“If anything, I think my channel advertises the F brand more than Lexus does.”
😂 facts.
Im happy others agree with me on that 😁
@@thehuangbros I'm looking at 2016 RC 200t F-sport for $27k with 83k miles. One owner no accidents.......
should I buy? My only concern is the mileage.
@@AgeniszSamadhi 27000 is an ok price at a time like this.
why am i watching this. i don't have any money
Because of the facts and for when you get rich here in the next few months. 😁
You can have if you have the determination and patience my friend, 🎶doooon’t stop, beliieeevving🎶🤙

One day
Nothing else to do.
What to watch out for when buying an RC F. 1)You absolutely want the Mark Levinston audio upgrade. It’s more than incredible for car audio.
2) Kbb and banks do not have price differences for the audio or performance package so you’ll end up paying about the same for a car with or without out it so you can get some extra value from the car if you buy one with those options.
3)This car doesn’t sit very low for its class but it is one of the more harder cars to get under so if you like doing your own maintenance you’ll need low profile ramps and a low profile jack.
4) If you buy one, be ready for people to ask you what it is because they’ve never seen one. Then doubt you when you tell them it has a Japanese samurai V8. 😂
Good points. If I made a video about the possible specs the rcf comes with, man I would need help from everyone. Very long list. 😁
#4) I have a GSF and absolutely no one knows what it is. I totally believe it’s the same for the RCF! I like the “wolf in sheep’s clothing” vibe though.
Yes the mark lev system is so loud it feels like n aftermarket system.
@@riccccccardo all 17-19 speakers 🤣. Yeah Non ML systems, I can distinctly hear the lesser tones and sounds from that system. Overall the non ML system doesn’t sound loud.
@Denis Isaac like you’d pick and choose between Victoria’s Secret models....🙄
Just bought an RCF last week. My absolute must haves were the Mark Levinson sound system , triple beam headlights, and moon roof. I get stopped everyday that I drive it asking what kind of car it is. My choices were a C63s or RCF. Do not regret my decision
I've got used 2016 RC 350 F Sport in Ultrasonic Blue and it's perfect for my needs as a daily driver. I still get people coming up to me to say how awesome the car looks or want more info about it because they're so rare. It's definitely a great alternative to the RCF. I've put on the RR tune with headers, coilovers, and new exhaust and it's more then enough HP for me at the minute. Do I wish I had an RCF instead, of course. But with hopefully an LC-F coming soon (fingers crossed), by the time I'm looking for a new car in 4-5 years, I can move up into the V8 world unless the government regulation kills them. Keep up the great work :D
Oh absolutely. Like i said in the video, i owned an rc350 f sport. I had a good experience with it overall. Then i had the opportunity for an rcf and went for it. Im hoping the regulations doesnt get rid of all of it either. LCF would be great.
Do you notice a difference in the performance/acceleration? How much did it cost?
very nice I just got my 2017 Lexus RC 300 F Sport AWD it’s in ultrasonic metallic blue with tan interior and 27,000 miles it’s a fantastic car I love the interior and the exterior styling I really love that clock on the dash and I love the fact it still has a CD player because I do play CDs all the time One of the few car brands that does still have a CD in all 2022 models that I did get to look at two days ago when I bought the car $41,000 what is the price and the original window sticker was in the ballpark of $53,000
@@90sbuickguy84 I just picked up my 2015 RCF in Feb of this year with 32k miles for 49k 👀
I love blue but not a fan of that blue sorry. I wish they would use a grey blue like on the 2019 corvette called shadow grey. Its very sophisticated which would match Lexus.
I have just purchased a 2015 RCF Performance and couldn't be happier. I pick it up tomorrow. Thanks for the video that I may have found through confirmation bias.
words cannot describe how much I want an rcf. I have an infiniti g37 rn and am working hard asf to pay it off and hopefully trade it in for an rcf
I went from a 2017 BMW 340i msport to a 2016 GS-F. I’ve not thought once about trading my GSF for a German car - even the upcoming M3.
If you can find a GSF - they come standard will everything but ML speakers. Love these F Cars.
Wait ML speakers arent standard in GSF?
Oh,man,you have no idea how glad I am to see your comment.
