Him, Moto man, and someone else (take Jay Leno or Seinfeld) should be the hosts of the US Top Gear Leno would be Clarkson, Motoman would be Hammond, and Cooley would be Captain Cooley
There's reviews then there's Cooley reviews the living legend dose it again shame there isn't enough of him now days Sir Cooley we need more of you PLEASE .....I love Lexus cars . Love it when he says one the ONCARS programme Ugly comes at no extra cost lol. I wish he brings them back.
Great video review. Bought an F Sport in the Molten Pearl (Orange). Love it! Touchpad for navigation sucks though, prefer the remote touch interface. Actually the navigation sucks too. But the car is great. I special ordered mine with the F Sport exhaust, F Sport lowering springs, and F Sport forged wheels. All of which should have come standard on the F Sport package :-(. Mine feels very quick (definitely quick enough for my wife and I), and it sounds great too!
While the price tag should warrant a boost in engine power, this is a fully-loaded AWD model and it aims to target a market of car buyers who are looking for a reliable daily driver. The RC line is aesthetically pleasing, but is clearly a tier away from the AMG and M competitors in pure power and performance
I test drove one yesterday and didn't like it at all. I'm 6'1 and felt I was trapped inside the car, car didn't feel like had 300 horsepower and even though it didn't have turbos in it, I still felt the lag between gear shifts and it looked like car was always looking for bigger gears. I don't recommend it as a sports car and even the sales guy said, it's a coupe but not really a sports car.
I love the look/style of this car. I just hate the UI. I had a CT200h for a few years and getting through that 2000s esk mess was just awful. Seriously needs an update to match the car and times.
they go from the greatness of the LFA to making this crap, even the RCF has been also now I want to shift to slowly for its class that's just sad and im a toyota/lexus fan, so I was very disappointed
as a lexus owner, i must say im pretty disappointed with the performance of these "F-Sport" cars. I know lexus is a luxury brand but come on. 3.5L V6 and only 5.8 sec to 60? Lexus can do better.
chris ce i was actually considering a used 2011 m3 before buying my 2015 IS. They were roughly the same price but i didnt think i could handle the maintenance costs on that m3 lol. Couple of my friends said once that dct tranny goes out, its like 6k to fix
chris ce Yeah i would think that too. But living off parents money only goes so far. I was blessed enough to get a brand new lexus for my 17th birthday
While the RC350 is a good looking car in the outside. For the price I feel the Lexus RC350 is under powered with only 306 HP. The inside of the car also looks out dated particularly the center console and navigation. For the price Toyota needs to significantly up the Horse Power and Torque.
Where are your comments on all the Jaguar videos on youtube? What about BMW videos? The 4 series makes 14 hp more than this does. Their entry level 4 series makes 248hp.... Why do all of you expect Lexus to make more power when BMW, Mercedes, Audi and the like all make the same power while charging more. Get real
I have said it before and I will say it again, Cooley needs his own Channel, he will take over half of Cnet subs !
Him, Moto man, and someone else (take Jay Leno or Seinfeld) should be the hosts of the US Top Gear
Leno would be Clarkson, Motoman would be Hammond, and Cooley would be Captain Cooley
that would be awesome
I have the RC 350 F sport, and find myself taking it more often than my SUV. Love this car!
TooJ Kool did u found any orange color RC?
Zhao Jay Yes. In CT.
TooJ Kool whats a CT?
Zhao Jay Connecticut

Gorgeous car, defiantly a daily driver too, he left out a lot of features this car has.

every time Cooley does a review it turns into a fanboy comment section...
It’s a dd luxury sports car! It’s for fuel economy, comfort, and sporty. Reliable car also.
The interior looks like one of those silver Hi-Fi system they used to sell in the late 90s.
What is the name of the music at the end of the video?
COOLEY!
This reminds me of the small scion TC car with Lexus sheet metal and and motor

a little short on the numbers for that price but lexus vehicles are very attractive
How does it feel getting dusted by a Civic @ 4:15 ? Lol
i'm curious to see how these sell
Did he say, “... An upside down puck?” 😅
Sooo, FR-S with a V6? Cool.
ThinkOutsideTheCube cool!
:)
Saw one on the road looked like a mazda 6 from the back
Cooley!
Surprised that this car goes that quick because of the weight almost 4,000 pounds and only 306 HP.
why 60p thought?
I definitely like.
Better than 428i?
cooley all the way
cooley FTW!
Does ugly come at no extra cost?
yes
It's free and you still can't afford
matthew von Should I apply ice to that burn?
What car did he say that in. I wanna see
prettyrickyd47 it's one of the Volkswagen jetta videos there are a few of them but other than that it should be easy to find
Mr. Cooley does it have the same underpinnings as a FRS or a BRZ?

