Used Lexus RC 350 for Sale in Chesapeake, VA

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.

The steering is horrible. The vehicle alignment throws you to the curb, especially on wet surfaces. According to two different dealerships, the car is within spec. This is a car that is all for show, definitely not performance (and I opted for the F Sport). If you are an enthusiast, stick with the Germans or Brits. The pursuit of perfection? Far from it. Update: Since the above mentioned issue, Lexus of Tampa Bay went above and beyond to handle correcting the issue. ALL 8 South Florida locations I visited either inspected the car and retutned it with condescending and/or bogus explanations or outright refused to look at the car. The worst offender being JM Lexus. Lexus of Tampa were the only one interested in pleasing a customer. In summation, once corrected, the car has indeed been pleasing to drive but, it is more or less just for turning heads and getting attention. If you are a Toyota brand enthusiast, get a V6 Camary or a Lexus IS and save 10's of thousands. The early experience, poor customer service from Corporate and time that I had to invest in order to correct a factory issue they tried to ignore has made me a one time only Toyota/Lexus brand buyer.
