Here’s an excellent occasion to take another look at the special Lexus RC F Carbon model shining in the lights of the reflectors as the automaker is showcasing it at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show.
There aren’t too many pictures with the all-new Lexus RC F Carbon on the Internet at the moment, so each new one is a good occasion to admire its shapes and excellent-looking black on white color theme.

The Lexus RC F Carbon is pretty much the best F car the luxury automaker will offer soon, promising performances close to what the out-of-production LFA provides, offered in a bolder shape and enhanced by the engine's growling.

We still don’t know for sure how powerful the new V8 engine is, but the automaker says it’s going to send over 450 hp to the rear wheels via an eight-speed direct shift automatic transmission. It will also use the Atkinson cycle when cruising or driving through the city to reduce fuel consumption and it will release the normal Otto Kraken when you step hard on the gas.

The RC F will be available in three grades, with the Carbon model being the top trim level and coming with all you need. It’s based on the Performance trim level and it adds a rear Torque Vectoring Differential, carbon fiber roof, wing and, for some countries, a carbon fiber hood, 19-inch multi-spoke rims and a Mark Levinson 17-speaker Premium sound system.
