Lexus has released all the details and pricing for the 2015 Lexus RC F, which will go head to head with the BMW M4. The Lexus RC F is now on sale with a price tag that starts at $63,325, which is slightly less than the M4’s starting price.
Under the hood the RC F is powered by a naturally-aspirated 5.0L V8 that generates 467 horsepower, 42 more horsepower than the M4.
