BMW M4 or Lexus RCF?

I saw the RCF in person today. Everything but the front end looks great. I hope Lexus tones it down. Other than that, I love the car!

I agree about the looks, front end is a little too much. Where did you see it?

Kinda dissappointed it does not come with a manual trans as the head developer of the car did say the RCF was created for pure driving enjoyment. For many of us, pure driving enjoyment = manual trans.

M4 to answer question but the new Z is where I'm headed. Z06 that is. But not until 2016 and I've paid off my building.

There's a Lexus Corporate office in the town where I get my hair cut. I was driving by and it caught my eye so I pulled into the lot to take a look.

I agree, it should have a manual, or a dct. Looks like they just carried over the 8spd auto from the ISF

It was in the lot of their corporate office in Naperville. Had manufacture tags on it. Not sure if it's still there, I'm sure it was some execs company car.