I was stuck choosing betwee the 2018 340i and the rc f (pretty much the same thing as the gsf,kinda).
Lexus won me over,but I wasnt sure..
Now I am,more and more.
Cheers,man.
I had a 2016 bmw 340i fbo stage 2+ and went to a 2016 gsf also and i love it
@@chubz01 if you want tuning potential and forced induction go 340 if you want NA v8 go Lexus
Just got my rcf a few weeks back and absolutely love the car!
Brand new?
Super helpful for anyone buying a Lexus RCF bro! Keep Up the good content!
Thanks Mark.
I've been looking at buying one in a few months, Want a v8 but something comfortable. Of all the brands I've looked at other than Corvette, I think this car is one of the nicest looking, reliable options. It also doesn't look like it attracts a lot of attention.
It attracts good attention not the bad kind which gives this car an amazing feeling
RCF 2017+ had adaptive variable suspension that allows stiffening in sport+ and softening in other modes while the 2015 - 2016 RCF had fixed suspension so it is stiff all the time. Also, carbon roof adds more rigidity and lower CoG. I believe, the rear springs of the LSD and TVD RCF are different part numbers. Great video. Agreed, very happy owner of 4+ years of my RCF carbon/TVD.
Thats actually a very important point. Totally didnt come across when i started filming.
@@thehuangbros No worries man. Great work.
@@thehuangbros I recently got SprintBooster v3 for my RCF. Amazing product for a simple/cheap mod. Makes the car crazy responsive in sport+/manual with race mode 9. Cheers!
@@2ZZGE100 like pedal commander?
@@thehuangbros Yeah,, conceptually it is the same Did you have pedal commander? All long term reviews were great for the sprintbooster and it is tiny. I have a video of it on my channel going through some modes. It is tiny.
at last a few month, I was headache about the super annoying humming noise from my rear driver's side. I did tons of research online and finally figured out the problem is related to the fuel pump. I went to the local dealership, they did a reflash and the noise never happens again. Super helpful video, I wish I watched your video back then, and it would save me a lot of time.
Thanks. Mine still reoccurs from time to time
This is why I subscribe to this channel, F brand content needs more recognition!
I’m looking for an RCF myself, looking to upgrade from my IS250 my preferred specs are ultra white pearl with red interior, fun fact we have TVD with sunroofs here in Australia! Still going to be patient, trying to find the one.
The switch is very much worth it.
I was in those same shoes. My first Lexus ever is a 2014IS250 and went to a 2017 RCF. I can’t get enough of the v8. I test drove first a GSF, then 2 RCFs. The RCF just was the clear winner. It felt familiar like the size of the IS250.
But hope you find one. Australian here too with dual citizenship. Raised here in the states though.
Good luck on your search for an RCF or GSF.
There are some very early 2015 RCFs that had stand-alone TVD globally because Lexus was having issues with CF looming. Later 2015+ all had CF with TVD. Now, in the 2020+ Lexus offers TVD as a stand-alone option separate from the carbon package. It is best to get CF with TVD since it offsets some of the additional weight of the TVD. Also, it lowers center of gravity.
@@nacho7614 such a night and day difference with just 2 extra cylinders
This guy knows what he's talking about!!
Throwing in that past honda life 😂, keep up the good work doc.
Hahaha thanks. Worked on Hondas taught me a lot of my own skills. 😁
I have the 2015 RCF premium and love it and I like your programs very much. Keep it up for us
Thanks Robert.
I've been working my ass off, and thankfully I think I'll soon be in a position to be able get one. I've had mixed feeling about getting rid of my SAAB 9-2X, but after seeing these videos, it's definerly tipping the scales towards the RC 😂
I bought my 2015 RC-F with the TVD based on your info. Honestly the biggest thing to watch for is the carbon fiber interior door cluster plate is delaminating on the passenger side. Pretty much it.
52k miles and it doesn’t make any noises other than the normal vroom vroom noises. I get around 25.6 mpg when I’m being tame. This thing is really easy to drive and toss around. It inspires so much confidence vs the M4 bmw which has a tendency to punch the turbo in the corners and it really is easy to upset the balance.
So easiest way to put it: it drives easily and has tons of power. No one will give two shits about it because even “Car Guys” have no clue what it is
Many great points. No one knows what it is will always be around for the RCF.
