The LC is a dramatically underrated car. In my eyes a great Japanese design, with outstanding Build-quality and an engine to remember. It is a "buy and keep for the rest of your life" car to do grand tours with. Which means it will appeal to very very few people. If I had the cash I would buy one as a second car.
However, I‘d choose the Coupé over the Convertible any day of the week.
It’s a rare car in the first place so not many second hand cars will hit the marked. I agree, convertible for California coupe ROW.
@@fxkraft1037 a Long road Trip Like driving from Germany through Switzerland to north Italy and the south of france
@@MartinJakobs yep, Coupe all the way!
The most beautifull GT sports car at the moment. No need for an Aston Martin or BMW 8 series.
These will be collectibles
22:30 No it does not. You guys are incorrect. There is nothing being played but the engine. There are tubes that funnel sound from the engine bay in through the firewall into the cabin. Lexus made a big deal about this at launch. You must have overlooked it. Its all natural. SO if you have an issue that's on you. Placebo effect. It also means you are bias and cannot hold a true unbias opinion on the topic.
Exactly
I have had my LC500 Sport + coup in Sonic Red a week now and absolute love it, it think the coup lines are much more pleasing on the eye than the soft top.
I test drove the BMW 8 series and the Merc S class coup but I bought the LC because of its futuristic looks and individuality.
Every where I go in the UK people stop and ask me about the car, it’s a real head turner.
That’s exactly why I love Lexus. They still have that air of exclusivity that BMW/Mercedes etc have lost. Seeing a Lexus on the road is still a bit of an event. Seeing a BMW is a bit like seeing a Ford. It’s just not that special anymore
Another benefit over the BMW - it won't explode in metal parts and glowing check engine lights in exactly 1 year and 11 months (one week after the warranty runs out) :P Good choice! Agree about the coupé vs cab.
A beautiful car. Inside and out. Stunning V8 sound. And with the added bonus of Japanese reliability what’s not to like.
I still see 2002 SC430's on the road all the time...so i imagine this car will last a 100 years.
So how about a toyota soarer
@@j-leeofficial540 I guess the Toyota Soarer or Lexus SC300/400 too ;)
@@nicolasmikah4168 Well, you know most of Lexus model are rebadged Toyota models.
@@j-leeofficial540 *were
At 22:20 To reduce confusion. The front "sound actuator" in the Lexus LC500 and the rear openings for the exhaust are all mechanical acoustic devices. Only ANC is played through the loudspeakers.
could you explain this part to me a little more? Are you saying there is dedicated sound piping from the engine bay/exhaust coming into the cabin via controllable valves?
Very nice review as always Mr Thomas. It's one of the most beautiful cars in the world and definitely much more reliable than its rivals and the build quality is excellent as all Lexus are.
Finally, thank you Thomas. One of the best sounding cars in the OPF era.
Sorry aber Du bist der einzige Tester von 100+ Videos der die Sitzposition sowie das Raumgefühl bemängelt...und der Sound wird von einer Soundtube wie im Mustang
in die Kabine geleitet und nicht künstlich / elektronisch erzeugt! Wirklich alle fanden den Sound absolut göttlich! Alles in Allem der negativste Review über dieses Auto
von allen Reviews hier auf UA-cam!
I love these cars. Far superior than the German manufacturers Mercedes, Audi and BMW. (Sorry Thomas) Lexus really know how to build cars properly. Thanks for a great review.
nice! nice!! nice!!! i like that ride in the rain shout-out from the r unit!!!!!
The first time I saw one in the road and had to follow it, I didn’t know what it was. Loved it loved it, loved it to the point I sane that was sold on the dealers floor and had to have one. Trading in my 2010 Vette. This car is beautiful. A piece of driveway jewelry 🏖️
I don't believe the LC has a sound actuator - the natural sound is "piped" into the cabin like they did with the LFA.
Awesome review as always Thomas!!
