This guy has by far and above the most reliable car enthusiast collection ever.
👍 for sure.. 'yota for life! 🤣
Lmao! Yup!
Definitely 👍
I know, he can actually daily drive them and not worry about them breaking 😅
i shipped over a toyota aristo from japan and been driving it for 3 years never had a single problem with the engine or transmission
On top of all that his hat matches his shoestrings. This man has it all.
LMFAO, I didn't even realize that. 😂
WTF?! Good catch! LMAO, so true!
Brooo hahaha
Lmao I'm 17 min in noticing that and then i see your comment 😂 He gotta match the shorts tho
Levels to this
Insane collection. Every lexus fan dream line up. Selling a corvette for an LC 500 is crazy. I love that decision
For sure that this is def every Toyota/Lexus fans' dream lineup - with the exception of the LFA. I was stunned that he went from LC to C8, then a MONTH LATER back to LC! Kinda shows you how spec sheet numbers aren't always everything. The LC delivers on a different level, even though they're both different types of cars: sports vs. GT car.
An LC 500 turns my head way more than a C8 now that we've all seen C8s for a couple years.
I would add a GX460...and that's it.
@@brianpalay3760nah….a well done c8 still breaks my neck…they look plain stock but very slight mods have them looking crazy
I would never trade my corvette for a lc 500 but I can understand why someone would
As an owner of a ISF, RCF and GSF I can tell you that each car is unique in its own way. By far my ISF was the fastest of the three. After owning my ISF for 5 year, for the lack of better term a teenager (I’m 40 years old). Because the ISF shares the same body as the rest of the 2is family, I kind of felt childish when driving it. Cause in point, my oldest daughter has a 2is IS350. Now when it comes to the RCF, let me tell you it looks really good IMO but that sucker drives like a damn boat. It’s slow and not very agile out of the factory. But once I changed out the suspension, added some bolt on, it really changed the dynamic of the car. It turned it into a pretty solid platform for the track IMO. Again not as fast as my FBO ISF. Now my GSF IMO is the best of all 3. You get the luxury and the power of the 2UR. I feel it’s more of a classier Vehicle. Honestly I think my modded GSF handles better than the RCF and ISF. We use it as our family car when we take trips within 300 miles. I’m the tallest (5’9”) in my family of 5 so the GSF has plenty of room to fit us. I guess to sum it up, depending on what I’m using the car for sways my decision on what I’m picking to drive. If I feel like taking some faster spirited drives I chose the ISF. If I plan on taking some curves and have some fun on my local s turn roads I’m driving the RCF. If I’m chilling with the fam bam or going out to dinner with the wifey I’m taking the GSF. Other than the known issues with the 2UR, these things are bullet proof. All of them are light years behind in tech and somewhat underpowered. But, I love them all in their individual ways.
thanks for your input! i really like these F cars and lexus in general (own a 2015 RX350 and the GSF has been the most enticing to me. glad to hear you enjoy it and it seems the best out of the three for general use! if you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the GSF?
Thanks for your thorough feedback! You and many others keep saying that the ISF is amongst the top F cars. Seems like I need to get my hand on one of those and do a review. But I also see how you prefer the GS-F. Let's not forget that the RC-F chassis is a Frankenstein of 3 different Lexus cars (if I'm not wrong), therefore, it will be a little heavier than needed.
The gsf has a bespoke chassis and the rcf is a combo of two different ones. Awesome that you could actually feel the difference.
Your ISF ... was faster than your RC-F ? What year were they ?
What suspension did you put on your GSF?
What a stunning collection. Beautiful.
I think the LC is amongst the most beautiful cars ever conceived.
In essence the owner seems to be highlighting; beauty, reliability and practicality. Great attributes.
I'm stoked that his favourate amongst the three is the LC.
Yes true in every aspect. He prefers the RC-F, but only because the LC gives him anxiety of where to park, and potentially having dings and/or scratches. If it weren't for that, LC all day. As he said, if he were to just keep one, he'd keep the LC and deal with its shortcomings. That car is just special.
I agree, never knew how special the LC was til I saw one in person. Absolutely stunning.
All 3 are beautiful. The LC is the nicest of the 3. My dream car is the Lexus LFA. The exhaust on the LFA is music to my ears.
@@salzero1 Got to agree re: the LFA exhaust sound. There isn't better.
