Lexus’ powertrain warranty covers the RC F 3 years longer than Lamborghini covers the Temerario. Any repair needed on the engine, transmission, axles, joints or driveshafts is fully covered for 6 years or 70,000 miles. Coverage on the Temerario ends after only 3 years.

There are over 6 times as many Lexus dealers as there are Lamborghini dealers, which makes it much easier should you ever need service under the RC F’s warranty.

The Temerario doesn’t offer a remote starting system.

The RC F’s standard power windows have a locking feature to keep children from operating them, but the driver can still raise and lower both of them with the lock engaged. Lamborghini does not offer a locking feature on the Temerario’s standard power windows.
