Depends on fabric, but very few rain jackets are BIFL, even from them. Most rain jackets use a DWR coating on top of 2-3 layers to achieve their water resistance and some element of breathability, which will inevitably wear out, leading to the jacket wetting out in sustained rain. You can mitigate this with gentle handling and using a DWR treatment wash on occasion, but it is an inherent fault with multilayer fabrics. If you want actual, true water protection, a single layer fabric like this one will do it. It's ugly though.
What about the new Frogg Toggs Xtreme Lite instead of the Ultra-Lite 2? Unless that is what you're referring to. Can be found for $35 on Amazon. It's a bit heavier than the Ultra-Lite 2, should be more durable and has a better fit. I just bought the last one in blue\large that Amazon sold itself, but others seem to have it for same price.