He has big 3. He’s living the dream!!! ❤🔥🔥🔥
Tell me about it! Can't say I'm jealous - I'm just a happy man to have seen it in person and interview him!
Not much of a yellow fan but that yellow LC looks fire!
Yeah - agreed!
He’s a smart practical man. Cars that actually last a long time. Have fun without much problems.
Soooo true!
Exactly
Perfect. Could not agree more on the analysis. Having driven all of them and owning an RCF CF/TVD for 7+ years, you hit the nail right on the head. Read my mind. They all have their advantages. As a legacy M4 competitor, RCF is the sharpest track weapon there that is the smallest, stiffest and best power to weight while LC500 is the most luxurious, bespoke with the most sense of occasion. GSF is like the RCF except it is bigger, more practical, more spacious, compliant for the streets while having the same engine and a lot of the same capabilities.
Yes - absolutely true. The man has a great lineup of 2UR -GSE vehicles for every occasion. And he does track the RC-F quite regularly, so cool! LEt's not forget he's got another vehicle to toss around on the track too! Did the review of that one - which you can check out in the link below:
ua-cam.com/video/68wJlXPKs0Q/v-deo.htmlsi=jBXH7Z3z9RDAhJUv
@@RichWithCars Thank you. Great job on such a comprehensive video. I get asked that question around my decision to go with the RCF and I have to explain it, Now, I can just point them to your video as this video says everything I normally tell. It will help a lot of people understand the difference. Cool to see he has a GR Corolla as well to take to the track. Cheers!
I've had all 3 and completely agree with his analysis. I'd rate the rc slightly higher, it's not as comfortable or sexy as the lc but it's more fun to drive
Glad you agree with the owner. Unfortunately I don't have enough time behind the wheel of the RC-F to make that observation
Would you consider the RC as a possible daily? I have an ES sedan but never have more than 1 passenger. I'd like to have LC eventually, but was considering the RC in the meantime.
Lucky man to own all three! Also great to hear his perspective.
Yes - he's got so many, he's gotta park at least one on the grass! That's an awesome 2UR-GSE problem to have!
Awesome video! Absolutely love all three of these cars, and the owner's insights were great to hear.
I was curious as well! That's why I decided to do a video on it!
Excellent video. Excellent takes. Massive props to this dude for having all 3 of these! I've been looking at getting a GSF!
Go for it! The GSF is an amazing all-arounder and does everything well 😊
Thanks! If you're a Lexus fan, then this man is living the dream!
I watch a lot of reviews and interviews and this has been one of the best! Love these cars and these dudes seem great 👍 awesome content! ❤
Thank you for the compliments! Rich is super fun to work with and did an awesome job with the video 😊
Thanks man! Likewise!
Thanks so much! Tbh, I really enjoyed myself and spending time with Joseph getting his perspective
This is awesome - dream setup for sure. I wish I could drive a GS F. I own an IS 500 and have driven the LC 500 and the RC F. I thought the LC 500 felt great on track (at the Lexus Performance Driving School) considering its weight. It felt reasonably agile - somewhat numb, but as you said, super controllable. I had a little tail-out moment that was easy to react to, thankfully. Started getting a little too comfortable, I guess. 😅 But as for the RC F, I was fortunate enough to get a nice lengthy test-drive at a dealership, and it was a blast. It feels just a little more connected than my IS 500 does, which makes sense, and I like the gauges and "F" theater about it. The seats are also phenomenal and held me in the best of the three - I'd put the LC's seats above the IS 500's, but the IS's are certainly not bad either - way better than what my wife's 330i M Sport had... Anyway, I don't plan on tracking the IS 500, just enjoying it on some back roads, so I don't know that I need a GS F. Plus, while GS Fs out there are all used now, I was able to afford to pick up a brand-new IS 500 with a warranty, which, to me, outweighed the better brakes and cooling. I can always upgrade things later anyway, but I doubt I will. All three seem great - honestly, if I won the lottery, I have to admit I'd be thinking really hard about getting an LC. I just loved the way it felt and the way it sounded, not to mention its looks. I don't mind that it is slightly heavier than the others - I'd probably forget about that on a daily basis. Anyway, super cool to see the perspective - what the owner said makes sense in regards to each car having its uses - RC F = track car, GS F = family sedan, LC = weekend cruiser - that's exactly what I would do!
