Lexus RC F GT500 '16

The Lexus RC F GT500 '16 is a race car produced by Lexus. It appears in Gran Turismo Sport (as part of Update 1.15) and Gran Turismo 7.
It appears to be the #36, driven by Nick Cassidy and Daisuke Itō, who achieved a 5th place finish in the GT500 Driver's Championship of the 2016 Super GT season. This is reflected by the name it had in GT Sport, Lexus au TOM'S RC F '16.
==In-game description==
=== Car Index (GT7) ===
The machine that fought to win the GT500 Class for Toyota / Lexus in the 2014 to 2016 seasons of the Super GT Series is the Lexus RC F, based on the production car which started sales in October 2014.
Due to new regulations from 2014, the weight and rigidity of the monocoque and its center of gravity was matched to that of DTM cars. The dampers, brakes, and rear wing were all made common with the DTM. And because the top half of the body with the RC F silhouette could not be modified in design due to these regulations, downforce is gained by reworking the bottom half. The power unit is a turbocharged 2 liter inline 4 with direct injection; the RI4AG engine. This unit is shared with the Super Formula, and tuned for use in the Super GT.
The 2016 model was the final version of this car. Because of increased constraints of the regulations limiting the fuel restrictor flow from 100 kg/h to 95 kg/h, improvements were made to create more power with less fuel, along with various other improvements to the car.
The au TOM'S RC F carrying the ace car number 36 of the Lexus Team Tom's became 2nd in round 6 and 3rd in round 3, ending in the series in 5th overall out of 15 cars.
===Brand Central (GT7)===
This Lexus au TOM'S RC F won the GT500 class of the Super GT Series in 2016. It was powered by a race-tuned 2.0-liter inline-4 engine. This year marked the RC F's final year in the race series. The LC 500 flagship luxury coupé replaced the RC F as Lexus' GT500 race car.

This Lexus RC F competes in Japan's top racing category, Super GT. It made its debut in...2014, I think.Typo in-game with "it" written instead of "its". This one is the 2016 spec. I have fond memories of seeing it in action! It lost the first four races to the Nissan GT-R, but then made a stunning comeback after changing the engine! By the end of the season, it had managed to claw its way up to fifth place in the rankings. As it happens, that season's championship was won by another RC F, number 39!

==Trivia==
*In Livery Editor, if the prompt to remove the default livery is answered, the rear Tom's badge is also removed.
**A similar behavior occurs with the SC430 GT500's rear Tom's badge and the R92CP's front Nissan badge.
*In GT7, GT Auto offers a high-downforce wing (used for races at the Fuji International Speedway), much like for the other 2016 GT500 cars.
