If you compare the 100k 500h, to the 60k 350C, I think the 350 wins every time. Hard top convertible, same suspension, fast as lighting, no speed governor, better audio sound, no front facade, same mpg without the hybrid. It's a no brainer. Mines garaged, and has only 76k miles. 11 year old car!

    I own an LC500h. Its a real head turner and the best interior quality of any car up to $300k. However, after a year, I wish I had bought the V8 because of the incredible sound it makes. The 500h is as fast as most people will ever need in normal driving. Not many cars that can beat me off the line, but its not as fast as most cars in this price range. The trade off is the reliability, the looks and quality of engineering. One of the things that most people don't know is that these cars have self-healing paint. Lexus really brings it to the table on these cars with their paint jobs.

    I've had one for two years (the V8 version). It is a wonderful car to drive but far and away the best part is when you first start the engine. There's a great podcast by Malcolm Gladwell discussing the genesis and development of the LC500. The engine sound alone they spent 5 years perfecting. The interior is second to none compared to any other car I have ever owned. I also love that I rarely see others LC500s on the road. I have 20K miles on it now and I have not had a single issue. Mechanically perfect. Interestingly, I get about 24.4 mpg highway and 21.7 combined in economy mode. Huge tank, so about 430 mile range. The infotainment system is wonky, but you get used to it. Once you pair your phone (which didn't take me 15 minutes) you never have to worry about that again. The Mark Levinson system sounds great (also part of the podcast and the effort spent to perfect the sound system). In short, I love it; my wife loves it; and I will likely keep it forever. The one knock I have heard in is that in most evaluations the only car in its class that is "better" is the 911--I can live with that. Plus, the 911 drives completely different. That's a sports car. This is a sporty car.

With some time for development it can turn out to be extremely well designed. It may turn out so well that it will be adopted by most future cars.