Yes - that's exactly why I wanted to interview him. I know a little about the other 2 (GS-F and RC-F), but not enough to consider myself a connoisseur. I am an owner of the LC500 - but the other 2 are quite different in feel. So what better person to ask than an owner of all 3 simultaneously.
the LC is just absolutely stunning on the road. ❤
Yes indeed!
What a beautiful line up. I’m wanting to have my own Lexus fleet. The new GX is next on my list along with a couple others lol
Omg! So curious to see the new GX in person! Congrats
This is awesome ! 🔥🔥🔥
👍thanks
Too cool! What a beautiful Lexus collection!
Thank you!
Agreed!
Excellent content, thank you .
Thanks!
That was fantastic!
Yes it was!
Respect for him knowing what he wants. The c8 is special and although it’s the better car on paper it just didn’t fit what he was looking for. Some would call him crazy but I respect it
Full respect! I agree.
He’s just missing the dad from all 3, the ISF 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah I couldn't disagree!
Also the isf is missing. Wanna go that deep he’s missing two. But this the best collection I’ve seen yet! ❤
Replaced the LCA bushings with FIGGS and it significantly improved the way my RCF handled. Steering is crisp and braking feels more solid. Strangely it made the car feel lighter. It is a simple upgrade which I did myself. Ride comfort is still excellent. Highly recommend.
Thanks for your input! I think another UA-camr @huangbros did the same and spoke very highly of the mod. Definitely a must try, especially if you track your car
Very cool guy! And awesome collection. Love my RCF
Lucky man to own all 3 simultaneously. Hope you get to enjoy your RC-F
Now this guy deserves to own an LFA.
Yes - and me too!
The GS is the most underrated Lexus in general
Yup agreed - and amongst the rarest too!
Great Content..Nice job..
Appreciate it! 🙏
The owner forgot to mention the biggest thing to own a Lexus is it holds it’s value extremely well compare to BMW and Mercedes’ Benz.
True - but that is primarily due to its reliability and cost of ownership.
Absolutely awesome
Gracias!👍
Wow… literally my dream to have all 3 cars too but I would go with the RCF first!!
Yup, definitely living the Lexus fan's dream!
@@RichWithCars Only thing missing THE LFA… at that point I would die happy hahah
@@justindagoat9900 yep but imagine also having the IS500 or ISF with it too sheesh every lexus fanatics dream
Great topic video Rich! Wow these cars are beautiful! But the LC… like the owner said, whatever faults it may have… I could live with it, the LC is just a pure Unicorn 🦄
Thanks! I couldn't let up an opportunity to interview the man that owns all 3 simultaneously! Definitely a topic that many Toyota and Lexus fans (like myself) would appreciate. 👍
I drive a GS350 and love to have a GS-F. And they really hold their value.
Those GS-F's hold their value sooooo well! Most likely reason (aside from the reliability) is due to its rarity.
@@RichWithCars I’m going to be in the market for a new car in the next six months and will probably buy an IS500, but it is really tempting to find a low mileage GS-F instead. I have yet to find a 2020 for under 70K and worse, finding a Lexus Certified example. I have time, but finding one is going to be tough.
@@davidpavlich8939It not going to be easy to find one because people know they’re rare now.
I want the rarest race on the planet. An LF-A, GS-F, IS-F, IS500, RCF, LC500, SC300, VS Toyota Supra, gr86, mr-2, celica. And see what car completes the circuit and trials the best!?
I want that as well! If enough people help.me out to source all those cars, I'll go to wherever that is to film it!
Wow thats a nice 2UR collection. I got an IS 500, not up there with LC and GS F but I love my IS, the 2UR GSE is just fantastic.
It is....and I still need to get a hold of an IS500 to review....very curious about it
The Trifecta. So good!
Couldn't agree any more
This is F ing cool, my dream garage. Only thing missing is LFA 😊
Ohhh man, LFA - the ultimate 🦄
@RichWithCars Lol, 😄The unicorn Emoji was definitely unexpected
This video was...special!
Thanks! 🙏
I SAW THIS GUYS CARS IN CYPRESS WHILE DOING UPS! Wild
That's awesome!
Dream garage. Personally, the GSF is my favourite Lexus. I'd sell a kidney to have this lineup.
Lmao! Not sure if I'd go that far!
Aahhhh and his name is Joseph….JOE’S UNITE!! THERES STILL HOPE TO AFFORD ALL 3 😭😭😭
👍
I strongly believe that, if you don't have kids, the only car you need is the LC500.
