to keep set distancing and auto braking. Back seat are small but the also fold down to fit long things. great sound system, quiet interior, base sound system is good. apple play.

I got caught in a snow storm October 24, 2019, on my way to Oklahoma. The blowing snow, freezing rain and blowing water from the road by other vehicles caused the entire front of the vehicle from the head lamps down to the lowest point of the grill to freeze over covering the sensors of which all became totally useless! I had to gently break the ice from the front of the vehicle each time I stopped for fuel at the half tank mark. I was under the impression that Lexus road tested their vehicles in all types of weather and road conditions. Being that the vehicle is so low to the ground and unless the new models are equipped with a front end defrost system I would advise buyers to run from it! Hopefully, Lexus will do better in the future! The one star rating is only for the stated conditions described above! Thank you, Stanley C. Williams [contact info removed].
Happy owner!