I got my 2015 RCF a few months ago with 44k. I was wondering what that humming was in the back. The reason I went with the Lexus over a Corvette Stingray I was looking at was because of how many Corvettes came up during my search compared to how many RCFs came up (I like cars that are more rare). When the weather is better, I'm going to do a race for my channel between my RCF and my 1993 Honda Acty with a 660cc engine. Should be a close one haha
That would be a nice race to see. Honestly anything that is neck and neck with a rcf is always intriguing to watch because we all already know rcf is slow in the performance world of things.
I think 99% of people mistake my GSF as a GS350 lol, it's kinda sad that people don't know what these cars are. I'm really hoping lexus brings back the ISF.
Yeah most likely due to poor marketing. But everyone knows what a m3 is over a 3 series. 🤣
It is what it is,being a little heavy gives me a great ride and plenty fast enough for hitting the roads around Sarasota. I always enjoy your comments.
I still love the RCF. Best car Ive ever owned. Go to work, go to track, travel, travel and track. I still am able to drive the car comfortably back to home. Such an amazing machine
A good review 🍾 overall. Especially mentioning the possible problem areas on this model.
Just got mine, thanks for the heads-up about the fuel pump.
Sad part is that the humming in the back and chirping in the front is recurring even after the reflashes and recall work. But still good to go ahead and do it of course.
I just learned a lot about a car I've owned for 8 months now🤣
There you go, learn something new daily. 😀
lemme buy it when I get my license
pls
Lol i got this in my recommendations and i thought to myself, "i wonder if my friend Barry ever saw this video" then i saw your video channel name and i was like, "huh what a coincidence." Then lo and behold, its you!! Love your lexus bro!
Lol Steven! Welcome to the Huang Bros channel! Hahahaha
Great video man! I love my Lexus RC 350F sport. I made the same mistake and did not know about the RCF. I will be definitely upgrading soon.
I had the silver RC350 F Sport for quite a bit too. Then I hydroplaned and knew this is the chance to go RCF. I dont think back to RC350 days anymore.
Bro just found your page. Awesome page. I too got the rc 350 f sport first not knowing there was an F. So i do feel you on that. I still got the rc 350 f sport. So far I've done only interior mods and Cold air intake by AFE Takada
My dream car. I dream with this model everyday since 2017
Its a great reliable car. Very easy on maintenance.
Got this in my recommendation so I'll watch ur career with great interest lel
Always informative! I watched most of his vids before buying my RCF.
Very much appreciated
Great videos, I subscribed a little while ago, i only have positive things to say about you and thank you for such great content, like this video. I just found out about the fuel pump so I will be bringing my rcf to lexus. If I was to add anything as an Rcf owner is that at first I was a little upset coming from a big modding and aftermarket culture from previous builds to find out that there is a very limited market for the rcf, that being said anything for this car is pricy and there's not much too choose from, but after owning it for more than year, I love the fact that I don't see my car around town too much even in carmeets there's ppl that are completely blown out to find out about the performance behind this car and just say "wao I didn't know lexus made cars like this" lol anyways just for any future rcf owners out there, know that you will be have a very unique, under appreciated vehicle that would not be the first on the finish line but def won't be the last and will always leave a smile on your face everytime you drive it not to mention bang for the buck if you where to compare it to other cars with similar performance. Peace and be blessed. Thank you for your content bro
Hey thanks for dropping your thoughts down. Really appreciate it as I completely agree. Just yesterday, I drove from VA to MD, there was a stretch of the highway that had people just looking at me while I was driving. They probably know what it was but ultimately never seen it around so I completely agree. I appreciate you appreciating the content haha. Trying to fill youtube with more RCF content other than exhaust videos and bad mouthing reviews.
Having the carbon fiber roof is better than the sunroof. Mine had a sunroof as well and I didn't even use it as much as I thought I would have. In fact I kept the sunroof shade closed most of the time.
Me too. So when I got a second rcf, i knew no sunroof.
Sometimes I want one in my RCF with carbon fiber, but then I drive my Bmw and forgot it even had a sunroof and I never use it😂
I just bought a 2015 nebula gray with sunroof…. I think ima carbon wrap the roof and spoiler cuz I like how it looks
Would you buy one cheap that has over 100,000 mi
Y if still drive good and no accidents 😊
Toyota's original MKV. Thanks for the upload, I've been looking to get one.