0:50 How can low gas prices be unfortunate?
Spillow for the automaker who is trying to sell an RC300h lol
This car will get you the ladies
Him, Moto man, and someone else (take Jay Leno or Seinfeld) should be the hosts of the US Top Gear this is true.
the closest thing to a supra on the market.
Needs turbos , should have 400 horsepower
Needs to be wider and it would be perfect
I sat in this at the dealership. The interior reminded me of a Lenovo Thinkpad. Not my choice for spending $60k on.
Jak X music in the beginning.
Cooley
That orange paint makes the exterior even worse...

Ugly comes free.
0:50 that did not age well.
You could buy 2 Accord Coupe V6s for that money.
Hell...you could buy 4 Smart cars.
i could buy your mom also
Michael Leibowitz no but your mom does
Boss Bic
No, she doesn't. ;-)
Then your stuck with 2 accords .. call that hell
You can almost get a Jaguar for that money.
$57,000!?
you know how many McChickens that's worth??
not many comments yet...
id preferd a m4, rs5, and c63 any day over this shit
they go from the greatness of the LFA to making this crap, even the RCF has been also now I want to shift to slowly for its class that's just sad and im a toyota/lexus fan, so I was very disappointed
You can get a Hellcat for that much money!
YazeedSaber I'd rather not bother with that stupid thing.
as a lexus owner, i must say im pretty disappointed with the performance of these "F-Sport" cars. I know lexus is a luxury brand but come on. 3.5L V6 and only 5.8 sec to 60? Lexus can do better.
chris ce making a faster car means it breaks down more often? what kind of logic is that
chris ce i was actually considering a used 2011 m3 before buying my 2015 IS. They were roughly the same price but i didnt think i could handle the maintenance costs on that m3 lol. Couple of my friends said once that dct tranny goes out, its like 6k to fix
chris ce Yeah i would think that too. But living off parents money only goes so far. I was blessed enough to get a brand new lexus for my 17th birthday
+Chris Park Maybe the RC-F or the upcoming GS-F can satisfy you ^_^. Or unless you can find an LFA laying around lol.
Message Man lol i wish i can get the rcf. Soon though. Maybe in a few years.
335i, 435i, A4, C400, all within that price range. I think Lexus lost me. :(
This is the car one would drive if they're in a midlife crisis.
damn thats pricy..didnt know that.
Extra options is a way for them to make more money. We don’t need it for dd. It’s $50k or under car. Not bad.
GBO!
if for no other reason than reliability I would consider this over the BMW, despite the fact that the BMW is most likely superior.
My lexus just hit 215k! Never had a single issue in 3 years I've had it
kgisabeast please don't tell me its a first gen IS.
No, 2nd gen GS actually, but same engine
I guess in US you pay abotu $2K for AWD... in Canada AWD RC is cheaper than a RWD RC.
A nice car, but I would much rather prefer the BMW 2 series.
I like a lexus cars
Hmmm...Cooley!!!
57k haha get the real rcf for that price
+Noel Gill umm no the rc f is like 85k after taxes and dealer fees.
I'll take the new mustang Shelby 350
2 totally diff cars
$57,000 for a car that has 306 horsepower? Lol no thanks!
dude just drive your 2002 mustang back to your moms trailer, you wouldn't understand how a luxury car works. #oookillem
bmw 435i 300 horsepower and it coasts 67,000
How much Horse Power do you morons want?....How often are you gonna use ALL that Horse Power?...Do u live on a track? Smh
penvon lmfao!
penvon Yep, guys use the amount of horse power in their cars to compensate for something else they may be insecure about.. haha
i rather get wrx sti sports tech
hahahah 5.6 sec 0-60
my z06 does 0-90 in 5.6 seconds lol real talk… not impressed
also a larger motor in a z06. the two don't compare
Poor car... Its handling sucks...
Definitely not worth the price.
in your opinion.
While the RC350 is a good looking car in the outside. For the price I feel the Lexus RC350 is under powered with only 306 HP. The inside of the car also looks out dated particularly the center console and navigation. For the price Toyota needs to significantly up the Horse Power and Torque.
Rez I agree, the interface looks so outdated

Why do all of you expect Lexus to make more power when BMW, Mercedes, Audi and the like all make the same power while charging more. Get real
That is one horrible looking motor...
yawn car
Great car. Terrible color.
it is so ugly !
Lexus can't make a car like Acura does..
Thank God for that. There's only so much shit the automotive world can handle.
Michael Leibowitz hahahaha
Michael Leibowitz I don't even agree, but that made me laugh out loud haha :D
how many acuras do you see on the road everyday?
Lmao Acura ? A car company as boring as Volvo ? Please
M4 is better
It should be. It's more expensive.
S5 or 435i M Sport>>>>> this ugly ass Lexus
