All three versions of the RC-F still showing on the Lexus UK configurator this morning - if they allow you to order one or not is another matter!

Thought I would do my bit to keep as many V8's on the road as possible, so put down a deposit on this today.

Looking forward to many years of sweet music.

Best colour!
ETA do think about an immobiliser to prevent canbus theft. I needed a tracker for the insurers and paid extra for an immobiliser upgrade.
I’ve also got a Milenco steering lock on mine which seems to get good reviews and it’s not the sort that’ll potentially mark the steering wheel leather.

I think 'everyone' agrees that green is the best!



Should just add that that car isn't mine, although mine is the same colour combo. Mine is embarrassingly too dirty to use to illustrate the colour.

The green looks very elegant, and is obviously a rare colour.

Congratulations, similar spec to mine cloud9beer

If you haven't already seen it, this ought to help get you in the mood for that music. Depending on your age it's either British Rally Champion or James Bond's stunt driver Mark Higgins showing it off.

I’m in the market for a Red or structural blue LC500 V8 sport+ coupe. If it’s red I’d like the tan or red/black interior if it’s blue the white interior. Very few around. If anyone knows of such a car I’d
Be grateful to know about it.

The OC tend to watch the market, so might be aware of where one is.

If you can get a structural blue then that's the one to get.

There are a few interesting articles on the 'net about the structural blue paint.
Surprisingly, there is no blue pigment in it.
Heaven knows what you do if you need to correct damage.

Red with tan convertible came on at Lexus burmingum yesterday? 77k - fairly sensibly priced, not quite a sport plus as it has no rear wheel steer because of the convertible chassis strengthening but it’ll have a better noise cos the roof comes off.
Note some Lexus dealers don’t seem to get their cars onto autotrader very quickly, sometimes not at all, so do check the Lexus used website, plus I’ve also seen eBay advertising cars that aren’t on autotrader.
