The Lexus RC 350 will join the RC F as the 4 Series/M4 fighter from Lexus. Photographs don’t do the RC 350 justice, the flanks and rear of the car are good looking. The spindle grill is a love it or hate proposition, but the car still will make a strong showing in the market.

The RC 350 is equipped with a V6 and either a six or eight speed transmission. There is not a manual transmission available and gven the overall take rate of manuals for other marks it may be too much to ask for Lexus to offer a manual.
