Buying the 2015 Lexus RC
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2015 Lexus RC for sale by us right now. For anyone shopping for the 2015 Lexus RC, here are the facts that matter.
What to check on the RC
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Owners filed 24 complaints with NHTSA, most often about seats, fuel/propulsion system and electrical system; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
The figures, translated
Power: the 3.5L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
At 10.5 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 32 litres of fuel. A 300 km weekend costs about $55.14 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,750 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
When the RC makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Space and size
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA measures its luggage space at 283 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If the RC is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Drive the RC on your commute before you commit to it.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.38 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $183.80 at our price setting.
