Lexus closed out the RC F with a single, fully loaded Final Edition for the 2025 model year, and every one of them carries a carbon fiber badge stamped with its own production number.
The Final Edition was the only RC F that American buyers could order for 2025, and it was the last year for the whole RC coupe line after roughly a decade on sale. Lexus said the RC and RC F together sold more than 90,000 units across 62 countries and regions in that time, and production of both coupes was scheduled to end in November 2025.
According to Lexus Enthusiast’s rundown of the 2025 lineup, the RC F Final Edition keeps the 5.0-liter naturally aspirated 2UR-GSE V8, rated at 472 horsepower, with what Lexus describes as refinements and a specially assembled engine. Its rear differential is adjusted by hand to tune backlash for sharper response on and off the throttle. Lexus quoted an estimated 0-60 mph time of 4.2 seconds and a 168 mph top speed through the eight-speed Sport Direct-Shift automatic.

The equipment list reads like the old options sheet with every box ticked. The car gets a carbon fiber roof, rocker panels, front spoiler and rear diffuser, an active rear wing, F-tuned Adaptive Variable Suspension, 19-inch BBS forged wheels on Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tires, and Brembo brakes with six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers painted red. Inside, it has black and red leather with Ultrasuede trim, Mark Levinson audio and a 10.3-inch touchscreen. Buyers could choose from four colors: Incognito, Radiant Red, Sonic Iridium and Ultra White.
Kelley Blue Book reported that the Final Edition starts at $94,000 delivered, which puts it far above the rest of the 2025 RC range. Those prices, all including the $1,175 delivery fee, ran as follows:
| 2025 Lexus RC model | Price with delivery |
|---|---|
| RC 300 | $46,445 |
| RC 300 AWD | $49,135 |
| RC 350 | $49,375 |
| RC 300 F Sport | $51,065 |
| RC 350 AWD | $51,540 |
| RC 300 AWD F Sport | $53,355 |
| RC 350 F Sport | $53,995 |
| RC 350 AWD F Sport | $55,720 |
| RC F Final Edition | $94,000 |

Neither Lexus Enthusiast nor KBB gave a production total for the American Final Edition, and Lexus didn’t announce one. Japan, by contrast, capped its RC F Final Edition at 200 cars, Motor1 reported. Motor1 also said a direct RC replacement looked unlikely, though Lexus is expected to build a new performance coupe.
The Toyota Report Take
A $94,000 sticker is a lot for a decade-old platform, and Lexus clearly priced the Final Edition for collectors rather than for buyers comparing it with newer German coupes. Still, a naturally aspirated V8 with a hand-adjusted differential and a numbered badge is the right way to end the RC F, and in a market that has mostly moved to turbocharged sixes, these cars should hold their value better than most.