For sure! The back seats have plenty of space for a Costco run 😊
Even with the kids - the LC500 can have one kid uncomfortably lounge in the back!
Joe is so humble! I love it 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Just lucky to be able to drive some fun cars on some great roads/tracks with amazing friends 😊
He is - and very knowledgeable...
Way to go on your Rc! Looks amazing!
Yes agreed. He's having fun with it, though not everyone's cup of tea. I like it!
💪💪living it up
👍
The RCF is my dream car. I’m currently riding in a 2015 is250 F Sport but it’s just something about that RCF that catches my full attention and I will have one.
Yup, the RCF is definitely an awesome sports coupe. Too bad it won't be around for much longer!
Beautiful RCF my fav out of your pack!!! And overall 2URs family. You have a 2UR for literally every occasion!
Soooo true! Amazing lineup! You have a very special 2UR yourself! Definitely gotta see it in person some day!
@@RichWithCars always down to support lets set it up 🤙🏽 🙌🏽
Let's head out to the track and do an RCF comparison video there 😁
@@coralchopper I'll be there to film!
@@coralchopper road course would sick or a top speed course 👌🏽lets discuss some options!
these 2 guys really got beautiful LC's
Thanks 👍
Thanks for the comparison. Like Joseph, I love my LC. That being said, I would like to get a GSF for when the family comes to visit. I was thinking about getting rid of the LC for a GSF, but seeing this, I would rather just keep the LC and just add a GSF for the next garage stall instead of replacing it. The lightbulb is lit.... Thanks Rich and Joseph.
the more the merrier 😋
Yeah, if you can, keep the LC. Then work towards getting the GS-F, or even test out the IS500.
Heck yeah, I’m a firm believer in having a family car and having multiple toys for yourself 😈
This guy has the holy Lexus grail.
Completely agree - the 🍒 on top would be an LFA
I love my RCF!!! Other drivers slow down, follow behind me...and ask me about it all the time!!! Great car.
Nice! The RC-F is definitely a rarer car than an M4 or M3. Not surprised you get that! Enjoy!
Damn that inspiration spec is bananas 🍌
I m waiting for this economy to bottom so I can go grab my LC. I seen a blue inspiration around here. Bonkers…
Beautiful neighborhood. Looks like it’s Orlando area.
It is in the Orlando area. And yes - that IS LC500 in Flare yellow is drop dead gorgeous, especially the interior!👍
@@RichWithCars when you coming down to the Miami area. I besn told you I wanna see your car in person!
I was in Cape Coral for months but now k m in Parkland, FL
I’m a sedan type of guy. I absolutely love the GS-F!!
I really enjoyed the GS-F. Also, it's a very rare vehicle!
Coming from an ISF to RCF the 2URGSE is tried and true. My ISF was 180k before trading it in for the RCF
I definitely believe that. I know some IS-F owners with 220K+ miles on the odometer, and still running strong (of course with the proper maintenance).
There’s a guy on the F Car group on Facebook who has over 400k on his ISF
@@marsarmory6236 damn ... I won't keep anything that long unless I rebuild the engine and all that myself lol
if you dont mind me asking, how much were you able to see isf for with 180k miles?
Mans got great taste in cars
Yup!
Life goals
👍
That’s funny to hear because I also have a blue LC 500 and my most previous car was a Q 60 red sport. I guess it’s a logical upgrade.
Yeah, big upgrade, imo from a Q50S or Q60S....
I love the LC500 and test drove one and I would actually own one now if I was not spoiled by my convertible hardtop SC430 Peeble Beach Edition. I wish the LC500 was a hardtop convertible. However, I have a 911 Turbo that is lighter than the LC500 but the LC500 is just beautiful.
911 Turbo is the ultimate daily supercar! Enjoy it!
Very nice lineup! Do you know where he got the front spolier/side skirts?
I believe the kit is Maxton Design. You can check their website below:

I love this video this guy is my hero I would totally buy all of them have had several Lexus’s my fav car is Toyota since cars are my toys I solute this Lexus fan
appreciate the kind words! ❤
I'm a big fan of him as well for going all out on the F cars from Lexus. Totally awesome experience!
I have the 23 IS500 love it
Awesome!
All of these cars are perfect
Yup!
Is there a favorite place to purchase performance parts for these models? Excellent video, BTW.