You will enjoy it.
Nice video, just got a cpo like yours(color combo) but with sunroof. I couldn't pass up the price on the CPO and the condition, it was flawless and sat at the dealer for 3 months so it was cheap. I would prefer the TVD, but I like the sunroof closed with the viewer open, makes the cabin seem larger, I'm very tall so it does make a slight difference. But, price being equal or close and condition I would gladly have a TVD. I saw quite a few TVD ones, most had chips all over the roof unfortunately. Another thing I saw was leased used RCF had many more scratches in the interior and on the nav screen, that is something that doesn't show up on website photos, see the car in person before you buy, the interior can get scratched easily.
Interesting enough, the sunroof rcf is actually slightly taller roofing. Friend tried to put a studio rsr cage and it wouldnt fit because it was meant for the other rcf.
I was looking into a RC-F. I wouldn’t buy one because it has barely any after market support for tunning. That’s the sad part. I got a Lexus as my daily but rather buy a E63 AMG or RS3. They both are reliable cars and have really good after market support.
Yeap tuning support is nearly nonexistent. The Lexus ECUs are hard to work with.
I have a RCF 2015 and to be honest I don't drive it much since the pandemic. When I do though, it's like driving a brand new car each time. So much fun. You go on a straight going 100km/h and you floor it. There are 2 gear shift (in automatic mode, sport + traction control disabled) and you are at 160-170km/h and it's was couple of seconds. I really like the vette, but people are asking too much for a car that general public doesn't like that much.
This car make heads turns because they don't know what it is. I learned about the RC-F only 1 month before buying it and I bought it in 2019. If I change my car it will probably be for another RCF.
Returning to an RCF. Nice good choice. 😀
The chirp you're hearing is nothing to worry about. It's from the injectors. They spray at high PSI, hence the high pressure fuel pump. It's a characteristic of all direct injection cars.
Thanks for confirming that
Potential buyer. One option confuse me. There is active wing and than there is option for wing add-on as dealer option. What are the difference?
Sunroof all the way Barry!!!. Whats up, thanks for meeting out in Los Olivos and dropping off that roof spoiler. Enjoying the channel.
Hey man whats up! Thanks for watching haha. You just got a LC recently?
@@thehuangbros Yes sir! Picked up a 2021 Infrared convertible. That thing is amazing.
@@manny535i how does it feel with top down haha. It must be an exhilarating feel. The exhaust must sound great stock
@@thehuangbros It's as you stated in your video about the sunroof. I didnt think myself a convertible guy, but taking the top down is an pretty awesome experience. The exhaust sounds great, with the top down its sounds even better..lol. S+ and shifting gives you some nice pops and the car feels incredible. If you ever come down, you can review the car for the channel if you'd like.
@@manny535i that would be awesome. Ive been in a S2000 with top down and thats about it but I do think top down convertible is a great experience.
That's a crazy amount of information! Great video guys!
Thanks Phuong, the deal breaker may be the tuning possibilities.
honestly the main reasons I got the 370z is the huge aftermarket potential added on with endless places and ecu, up rev and so many tuning options. One can legit get a flame map with a catback and intakes
Yeap, Lexus overall lacks in the tuning department since the ECU is so hard to crack. The aftermarket support is like 10% of what is offered to 370z. 🙁
@@thehuangbros do you think lexus will ever offer a car or bring back an old one with after market potential
@@iTeHee if you’ve seen the Lexus news recently, the new F brand cars are coming I think in the future. So I think that is when we can really gauge whether it is possible to determine that. Since they are stating turbo engine setups.
@@thehuangbros interesting for sure
If you put the vin of the RCF into carfax and look at the free report on their cars they usually list for sale, it’ll tell you if there is a recall on that specific RCF or not.
Did they make you choose between the sunroof and the TVD?
Here in Australia there was only one trim, with no options available (aside from wheels); everything was standard. That includes Mark Levinson, sunroof, triple LED headlights and the TVD.
