Many car enthusiasts believe that modern cars no longer provide that pure driving pleasure due to the endless driver-assist technologies that tend to take over the control on the road. While it’s partially true for the majority of current models, there are still some driver-oriented cars that allow you to enjoy driving in its pure form, and the F edition of the Lexus RC happens to be one of them.

The Lexus RCF is a high-performance sports coupe that was introduced in 2014. It combines the best of what Lexus has to offer with the performance and handling you would expect from a true sports car. The RCF features a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 engine which produces 467 horsepower and 389 lb/ft torque. Featuring an RWD layout it provides the true sports car driving characteristics and precise handling in the stock form, but with some basic modifications, you can easily turn it into an ultimate adrenaline machine.