Absolutely! @modinjapan

@@RichWithCars Cool! Thanks!!!👍
My favorite cars. Beautiful
Appreciate it! 🙌🙌🙌
Love all three! Each one amazing in its own way
Dream lineup
Absolutely!
Lexus should release an LS-F convertible. 4-seater super monster cruiser.
That would be super cool, but the LS is already in a dying segment (flagship sedan). Adding the extra performance to it by making it an F and then a convertible on top of that - makes it a super niche product. Probably would sell double-digit numbers per year only - probably why AMG stopped making the S-Class coupe and convertibles.
Mate
I like this bloke already.
I m happy for him.
I too a Lexus enthusiast had all these except GSF F.
Also have is 250 and 350 F sport.
They're absolutely off this planet.
Love the V8 Rev limiter,
Who need fastest 0 to 100 when you have absolutely awesome V8 sound.
He's absolutely spot on as which one daily drive and one have to have.
Lc to drive alone,
RCF drive with Friends and GSF with Family.
I nearly ripped LC front spoiler off at parking kerb as it's so low.
Pain in the butt for daily drive but beautiful for cruiser along the coast beach.
😅😅😅
Definitely agree. My LC is dropped with a lip kit...already on my 2nd lip 😞
Same here can’t imagine taking a 4 door family sedan or suv to the track lol, family track day haha. But they are nice to have for long road trips or family events. In the city and daily I love my coupe and haul my buddies around in the back NP even though they are all 6ft+ hockey and football guys, It does help when they are also car enthusiasts and are easy going so shotgun wars are rare and they just drive there own car if they don’t feel like the back.
Yeah - it definitely helps when you have a group of friends who share the same interest in cars - they get it!
3 of my favorites lexus cars 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me too!
@@RichWithCarsme three? 😋
Yeah, not a knock against the C8, but absolutely very different cars.
Yes, very true! Just different cars
Nice ride how about ISF or IS500 for the next collection 😊
Yeah I'm sure he'd like one - space is the issue there if he were to add more cars to the collection!
Just got my dream collection that’s all🎉🎉
Thank you 🤟
Absolutely!
I love my is200t fsport, first Lexus and I’ll never let it go.
Can't blame you!
Dude, try the current gen IS350 FSport, it is quite good and not as expensive as the IS500.
is200t are known to have engine problem, those are one of the worst 4 cyl toyota engines when it comes to toyota reliability.
I feel like he’s missing one😂. Normally I wouldn’t word it like that, but I mean he has the rest so why not have em all? There all so dope!
The main issue is probably having the space for another toy in the mix....
I still want an ISF. Now with a family, 4drs with a Lexus performance V8 ticks all the boxes!
That or the GS-F or IS500
My favorite is the 2023 Lexus ES300H. I love the comfort over power. Best car I've ever had!!
Great. It's a different powertrain tho...
How can that possibly be anyone's favourite? Lmao
@@moeymcbacon8604 very possible for many my friend, take it for a spin and experience this great great vehicle masterpiece. Economical luxury!
The LC is a bonafide future classic
I would tend to agree. Only time will tell....
Wow i would love to own those 3 Lexus.enjoy
Me too!
Me too
I’m missing these 3 from my collection he’s missing the ISF 😏
The LC is such a beautiful car
The GSF probably would’ve been great as a wagon
IS-F for sure, and of course the big daddy of all - LFA. But the LFA is a unicorn. GS-F in wagon form would've been cool. Too bad they discontinued the GS-F (and the entire GS lineup)....
@@RichWithCars For real it’s a shame they discontinued them… I would like my next project to be a GS300.
I can only dream to get an LFA or get my hands on that glorious motor.
I want a GSF . I got a fsport and I love it. I will grind to get that F!
You won't regret it if you get it!
10sp on the LC sets it apart from the other F cars.
Yes, definitely little better transmission imo
I own a Lexus GS 450H f sport v6 and love it classy and fast when you want it to be in sports mode.
The GS lineup is amazing - with the GS-F being on the top....glad you enjoying it!
@@RichWithCars yes
LEXUS 👌😎👍 THE FIRST CLASS QUALITY
LEXUS LC ❤️🔥👍 THE FIRST CLASS EMOTIONS
Very true! Thank you!
I respect him. Not sure I can buy 3 very similar types of cars for myself. If I were to pick 3 in similar price ranges, I would get the LC500 for the exotic cruiser, then get Audi SQ7 for the family, and a 991 911 for the sports car.
