- Here's everything you need to know about the 2025 Lexus LC 500. I still recommend the V8 Coupe with the Dynamic Handling Package & Mark Levinson Audio. See my Porsche GT4 RS Review: • Porsche Cayman GT4 RS ...

Got mine 2018 model in 2020 beginning of covid for 80k Canadian. Only car i paid cash for. Keeping this car for life. Nothing built like it. You were the first one to convince me to get one when you had one. Thank you.
Massive congrats my friend happy to hear that you love and appreciate this car as much as me
That was a steal of a deal that you got.
Haha, Kevin my good friend. Respect and congratulations 100k 🎉. Hope you are well, and catch up soon!👍 By the way, certain cars only look good in certain colours. But this Lexus in the video looks good in any colour. 💯
Thank you so much for your kind words brother! And I agree, this car does look sharp in just about every color! Stay blessed.
Kevin still has his sense of humour. You can hear him laughing subtly! Lol 8:30
😂
Congrats on hitting 100k subscribers! I’ve been following your reviews for years, and I have to say, you inspired me to buy an LC500 in 2020-so, big thanks for that! It’s a beautiful car and checks all the boxes I wanted in a GT. Keep up the awesome work, my friend!
@@prakbis thanks so much! And I’m honored to hear my content helped in your purchasing decision, big congrats on the LC I’m glad you appreciate the car as much as I do! Stay blessed my friend
Thanks Mr Lexus!
Yes sir!
Probably much better than most other vehicles in its class.
It's better in ways most wouldn't really think about or initially appreciate
The only thing i feel holding the LC back is the 10spd. If it had a fast shifting ZF 8 spd, I think it would be perfect. The other issue or not, is that there is bmw 8 series with a V8 TT and Mercedes AMG.
@@touayaaj84I have an X3 M40 with the ZF 8 and while I think it’s an all around better transmission, but the 10speed does shift faster. The NA V8 sounds light years better than turbos by bmw and merc.
@@alan_is_insane2343 10spd does not shift faster than the zf. Also, with BMW transmission, XHP makes a software to custom tune the zf. I run xhp on my Supra.
@@touayaaj84haha. You’re right. It’s 80 milliseconds faster. 😂 I own both and the Lexus does feels faster probably due to the way better sounding V8. B58 is in my m40 is an amazing motor though. The PDK on my 911 gts crushes both by a large margin.
I also prefer the touch pad and subdued screen with the classic analog clock. The 2024 touchscreen literally looks like an afterthought. There are tons of gently used C8s available and they're relatively cheap considering.
a couple of points. 1. almost no one is considering a corvette vs an LC500. more likely the 911 or BMW .
2. who in their right mind would want the hybrid...the engine/exhaust note are what closed the deal for me. I have had mine for 2 years now and it is my favorite car that I have owned. 3. Who is getting 10% off of an new LC??? Finally awesome to give Christ a shout out in the car video!!!
Idk my friend that Vette is doing the same job as this Lexus and the rest while coming in under 100k as a convertible and all the features one would want 911 is way overpriced now like 150k well equipped for a BASE Carrera 😂 crazy stuff Def try to get 10% off if you can on these from a motivated dealership will have to be an instock unit that's been sitting for awhile
Would you consider doing an LC500 buyers guide comparing each model year? Awesome videos man.
Great content, love how you gave other options and the pros and cons , awesome !!
Glad you like them!
Great content. I have the Acura integra type S and so far super happy (maintenance codt, reliability, driving engagement, etc) however i love the lc500 for exactly the reasons you mentioned here and i am back and forth if i should trade for the 24/25 LC500....thoughts?
@@pedrot1152 I would only do it if you can sell your Type S for a good amount of money and not lose much otherwise, I’d say keep the Type S that’s a very special car and you did say you’re happy with it. Maybe just Test Drive an LC in the meantime so you know what it’s about
How does this compare to a Mercedes Porsche or Aston Martin
I usually just tell people to buy cars from those brands since I know nobody will understand or appreciate this. You buy this after your done playing with those other brands and end up bored of them.
still people buy it 👍, thanks Kevin.
@2:34 - 2:41 well said brother...very well said 💯
Yes sir
any news on if there is going to be an inspiration edition model?
