Japanese magazine Mag-X has read the tea leaves and built a production model Lexus RC F GT from the camouflaged prototype spotted last week.
A track-spec version of the Lexus coupe was teased in 2016 with the RC F GT concept, which featured an adjustable suspension, significant weight savings, and a massive fixed rear wing.
A cosmetic update will be coming to the RC F some time in the near future (Mag-X suggests it could be as early as this month) — this is standard procedure in a vehicle’s lifecycle, with reworked headlights and adjusted bumpers. The rendering illustrates these changes, along with an minor re-interpretation of the spindle grille:
I do like how lower vents box out the mesh grille, creating more visual separation and simplifying the complex patterns of the front end. However, this could also prove to be a flight-of-fancy from the artist.
Here is the full page from Mag-X, should you wish to glean any more details:
