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.

Very disappointing

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...

Luxury Sport Car

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.
