Default 471 horsepower of luxury.

I brought my RC F sport in for an oil change. I came home with a different color. I don’t have deep pockets but to me this was a substantial purchase like my HiFi equipment. My initial thoughts were to get a Corvette this spring , Grand Sport or Z06. This is such a nice looking and driving car I couldn’t resist . I guess I can wait and see what the C8 has to offer .

I push the envelope with my wife’s patience, but that story would push me out the door [emoji376]

None the less enjoy the ride, and nice garage too!

Your title makes reference to 471HP, but that is only in the full blown V8 RC-F. Neither of the cars you are referencing are the V8 car, so you only have/had either 241HP or 311HP of luxury..

Wrong !!!![emoji850] I had the 314 hp v6 in the 2016 RC350 Fsport that I traded . I now have the LC500 with the 471 HP V8 parked next to the Camaro SS with a 6.2 V8 at 400hp . I added a few things with a Janetty tune to the SS for a dyno of 440Hp . The RC F also has 471Hp V8

The LC500 indeed makes 471 ponies. Congratulations on the new ride.
