Lexus has dropped the pricing details on its new RC model, which will go on sale within the next couple of months.

When the new model goes on sale, the rear-wheel-drive RC 350 will start at $43,715 while the all-wheel-drive model will start at $45,950. The high-performance V8 Lexus RC F, which is only available as a rear-wheel-drive model, will start at $63,225.

The 2015 Lexus RC 350 is powered by a 3.5 liter V6 engine making 306-hp and 277 lb-ft of torque. The 2015 Lexus RC F is powered by a F-tuned 5.0-liter V8 making 467-hp and is backed up by a close-ratio 8-speed Sports Program Direct Shift transmission and available Torque Vectoring Differential.

“The luxury-sport coupe category is about to get a lot hotter,” Lexus said in a statement. “The 2015 Lexus RC 350 arrives this fall, melding audacious design and high performance like no Lexus before. Engineered as a stand-alone model, rather than as a two-door derivative of a sedan, the RC delivers all the performance, individuality, and unique luxury and technology that its body promises. Lexus expects the RC to attract the next generation of luxury buyers and those new to the brand.”

Available packages on the RC 350 include the following:

  • F Sport Package ($5,085 rear-wheel drive/$4,680 all-wheel drive): Adaptive suspension, rear-wheel steering (rear-wheel drive only), 19-inch wheels, LED headlights, Lexus LFA-inspired gauges, heated/ventilated seats