Keep it up!! 💯
22:25 - incorrect. It’s a passive sound tube to the cabin. No electronics involved at all.
Well it does come through the speaker
@@autogefuehl No it doesn't. Only the LC500h does. Here is a quote - 'In addition to the steering, Lexus nailed the booming V-8 sound. Powered by the same 5.0-liter V-8 that’s in the GS F and the RC F, the LC500’s is up a few horsepower, to 471. With the help of a tube running between the intake manifold and the firewall plus flaps in the exhaust-but no electronically produced noise-the cabin is positively filled with nigh-on-perfect V-8 frequencies.'
@@autogefuehl I love your reviews but it's sacrilege to accuse one of the best sounding cars for sale right now of fake engine noise in the cabin.
There's a button in the right hand tail light to open the boot/trunk. Not just inside or the fob.
Lexus should make an estate version of es300h. To create some competition for merc bmw and audi, just more reliable
Been looking forward to a review of the Lexus LC 500 since last year already. Awesome stuff Autogefühl keep up the great work.
You can't beat Lexus quality of finish
Love the sound of that naturally aspirated engine.
Sounds like an F1 engine, super !
Nice interior quality , too bad the infotainment system is a big , big , let down.
It's too hard and fiddly to use , they should make it more modern .
Otherwise a very, very , cool car.
The LC really stands out compared to all the extremely sterile looking German cars.
Haha, you are absolutely correct about open top driving when it is raining. (same for snowy days as well). Thanks for the review.
=)
At last! I’ve been waiting for this review! Glad to see the amazing quality!
I really appreciate this review - your review actually goes against most other ones when it comes to comfort and ride quality. Hopefully I can get a chance to test drive these before Lexus takes them to the chopping block.
As a life long german car fan... Audi... And german technology.... I must think about trying a japanese manufacturer... And as watching Scotty Channel.. He says only toyota honda... I will buy this lexus car! Its beautiful!
Totally voting for the Blue and Beige Convertible - excellent video
I was waiting for Lexus reviews. Because Lexus has unique styling of exterior and interior, it has an appeal the others do not.
Your obsession with leather free interiors is annoying. Tells us about the car and not your personal preferences.
Thank you very much for your interest in this topic. As a start, please tune in to what the animal leather industry tried to do here with our channel: ua-cam.com/video/nP_CvLlaFlI/v-deo.html
In general, depending on the animal skin grade, the animals are specifically raised for this matter. However even if meat would be the reason no.1 in other cases, the hide remains one of the most profitable body parts. That means: If manufacturers put animal leather in a car and you accept it as a customer, you give your money to an industry that earns money by oppressing humans, animals and destroys the environment, you make them more profitable. Also, if you turn the argument around "meat is the waste of the leather industry" you realize how biased the argument is. After all, would you care for which body part you would murdered? Or imagine someone robs you on the street and beats you to death - would it matter to you if it was for your Smartphone or for your purse?
The animal agriculture industry occupies 2/3 of all farm land on this planet which cannot be used for direct human nutrition then. That is extremely inefficient. The no.1 cause for deforestation is the animal industry. It is also one of the biggest contributor to climate change. The amount of land, resources, energy and water being used is beyond imagination. If you are interested in how the animals are being treated and transported in the global leather industry, watch this footage: ua-cam.com/video/tkjCAmq1_8E/v-deo.html
Note that the footage is genuine and was recorded by a highly decorated investigative journalist in Germany I know myself personally.
For the alternative, you can either use artificial fabrics which can be made from recyclables (we have already shown a lot of vehicles that use great fabric seats from PET-bottles etc.) or more and more also from plant-based materials (like Pinatex). And even if you would create a seat completely with petroleum without a recycling share, the amount of oil being used for that is nothing in comparing just to once fueling up your car.
