Congrats! Got my 2015 IS350 F Sport in the same colour combination and the novelty never wears off, instead it gets even better over time. Happy mileage :)
FINALLY the long overdue 6-cylinder forced induction engine is on the horizon! Can't wait for it to make its way into the rest of the lineup, especially the RC...
It feels to me like we're seeing more of the LF-C2 of late. Could it be that the long overdue next Lexus convertible will be announced at the LA Auto Show this year, in RC guise perhaps?
The smaller engine option is good news indeed. Wish it were an LS300t trademark instead though. Considering the underwhelming power to weight ratio in the RC350, what are your opinions on this aspect of an LS350?
There is nothing wrong with the current 5.0l V8, in fact it's an amazing engine. We'll have it in the LC500 though. The LC F needs to boast more than a couple of horsepower increment over the non-F model. The twin turbocharged, 500 cc per cylinder, configuration seems to work well. As such my...

It does look like their timeline only spans to 2019 though and that everything is crammed into that column ;p Anyway, the site makes for interesting forecasts. Perhaps worth comparing with other vehicle manufacturers to see how accurately it lines up...
That site is only indicative of course, but I've found it to be mostly accurate in the past. It was accurate for the IS refresh that we just witnessed on Monday :) I don't see an LS reference in 2019 in the screenshot. Is there one on the site now?
According to the attachment from the following site, the new IS may be announced in 2018 as a 2019 model: http://www.autonews.com/section/fproductguide
The pity for us in South Africa is that no F models (neither RC F nor GS F) are for sale in our market. Since the previous IS F was sold here, there is some faint hope that a new IS F would make its way onto our dealership floors. That said, as much as I'm hoping for an IS F, it probably...