I agree with the remarks about speed. Lots of people online argue about how "X car has Y more horsepower" or "A has a 0.2 second 0-60" time. In reality, the car is plenty fast despite the weight. It's more than enough for the street, and you're always a few seconds away from 'lose your licence' speeds anyway. Those small differences in acceleration or power mean nothing, really.
I didnt get to choose between sunroof and tvd. Agreed on your statement about speed. You can only truly be allowed to go so fast. Really no competition unless you race to see who can go merge onto traffic the quickest lol
I have a important question. Please help me. If I bought a used rc F. And my car get recall. If i bring it to dealer, will they fix it for free or I need to pay for it?
Recalls will be fixed for free. Just bring it in.
Is there a significant difference in handling from the limited slip to the torque vectoring vehicles? How about wet vs dry pavement? Thank you
If on public roads, you only feel slalom mode when changing lanes and spirited driving. On the track, you can feel the mode differences a bit more. If comparing torsen vs tvd, there is a difference in feel when you accelerate. I can say this since i have owned both in a rcf. Wet or dry, it didnt matter which differential you had honestly.
Uhm the difference is.. when turning the outside wheel spins faster than the inside wheel. Tvd is built for this, it sends more power to the outside wheel (torque vectoring) which reduces understeer. The car's speed is related to the amount it's tvd enhances turning behavior. More speed=sharper handling compared with a standard lsd
Reading into Torsen vs TVD. If you like tracking TVD way superior but if you like doing dumb shit, getting sideways and doing donuts apparently Torsen is better lol
I own 2017 Lexus I S 300 all-wheel-drive
F-sport Series 2 and I was thinking of selling this car and getting a RCF because my dad just got a Toyota Supra and it gives me the trails that I think the RCF would
No regrets. If went from RC 350 F Sport to RCF. Big difference in power. Very addictive
I'll keep my '61 Rambler Classic thank you.
🤣
went from the tlx and q50s red sport 400 but they were unreliable, always came crawling back to lexus... just found your channel so i can learn more about the rcf and other f models thanks!
I have a tlx back home too. That was u reliable?
Unreliable?

the "rattling/clacking" noise from the fuel injectors is normal. all engines with direct fuel injection make that sound.
👍🏼 acknowledged.
Great content !! Love your vids . I just subscribed.
Thanks man! Hope the content can help you somehow.
The sound at 1:50 is totally normal for Toyota brand cars. I have heard it in many models.
👍 good to know
Very informative vid, good stuff 👍
There are TWO high pressure fuel pumps , one on each head.
Yes there are

Preach twin! Another ☝🏾, good job...
Hey I really appreciate you always showing some love and support for the content. Thank you.
Then theres my RCF which is the premiere edition which has TVD, the status grey interior and no sunroof and no carbon roof LOL. Also my RCF has 2 LED's.
Your version is like the 2014-2015 version haha. Rare
Nice car man. I have a tuned 2021 civic and after watching your videos and other videos I want to switch to lexus rcf.
Please be aware if you have a problem with the TVD it can cost $25,000 to replace the entire unit.
have done a similar video on the GSF? just curious. First time watching this channel and video. GREAT VIDEO!
I have not. I dont think Ive ever had a opportunity to film a GSF as the topic.
Whats the difference between active wing and dealer add-on wing option?
Standard Torsen LSD or TVD. I’m a highway driver. Occasional twisty. No track. Any need for TVD. Thanks
Why'd you choose this over something like an m4 or c63s? I'm currently looking at all three of these
Personally the headlights attracted me. Then the interior once I saw it. Then found out it is a 5.0 v8. Then I realized it is just a fancy glorified toyota which means doing maintenance is very simple and easy as shown throughout my youtube channel. The fact that I can maintain it myself is the key for me. Ive owned this car for 40k miles. Its currently at 92k miles. Ive spend only a total of 1500 dollars since its all diy. Brake fluid, oil changes, rear diff fluid, auto trans fluid, brake pads, spark plugs, and whatever else diy. Hope that helps you out
Dude fix you inner fender well!
One day
That strut bar is beastly.