In practical reasons, fabric or microfibre seats are just more useful. You do not sweat in summer and it is not cold in winter. And there are also new leatherette materials available which are superior in every aspect: ua-cam.com/video/u94YXJ72UTA/v-deo.html
Using animal skin on seats is a major issue of animal rights, human rights - and after all just of common sense what is better both for the environment and just more practical and more luxurious for the customer. We cannot change what we have bought in the past (that also counts for ourselves of course!), but with more information and compassion we can change how we decide in the future.
Fantastic content. Comparing Cabriolet and Coupe of the same car is great and much sought after but hardly found
👍
My favourite Lexus it deserves more attention
Such a gorgeous looking car both the hard & soft top. Enjoyable review you guys cheers for enduring the weather to bring us these beauties!
Have a lexus rc 200t and 100% satisfied. It is a excellent car.
I must say, your the only one that has more negative comments on this fantastic vehicle……are you more for the German cars😂😂😂
Stunning... Outside, under the hood and on the ear! ✌️😍👌
Underrated gem! You can choose to refer it to the car or the channel! Love both, greetings from Italy Thomas! 👍🏻
Love the world renound German humor there 👍
I prefer the european or american coupes and convertibles, but i'm starting to like japanese cars, especially Toyota,( Lexus) and Honda more and more
Great with a Lexus again, still miss the ES 300H and the LS 500. I would listen to your advice every time, tnx Thomas!
This car needs to be praised for being raw V8 power, no gimmicks, no fake noises. Built for GT marvel. Shame Thomas doesn't get it.
The LC 500 Coupe in Radiant Red and with the bright interior is my dream car. ^_^
Dark exterior combines better, wait till you see one in person.
@@smora6054 I've seen them in person. =)
I own one in infrared and black interior. Unfortunately, the LC comes only in 3 interior colors, the black is most practical, however, if there was a combo between Black and Tan that would be my taste. The all tan attracts dirt too much.
@@nicolasmikah4168 can you show it please?
the best looking Lexus by far
Great, comprehensive review, thank you!
Gut gemacht als immer, Thomas!
Thomas, I am confused. Are you saying here that the engine sound is amplified by the speakers? Or piped into the car BMW style? This is contrary to what other care reviewers state. Please clarify. I think there is a big difference between an active exhaust system and fake sound through the speakers.
There are no fake engine sounds through the speakers. Thomas is unfortunately incorrect here.
@@LasseDeleuran Thanks lasse for replying with the correct information. That´s what I thought. So Thomas.....I am normally a big fan of your reviews. Often times on cars i have and therefore know something about, like the Defender and the SL, I think you nail it. Well done. But here, in this review, you messed up. You first off, while no one expects you to get every technical point correct , you should yourself go back and comment here with the correct information. But more importantly, it is no surprise while you putz around on these little narrow country roads in this car that, as a naturally aspirated V8 needs good long winding roads to excel, you litter your commentary with phrases like yah....its ok...it´s not that suitable.....its not the best.....Etc. Half of what this car is about is the exhaust on this V8. It’s clear you don`t like this car. And that´s ok. Just say so. But be careful......whether you intended it or not....you come across here as very biased. You normally seem very unbiased and balanced , but here you clearly communicate, since it´s not German or Italian or even English...its just ok. Since you have not come back here to correct your misinformation about piped in sound, I feel completed to encourage your viewers who are thinking about this car to look at Topher, Winding Road, Savagegeese and Smoking Tire. They get out there and really open up this car and you will get a totally different perspective to driving around on a rainy tiny narrow road through cute villages at 50km.
A very useful, matter of fact review. I do like the colour combinations of the convertible, it could potentially win me.
Coupe looks fine, convertible looks terrific. Unusual imo that a convertible looks so good and better than the coupe.
The cameraman fact checking Thomas on the drinks and correcting him on the directions :)
That front facing camera was really shaky, was the suspension really that stiff? Or was it because of the camera mount and the really bad road?
Gorgeous car btw.