Do you see yourself owning one again long term?
Yea it's still a top tier car I genuinely wouldn't mind owning another one need to spend significantly more money to do better than the LC out on the street
@@MeynMotorGroup🤝😎
2:20, hole in their soul more like it.
Consumerism run amock.
Great vid sir!
I realized it really ran amock with those Stanley Tumblers 😅😂
Do you know when it will show up on dealer lots?
2:35 greatest truth ever
Yep he certainly was a wise man it was a pleasure chatting with him shared nothing but facts with me
Last model year for Lexus LC 500 along with the 2UR-GSE, my guess. Because in 2026 the new LFR is going to be released which will replace the RC F GT3 car ensuring the death of Lexus's last V8.
picked up a 2018 fully optioned clean title red LC for $47K last year and its amazing and nothing else on the road like it. also for the price I couldn't pass it up
That's a crazy price massive congrats my friend!
Clean title? If so, it must have a ton of miles.
@@alan_is_insane2343 miles is probably crazy probably 100k+ wish he would have shared that as well
@@MeynMotorGroup100%. Definitely reconstructed title or over 100k miles
@@alan_is_insane2343 lol yea but God Bless him tho still an epic purchase
I was really hoping for the transmission cooler as a option like the Japan market gets. Don't understand why they wouldn't add that for the US market.
Will the 2025s have V8s?
Maybe because I’m not wealthy but I can never fathom paying over $1000 a month to drive a vehicle
I mean if you don't like cars or care about driving then sure don't do it. But those of us who love cars and driving will do what we can to get these experiences. Shockingly, I've noticed majority of my channel is filled with anti-car people 😂
@@MeynMotorGroup I’m not an anti car guy my username is Toyota for life. I just feel like that money could go into modifying the vehicle instead of paying to drive it just my opinion. Good video
you let yours go? What did you get instead?
I got a house instead
@@MeynMotorGroup congratulations!! hell I thought you already had a house because you are so smart and on top of all your numbers. soon enough will be whatever you want in the driveway
@@jmack972 lol nah I was living with my parents when I bought that LC so it was really doable at the time when combined with good lease deals now... not so much most car deals are awful aside from evs
Dang... so the LC is basically an old man's car. 😢 😂
I still like the Vette and never truly considered the 911. As you stated you have to go wayyy up the ladder to get the features. I would get the Z06 if I was in the maket for another coupe. Truthfully, I would get a pickup to replace the LC.
Yo my bro 🤝😎👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks bro hope you enjoyed your Saturday!
@@MeynMotorGroup No problem my bro and Thanx I did I hope you did as well. 🤝😎
It needs more of a powertrain, 440hp isnt enough for a car that big and expensive.
RIP LC-F .. you never got to see the light .
Also, for the life of me, I cannot understand why there is no F sport trim for the LC … Every other lexus gets the F sport trim even models that don’t need it like the LX. But their sport coupe doesn’t get it … Lexus is completely, dragging their feet with the LC
Yep an LC F sport is all I really wanted to see waited years for it but never came and now I now I know it never will never exist. Don't blame them as they only sell like 100 of these a month.
Who's also waiting for 2025 Lexus IS 500 F Sport?
About to drop an IS vid today with 2025 updates
@@MeynMotorGroup flare yellow and power folding mirrors😂
@Dota2TVLivestream Flare Yellow is a nod to the 25th Anniversary of IS in North America
Yeah Lexus won't be giving incentives on this bad boy, this is a car you get later in life when you got extra cash to throw away and want a reliable luxury
They were giving these things away pre pandemic that's how I got one 😂
👊🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Yeah, great if you don't care about speed… the German can do both speed and cornering. 😂
@@jpnphom5470 once you’re done playing with those generic euro cars and understand how boring they are you’ll then be able to understand and appreciate this. Until then, keep experimenting.
Didn’t you own an lc500
yep
Lexus ls better than Toyota
1. LC 500 better than GR 86
2. LM 350 is better than Toyota Alphard
3. Lexus GX 550 is better than Toyota Land Cruiser
As it should be!
It better not be electric.
Ugh no AWD
They probably want to keep weight and complexity down. These are already like 4300 lbs as a coupe