Haha OP strut bar
Why would you change your trans fluid more often then the differential? It has 3 times the fluid capacity
I do a drain and fill for trans and diff and tvd modules every 30k. Not sure what youre referring to unless youre trying to do it enough times to be 90% new fluid
i have to say the tvd is not recommended, lexus recently said that the rear wheel steering didn't suit the character of the rcf. when looking back.
i know the differential has more to do with torque then steering but if you look underneath you will see the steering control arms the rear has, it's not in the marketing material. also it adds 50 pounds
@@salami99 probably the reason they had torsen lsd in track edition and fuji edition rcf.
Awesome vid, but the music is so loud, I tried change sound settings in windows but still, idk if it's only me
This video is super helpful! I've been looking at this car for quite some time and I'm not mechanically inclined so hopefully I can find a honest mechanic once I get one of these. I test drove a 2015 today but noticed the carbon fiber on the door interior started to peel. Also the engine once I took off the cover had some corrosion, not sure if this is normal.
Woah! Corrosion on engine? That is not normal by any means. The engine is covered by hood so im curious as to how corroded.
@@thehuangbros exactly! it even had rust towards the bottom so that might be possible flood damage. I passed on it but looking at one in Texas
@@slappagon good call
I have a 2016 GS F, and the dealer told me that "chirping" sounds is normal 🤷. I did get both fuel pumps replaced under warranty/recall
Thats good 👍🏼
@@thehuangbros I'm kinda eyeing a 2021 RC F, my car has 80k miles. I want something new lol
@@oscarbadillo3844 its a fun car.
I don't have to worry about these recalls since i'm buying a 2021 Rc F
Yeap you dont.
I have a RCF 2017 Fuji track edition it has a supercharger built by R& R racing 🏎️ the problem I keep having is that the PCS light keeps coming on making the car go into a limp mode what do you recommend
There is no such thing as a 2017 fuji track edition tho...
Great video, can anyone send me or post a link where it shows an RCF with the base dual LED headlights ??
I want a RC-F performance pkg, 5.0 V8 engine 0-80 4.4 seconds 472hp damn. I need that in my life I'm driving a 2021 IS 300 its nice but boring 4 cyc inline turbocharged is cool.
Can’t be that boring is it? Is the acceleration what makes it boring?
The key thing for tuning would be light brake rotors. They weigh too much, around 15kg front and 12kg rear. This is what makes the car appear "heavy".
It doesn't appear heavy, it is fecking heavy lol. Damn near weights 4000 pounds
Wait, I thought triple beams were standard on rcf same as with ML stereo
Both are not standard. There are a lot of 3LED and ML systems out there but it isn’t standard unfortunately.
Took my rcf to Lexus after I heard the chirping and the guy told me they won’t replace it because it’s just a noise and it’s not actually harming anything. But there is actually a recall?
Yeap the high pressure fuel pumps up front is recall. The humming in the back is just a ecu reflash. I had all of it done on mine and it just returns from time to time. So I just live with it since it hasnt hindered my perfromance
Can you put the RCF Track Edition Carbon Ceramic pads and rotors on the RCF?
Barry could you do a video of you changing the brake pads on the RCF.
Hi Jimmy. I actually have that video up already on my channel. Just search up Huang Bros Brake Pads. It was probably my 4th video up on this channel haha. 😁
@@thehuangbros Ahhh I see it. June 17th 2020
I really think this is the next car. I’ve been going back and forth for a couple months now. It’s really hard to figure this next car or truck out. Idk why
Its a good car.
i wanna get a lexus rcf for my first car bro idk if i wanna get the 2015 or 2019 but you said you can only tune your car if you get the 2015 only? like you can’t tune the 2019 one at all but also isn’t the 2019 one alr faster then the 2015?
They are the same. It is not faster. You can get a 2019 and buy a 2015-2015 ecu to put into a new one to tune I hear.
Waiting for the spark plug install vid 🙏🙏
Haha everyone is. Ill probably change again at 100k just to have the video up to help people. So thats in 7k miles
There are a few RCFs with sunroof AND TVD out there. My RCF has both.
Nice. What country? I just met a RCF owner with TVD and no sunroof last weekend
@@thehuangbros US - Doing some research, my 2015 (11/14 - 000935 - USA) was one of the very early ones before they set the TVD option only being available in performance package or a complete custom order. I'm the second owner, bought it with 1,500 miles on it after the previous owner traded it in for one of the first LCF that were released. Guess I got a bit of a unicorn. haha.

