Same question applies for actual performance. Is this IS500 F Sport actually going to be outperformed by the RC F? It seems unlikely. I fact, I would not be surprised if this beats the RC F in many categories.
I think Savagegeese said the only F-parts it doesn't include are the seats and oil coolers. It should also be lighter than the RC-F at under 3900lbs.
