These special Lexus models will be rare

Did you know that Lexus has been making "F" cars for ten years?

According to Lexus, this F badge signifies that the vehicle has "the purest expression of Lexus performance." Of course, whatever.

They're so happy that at this year's Chicago Auto Show, the Japanese luxury brand rolled out not one, but two anniversary rides: the 2018 Lexus GS F and RC F 10th Anniversary.

Starting from the outside, both cars come in a matte finish.

Polished black 19-inch multiplex wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires are standardized and contrast well with the dark gray paint job.

Deep Blue Something

On the inside, this theme continues with blue carbon fiber trim for the panels and dash with blue leather accents.

Blue, blue, blue.

The Lexus GS F and RC F 10th Anniversary will feature blue interiors.

Power and performance

Powertrain-wise, both the coupe and sedan run the same 467-horsepower 5.0-liter V8, but there are differences and tweaks here and there.

Like I said, the GS F sedan shares the same mill and also runs the same eight-speed automatic as the power.

Pricing and Availability

Finally, an almost obligatory engraved nameplate boasts about the limited edition of the car.

Lexus says there will be extra packages for them, but cryptic notes they will "need". What on earth that means, I don't know.
