The Lexus RC F is loud aggressive and not really for this day and age. Much like a T-Rex. But with killer looks and a proper V8. What’s not to like?
This week we get up close and personal with the utterly massive Lexus LX 570 – an uber-luxury version of the Toyota Land Cruiser that packs all the donor-car’s off-road ability and adds a very generous helping of Lexus luxury.
The Lexus RC F takes over from the IS F as the performance flagship in the Lexus line up (not counting the limited LF A, that is) and as such packs a revised version of the 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V8 that featured in the IS, but in an all-new two door coupe body that takes the Japanese […]
Say you are stupidly rich and happen to have a Lexus LFA sitting in the garage. The time will come for it to need a service, so where do you take it? After all, with its bespoke V10 its not exactly like you local Toyota dealership would be too keen to have a go. Luckily, there […]

For a full Road Test of the Lexus IS300h F Sport click here. It is virtually impossible to talk about any IS without mentioning those confrontational looks – personally we here at Oversteer love them, although admittedly not at first. The vibrant blue of the car we tested here perfectly suited the sweeping, aggressive lines […]
The Lexus IS is the car that scared the hell out of BMW when it first car out. With a choice of a screaming four-cylinder or a refined V6, the IS was the car that looked set to challenge the 3 Series as the ruler of the medium sporty sedan segment. Except that never really […]