Cheers! That shaking happens with vehicles without window frames from time to time. But indeed suspension plus 21" was quite harsh
I'm a family man Mr Tommas it's not for me but I really like your reviews
thanks pal !
Just get a divorce !
terribly biased opinion towards cross selling German cars...I've been watching your videos for a long time and your bias towards unreliable German cars is astonishing
I remember your review of the Lexus Rcf..same thing all over..
Just look at other people's comments on this video...love it...amazing..and they are not talking purely from design perspective... reliability, construction, comfort...I've never seen you with a shaky camera on a bumpy road while reviewing a VW or Audi or mercedes car..guess they would kick your butt and never let you review them again..which is what Lexus Germany should do now
I had plenty of German cars, touareg ( differential and electrical problems), Q7( engine refurb after 40k miles), A7( new gear transmission at 35k miles), plenty of other European brands(the cheap ones( all died on me pretty early) and 2 Lexus( service maintenance oil and going..gs430 lasted me 10 years..the Lexus Rcf has 5 years and 100k km and just oil and brakes.....
Really not making justice to the car reviews..unfair And biased...unsubscribed you channel
LEXUS 👌🏻 LC 😍 it’s BEST DREAM CAR 😎
Hi Thomas, been watching your videos for a while. Love how in depth you are. However, how come you guys haven't reviewed a current gen ES yet?
Make a full lenght review of Lexus LS, please.
The interior quality of this car is comparable only to Bentley and Rolls Royce. The exterior and the engine are just absolutely gorgeous!
You should tour the factory 🏭 where it’s made.
I really like the hard top LC-500 s a daily long-distance cruiser & commuter when I'm back in New Zealand. Its on my shopping list now
Long live V8 naturally aspirated engine
you can also open the trunk with little button by the light.
Just liked the video, now it's time to watch it
Thats too pretty a car..love it
LEXUS 👌 LC COUPE IT'S MY DREAM CAR 😍 LC500 CONVERTIBLE IT'S BEST CABRIO 👍😎
Hello Thomas,
great review as always!
Will you please review the golf 8 GTD?
Glorious looking car and I’m seeing more of them on the streets. If I had $100k I would easily choose this over a BMW 8 series or Merc SL, the only problem I have is the 911. The Porka is my default sports car and it would be the one I would go for at 100k. Dream on. Lol
Really enjoyed the review. For once, I think the convertible looks better than the coupe. But every time I see that Lexus front grill I think it makes the car look like the creature from the Predator movies... a bit scary lol.
Japanese engineering is just awesome, out of this world.

I'd like to see the LC 500 to be compared against the Porsche 911, the 2024 Mercedes AMG GT, the Jaguar.
I am 195 cm and very comfortable. Mother in law in the back seat no so much...
Can't wait to see the new lexus IS I read it won't be available in Europe... Is that true?
I personally like real leather. Why not use all of the cow? And if I want it they should offer it. I do agree that for those of you who do not want that they should offer the Nulux option. Not sure why they dont.

Yeah real leather is a bit better, but the fake one is also getting really good at this point.
dream car alert wooooo
I'd buy the convertible today if it were for the horrible controls. They would be acceptable in a dedicate sports car but not for a $115,000 grand touring car. I'm waiting to see the new SL.
On fire again with the jokes. This time a little classic Top Gear vibe with the camerawork. A nice touch indeed.
The brown interior looks much better IMHO
Very nice 😊
Lexus LC, amazing design & engine sound, but I keep see complaint on the infotainment system.
Infotainment system. It's a Toyota after all.
Make a car like that with 4 door = win!
Love a tan interior
Lexus always seem to be let down by the infotainment. Shame because they are cool cars.
Only people that don't own a Lexus complains about the infotainment.

Did you miss the trunk Button at the right rear Light? (total of 3 ways to open the trunk)
Please do new 2021 Lexus IS 300 sports
I need name of the musical number used in the intro starting @1:08
And this car is just stunning. My favorite GT this side of a GTC4 Lusso.
