    Pretty good review. I looked for a new car that would excite me for over three years with price being (almost) no factor. Nothing at all came close until one day, parked in front of a local restaurant, I saw this (exact) car in InfraRed with Toasted Caramel. My knees buckled. Finally!! This is what I was looking for. It's simply a exquisite machine. Inside and out it has everything that gets my heart pumping. So, I bought one. Living in California and knowing at my age that having a rear wing, four wheel steering and all the race car stuff wasn't practical. I simply wanted a very nice car to drive. When you live in the S.F. Bay Area and own a car with super large wheels and painted on tires, it's only a matter of minutes until you hit a pothole and trash one or more wheels. I opted for the 20" wheels, carbon fiber roof, LSD, Alcantera seats and quite a few other options that made sense for me. After a year, knock on wood, my wheels are still in perfect shape. The car is a joy to own and drive. The one thing I am not crazy about are the organic brake pads which are very dirty and dusty. The Enform infotainment system is super once you learn it and become familiar with the VOICE COMMAND feature. Lexus also can install Apple Car Play on the "older" LC's (2018) for $200 which I have done already. Honestly, the car is underpriced. Once you drive it, you will agree. Everything is first class AND you get the comfortable feeling that it is not a German car and therefore won't cost you half your brokerage account to keep it on the road. These are very reliable cars and the parts are well made, not total junk like many other makes. When you see an LC500 in person, you just might agree with me...there is nothing else that even comes close.

      Compared with any other Lexus of the last 20 years. Lexus has cut production twice for the LC.
      Buyers can have a used LC for 60k with less than 15000 miles.

    The LC 500 is undeniably one of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen. I own a 2021 LC500 red convertible, and even when I’m not driving it, I find joy in just admiring it parked in the garage. While there may be faster or more expensive cars out there, I challenge anyone to find one more beautiful. I’ve even named mine Halle Berry, since having the real Halle Berry isn’t an option!

    Just picked up my LC500 last week. Didn't like it as much from videos and pics ,but man until I saw it in person, test drove right away , done deal!
    Few things need to be mentioned:
    1 passenger side carbon fiber scuff plate is scratch magnet.
    2 brake dust and noise(there is a TSB from manufacture).
    3 rear seats are just for insurance purpose.
    4 lack of physical buttons for heated/vent seats and heated steering wheel, but once you pick up how to use the system or voice control ,problem solved.
    Happy with my decision, not too many free coffees from stealerships .

    The LCF is supposed to be the next generation of the Fs with much more power. They are currently working on a 4.0 Twin Turbo V8 that should compete with the AMG cars and from the spy shots I've seen on the LCF is has the quad staggered tips exposed like you were wishing this car had.

    I kind of see this as like an ultra luxurious Mustang GT. You got the high revving 5.0L V8 making similar power. The exhaust sounds similar. They're RWD. And the 10 Speed transmission.

    Toyota Did An Excellent Job On The Design & Styling, Except I Don't Like Those Two Controls Up Next To The Dash That Control The Performance On One Side & The Snow On The Other. Very Tacky In My Opinion. I Think Another Partnering With The Germans Like Was Done On The Supra Would Have Given The LC 500 The Performance Under The Hood That It Deserves!

      Well. People want a car that's easy to tune. A supra with a v8 wouldn't be right since most of the market wanted it straight six. Also people look at these for performance and using anything Lexus wasn't going to fit that.

    I agree with you about the styling, quality, and attention to detail on this car. Truly first-rate. 2 points that I have struggled with are the missing features and tech at this price point. Lexus coupes, at any given price point, always seem to be a step behind in the features department (such as massaging seats, cooled, not ventilated seats, power trunk, etc). Many will not care about these features, but I do at this price point. I haven't completely eliminated it from consideration because it does many things well. I would rather Lexus raise the price 5K to address some of the issues.

  • @jasoncampbell7765

    Beautiful car on the outside. Interior quality is what you should expect in this high end price range. I think all of that brown leather needs a zonk. Just too much brown for me. Ridiculous amount of weight on this car granted it has a V8 and all of that soft interior goodness. You just can't beat the Toyota/Lexus reliability!!! Great review!
