As for the design, this is what I think happened. Toyota wanted their cars to appeal to a more youthful audience, so they sent their designers to a Japanese middle school for ideas... and no where else.


This car screams Japanese transformer if you're into that type of thing. I loved the new L-Finesse GS and LS from the beginning but the IS took some time to grow on me so maybe the RC-F will also. The huge grill doesn't bother me, the FRS-like cheap rear end and wheels are what bother me. Those wheels are awful but the interior is done nicely. From the LFA like seats to the LFA like gauges. A NA V8 doesn't hurt but I am disappointed that it's an 8 speed Aisin slush box. It may have more horsepower but I'm betting the M4 will be faster because it's lighter and that DCT will help save a few tenths of a second.
