Video: Lexus RC F Hits Top Speed of 176 Miles Per Hour


Sometimes it’s all about speed, so strap in and watch the Lexus RC F go from a full stop to 176 miles per hour (283km/h):

Let’s not slow down just yet — here’s a drift battle between the Toyota GT86, BMW M2, and the Lexus GS F:

The top speed video wasn't all that interesting, but the drift session was fun. The M2 got roasted by both the GT86 and the GS-F.

That's funny, I felt the opposite. The drift competition was a little dull, except when he would get to the angle readings -- hilarious how he just starts screaming.
RCF noise is never a dull moment. I get to experience it in real life. :)

On a side note, the driver was absolutely correct. People like to rag on the RCF being "too heavy", but when you look at the acceleration numbers especially beyond 100 km/h 100 - 200 km/h in only 9.8 seconds and 0 - 200 km/h in 14.5 seconds, you will realize, it is the quickest 0 - 200 km/h ever recorded for an F car (other than for the LFA). With a half decent 4.4 seconds 0 - 100 km/h, it would be even better at 14.2 seconds.