Wife does drive an etron, but I consider it as more of an appliance than a car 😋
Your 3 choices aren't bad either tbh. But for any Lexus fan, this lineup is the dream.
The review we needed lol
For sure.
I wish they would develop an F model for the LC
Me too! Unfortunately, an LC-F is wishful thinking at this point. Someone from the UK on one of the LC Facebook groups had posted that LC production for the UK would end in 1st quarter of 2024.
Which car interior is shown at 5:30? The body shows Red like the RC F but it looks nothing like an RC F inside. There's suede everywhere and the seat adjustments are on the knee bolster. It's beautiful whatever it is!
Ohhh that's a 2020 Aston Martin Vantage. I was just comparing the quality, fit and finish of the LC to Aston Martin, since I've reviewed a few Astons already.
2:30 gr corolla 🥰4 out of 5 in one video 🤩
Yes! Good catch!
My gs350 fsport is plenty of car for most ppl. It's got a ton of torque bottom and top end. Can't imagine how much more the V8 is
The V8 2UR-GSE is absolutely amazing - with an awesome aural experience!
I would say stock form he is right, but upgrading the suspension on all the GSF will rise above the RCF, and maybe the LC due to the weight, however wider tires on the LC and lowering it I think LC will do better on track. Very nice collection
I actually have a lower stance with wider wheels and tires and I feel like the handling has improved slightly....
Cool comparo!
Thanks Mike 👍
Appreciate it! 🤟
I really miss my GSF. But i needed more room for my growing family and got a LX 600 Fsport Handling and while its a very nice and comfortable car it will never be as fast and smooth as my older GSF. Adaptive air suspension on LX is nice only if your going down a highway straight. Once the road starts getting bendy the car is just a boat to handle despite it being the fsport variant. My GSF does well both on highway and the curves.
LX600 F Sport ain't bad either! Of course it's not a performance vehicle like the GS-F, but you definitely get the same refinement, build quality and reliability.
True that! Your right it's very cushy.
Missing the ISF, nice collection cheers from OZ.
Oh for sure. The OG!
Cheers! 🍻
He has 3 (Quality) Japanese 5.0s pretty cool🤙🏾
Absolutely! 💯 %
what are your thoughts on the 04-07 Volvo S60R/V70R?
Wish I could tell you. Haven't had a 1st hand experience with it. Though I'd love to check it out!
Rich is rich
Wish that was my lineup - I ain't rich 😞 but my name is Rich 😁
I recently sold my rc350 and I’m getting ready to sell my 335i not sure what I want next but I’m really thinking the RCF will be next I just wish there was more aftermarket support like my 335i
If you go for an earlier (pre 2017) RC-F, there's plenty of mechanical mods - especially from RR Racing. If you're only looking for aesthetics, you can go for a new one, and there are plenty of aftermarket brands that support the platform: Aimgain, Artisan Spirits, Tom's, Novel Racing, Lexon, are among many others.
@@RichWithCars I would love to do an RR supercharger but I live in California so smog is an issue but we’ll see
I tracked the RCF and GSF. The GSF felt a lot better around the corners. Both cars were stock, but the GSF with the TVD was way tosable around the track despite the size.
Very cool 👍 which one was faster? And do you still track the GSF?
Really/?I wonder if it's a combination of the weight and the TVD....
Question: would you rather the rcf or a tiptronic 911 997.1 Porsche? as on second hand market roughly same price
Not a Porsche fan.. did have a Panamera 4S at one point... purely personal preference.
I'd probably stick with the RC-F since it would be newer. You'd also get a better overall experience with a mix of luxury and performance, whereas the Porsche would be leaning more towards the performance side. But as @coralchopper said, it's all about personal preference.
@@RichWithCars @coralchopper ok great thank you for the reply
Im looking at a LC500.. but after owning a 2018 SL63, its hard to drop the power that much.. the NA engine sounds fantastic though !!
I completely understand. The SL63 has loads of power, especially in the torque department. The LC is not about a numbers experience - it's all about the aural and overall driving enjoyment. You should consider the 2024 LC500, as they fixed all of the main concerns that many people complained about (infotainment, lack of 360 degree camera). At least test drive it, and then see for yourself.
yes im thinking of this.. and I just bought a RX500h so similar infotainment etc, should be easy to use.. maybe get the same colour so they match LOL.. silver with red interior !@@RichWithCars
