Turbo V6 and an updated tranny would be sick
New Q50 coupe or whatever they call it should be worth waiting for if they keep the price relatively similar to the sedan.

This model adopts the 3.5-liter V-6 currently available in a handful of Lexus models but with an output of 314 horsepower. The transmission in the RC 350 is an eight-speed automatic with paddle shifters, borrowed from the outgoing IS F. In manual mode the transmission offers full torque converter lock up from second to eighth gears, which enables down changes in just 0.2 seconds.

im gonna guess its a tuned 2gr...
if so... theres so much potential for forced induction.

Those rear vents look tacky as hell, and totally not digging the contrast between the slatted upper grille and honeycomb lower grille.

its probably safe to assume that it'll be around the same as the 4 series and the rc f will be close to the m4 lol