I love this car. Funny fact, after I started to llok car reviews, I think the japanese brands had better entretaiment systems
Yeah they can make playstation but can't figure out how to make infotainment system. Really weird
I will take the convertible.
I will take the other one 😁
Big 👍4 the review.
As for the cars 🤮
cheers!
The cars are beautiful
@@yes8032 it's a matter of taste. I highly appreciate their effort but the outcome is not for me. Sorry. The review is top, as always, especially that td during a rainy weather.
@@l.e.i.4111 I understand I just really like the cars that’s why but I agree the review is the best
Respect for your oppinion but I keep mine. It's not that I want to be a troll or something like that. 👍
I know they are beautiful cars, but I personally just can't connect with the design, probably the most annoying feature are the door handles, just make them pop out fully! That would drive me nuts, but did like the partial review on the lawnmower haha! Great review Thomas 👍
Does it rain EVERYDAY in Europe???
Yes
NO
Die Klimaanzeige sieht immer noch aus, wie aus den 90zigern! Trotzdem toller Wagen.
i hope to hear Tomas speaking German to review a car as a special edition.👶
Long live natural (=animal) leather seats!

@@autogefuehl I like your reviews in general, Thomas, you are very thorough. This review, however, was not one of your best... As to animal rights etc., I want to give you a piece of advice - do not use your Autogefühl chanel to promote your vegan point of view - open another one for this purpose. (Obviously, it's your channel, and you can do whatever you want.) Personally, having lived in Western Europe for almost 20 years now, I start being fed up with ecology talk, animal rights and electrification of the auto industry... I have a right to think and act differently, so I eat meat at times and love it, drive a good V6 Lexus with real leather seats and enjoy my life - we only live once. I am ecology sensitive, but I do not belong to the Green Peace group of people: it's all about politics and money, "ecology" is the means to get more of it...
Look a cow in the eye and tell her "I am fed up with eco talk". It's about lives here, not about abstract figures.
@@Boris-wg6lr I think he did a good job with this video
The convertible isn’t available with Alcantara, because people like you drive them with the top down in the rain.
Most beautiful and sexy cars ever made.
Nice review on these, already, out of date cars. Thanks, I will stick with electric.
thanks Steven!
I don’t understand the comment about numberplates. Can someone update me.
GTA computer game where you change car/color/number plates to stay undiscovered as a villain ;)
Old school car.overpay.
i remember a few years ago i seen two old guiys in the LSC 500, i never seen this car before nor again. i know this because i was in a traffic jam and these turds made a U-Turn fin front of me and made traffic worse.
A real driving auto review here. This Toyota has a Bang up exterior and a confusing interior with a track pad and feke engine noise. I'd spend my $$$$ on a BMW M8 than this for a two door Luxury Coupe that give be both and more so of today tech and features.
The new BMW’s are the kings of fake engine noises 😂 M8 is no exception
fool, there's nothing fake from the exhaust of the LC500...get your facts straight..! And, BMW's and Porsches around here are a dime a dozen and don't get noticed at all... except when they are heading to the mechanic again..
@@bbqpitboys I don't buy cars for others too Look at Me. In Styling it goes both ways out then in and the interior is lacking for it style and dated track pad and no touch screen with that dash. My point.. Why it don't sell as much as BMW or Porsche and have Manuals too that I prefer and love for control driving than just riding... 🤔😎
@@QuietStormX you base your opinion on the track pad which is actually easy to use once you take the time to learn? -besides voice control takes care of most functions.. the manual argument is lame. I grew up on manuals but this 10 speed will out-perform your stick in a heartbeat. Pound thru the lightning fast manual mode with the paddles if ya must.. The M8 is a 4 door baby carrier, has 600 hp but why? a boring design actually, needs to have a mechanic on stand by as we all know and sells for $150,000 and up... what are you talking about?
Gave you a thumbs down for filming in the rain.
