    Lexus To Reveal The Hot LC F Later This Year

    If you want a fast Lexus and aren’t willing to pay a few million Rand for a used LFA (if you can find one), then the best that Lexus offer at the moment is the LC. The LC500 version of the model offers 471 horsepower (351 kW) and 539 Nm of torque from its naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V8. There have been some rumours, however, that a new, faster version of the LC will be coming later this year, should the current range not offer you enough oomph.

    Carbuzz recently had a few words with Moe Durand, Lexus’ International Strategic Communications Senior Manager. According to him, “something big is coming to LC this year.” Durand did not disclose any more details about what this would be exactly.

    We are quite sure of two possibilities, though. One, is that we are likely to see a performance-oriented LC F as a test mule of some sort has been shown at a recent Lexus event. The second, is that we could be seeing a LC convertible, as was seen in concept form earlier this year.

    It is not certain as to what engine the rumoured LC F could feature. Some say it will retain its endangered naturally-aspirated engine but pump out up to 600 horsepower (447 kW), while others report that Lexus is working on a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8. Another possibility is the use of a hybrid V8 engine, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