I have a 2016 RCF that's fully loaded being delivered to me next week. What's your thoughts on the TVD? Best mode for just spirited street driving?
For street driving expert is good but slalom you really feel it. I like tvd
@@thehuangbros Awesome thanks, I'll be using your recommendations from some of your videos. First upgrade is that awful infotainment display.
I’m trying to decided on premium tyres to get I had mitchlin ps4 on prev car but they like 900 on my Gs which to much so want a cheaper alternative no more then 600 for four.
Try the indy firehawk 500 tire.
I own a 2005 honda civic dx with 198,000 miles still going. My friend have sent me to see your video about the rc f. U mentioned from the video that it have tvd. Can this car drive on ❄️?
Ive driven in snow. Im here in Germany now with it. If you put snow tires or all season tires on there, it would be fine.
Have you drove this bad boy in the winter ?? What are are you in
Im in montreal and if i pick it up it will be my daily
I daily drive it when it isnt down. I drive it in light snow.
Im planning to buy one but Im not sure if I should get a used 2020 or used 2016 are there any big differences I should know for year model? (like deal breaker)
Biggest difference in my opinion is 2015-2016 ecu you can tune. 2017 and 2018 will need a 15/16’ year ecu to tune. 2019-now you cant tune. But it doesnt mean you cant have fun with 2020 in regards to intake headers, exhaust. Intake and exhaust you can do without tune but its recommendes to do headers with a tune to maximize headers performance output. But you can still do IHE without tune. 2020 has carplay already in it, I think thats a good thing. Other than what I just stated, its just all exterior and interior design aside from the tune and carplay.
the ticking noise? if its a light ticking noise I'm pretty sure its the direct/ port injection
and is that Elvin steering wheel?
Yeah Im sure its the injection. There was another noise but the car couldnt recreate the.l noise when I filmed. It is not a Elvin steering wheel.
Yo bro. I sell Lexus. And I got a 2020 white rcf. Best car ever. U should really make a video on the refresh 2020 model. They tuned the suspension to perfection on then 2020 model. It's way more street friendly. I feel that the pre-2020 models are a bit stiff. But the new 2020 is almost perfect imo.
Thats good to know. One day Ill find a 2020 model or newer and try it out.
@@thehuangbros lol come to sf I'll let you whip mine around
is a 2015 rc f with around 50k miles and multiple owners worth it? and will it have problems.
A Lexus RCF will last a long time if you take care of it. 52k miles is what I bought mine at. I haven’t taken a look at how many owners my car had. But it is a good car so far.
Hey man just got me a RC 350, was wondering what kind of exhaust I should get. Don’t want nothing too loud just enough to make it sound better than stock. Any advice?
Hey! I own a 2018 IS300 and really wanted a 2021 RCF next year, do you have any advice or pointers that I’m gonna need?
For a 2021, I personally do not have any experience with the facelift models. I will say the exhausts are the compatible, intake systems, headers, suspension parts. Chassis is still the same just different exterior. If there are any suggestions I would give to buying a 2021 RCF, it would be get the wheel protection plan unless you plan to sell the oem wheels. Check the carbon fiber interior pieces because they are known to have the epoxy lift. The car is generally pretty solid but just know you wont be able to tune it if you go with a 2021. ECU has not been able to be tuned.
Sunroof is a must
I use to be that way. Loved touching the air.
How much bigger than an IS is it?
My dad has a 2015 IS350 F and it’s the PERFECT size, small and sporty.
For some reason the RC looks absolutely HUGE on the outside... is it just my eyes deceiving me or is it actually much bigger than the IS?
IS interior space is bigger. The front of RC interior matches very similar to IS but the back with it being a coupe, closes in on the rear seat passengers.
@@thehuangbros oh no I mean the exterior. The actual size of the car from the outside seems huge.
Is the outside much bigger than the IS?
@@WholesaleJewelleryAustralia the front and rear of the car is actually a GS chassis so Ill say yes it is bigger by design. The length wise of the car, I think IS is longer
This is the reason why i rcf it.😊😊😊
Do all RC-Fs have adaptive cruise control?
I would love for that to be true but it isnt. My first RCF did not have adaptive cruise control.
