What If Lexus Took On The Mercedes C63 With A Shooting Brake RC F?

While there is absolutely no indication Lexus has plans to make a Shooting Brake variant of the RC F, it isn’t something we would dismiss out of hand, especially after checking out this rendering courtesy of X-Tomi Design. The coupe’s aggressive, aerodynamic styling, and 19-inch alloys carry over, while the back end has been smartly redesigned. A 467-hp 5.0-liter V8 helping the wagon hit 62 mph in 4.5 seconds and a 170-mph top speed makes this a particularly enticing proposition.

Wow, so a rendering by some dude means it is worthy of production. Come on everyone chime in cos all Lexus cares about is Autospies posts.

has nothing to do with that. In the real world (outside the US) the estate wagon is a powerhouse seller. Lexus is the weakest in these areas, but refuses to compete in the segment that might benefit it the most.

They would take it on with a shooting brake why exactly? If they wanted to build a shooting brake, they would still be looking at a TINY amount of sales worldwide. A shooting brake is not a station wagon.
