The Lexus LC500 is a Total Hidden Gem and My Favorite Lexus and Here's Why!

This guy likes the car and having owned my 2018 for almost four years, so do I. The couple of gripes he has boggled my mind. The steering column cover? I would have never thought that in a million years. The transmission for him wasn't to his liking. For me, it's sensational and has been the entire time I've been driving the car. This car is not expensive at all. In fact, it's way under-priced. It should sell in the $300k range, especially when you consider it's so much nicer than an Aston-Martin and will never leave you stranded by the side of the road waiting for a tow truck. The LC 500 is as close to a perfect car as there has ever been. It excels in every category that a mature human being would be concerned with. No, it isn't a race car but it is very fast. If you want something that will do 0-60 in 1.8 seconds, don't buy this car. You're an idiot and you should buy what other idiots buy. Idiots don't buy a Lexus. Go get that Ferrari or Lambo or some other hunk of junk that will cost $50,000 in repairs in the first 30,000 miles. Have fun with that! In the meantime, if you doubt me...then go check out an LC 500 for yourself. Once you do that, you will understand.

We tested a LC500 a few weeks back.. Why this car isnt more popular ill never know... AMAZING to drive and art to look at

Stunning looks. Probably the last V8 normal aspirated reliable sporty car that can be used as a daily driver.

Toasted Carmel interior is amazing. When you drive it more the transmission adjusts to your driving style and becomes an equally beautiful thing

I fell in love with the LC500 in 2019. My plan was to pick up one after 3-4 years when they would be really depreciated. Well, that plan didn’t work out!

It’s really a special car. I remember driving it a my Audi Dealership and thought that Lexus makes a car that Aston Martin, Maserati, and Bentley wishes they could make. The LC500 and the Mercedes Benz S class Coupe are my favorite coupes ever. I’d buy the Lexus, because it will last forever.

I've got a 2018 and still love the car. After four years, it's as nice now as it was back then. As for the transmission, mine works perfectly. It's a gem. What I do know is "reviewers" for the most part are too lazy to read the Owner's Manual and become familiar with the software. The LC 500 is programmable and has several driving modes including "CUSTOM". You can also set the "rev limiter" to your own preference. The paddle shifters work fantastic. Drive mode works best for me because I don't like to pretend I'm a hot shot race car driver but on those rare occasions when Manual is more fun, the paddle shifters work as they should. No offense, but you should read and learn the software. These are the finest cars on the market today without exception.

I could never own that car, I would sit in my garage admiring it all day if I wasn't driving it.

This guy is awesome! He explains details, good bad and ugly in a very constructive and informative way unlike Scotty who just screams on the camera..

I would buy a Lexus LC500 rather than a Porsche 911 as it is such a dynamic design, the V8 and is much more exclusive as a lot less of them sold and on the road.

I have the 21 convertible in liquid platinum. Mine stays in the garage and only comes out on nice sunny days. It is amazing to drive.

This has been my dream car ever since I saw one at an auto show. I sat inside it and was absolutely blown away.

Just purchased my 2024 Bespoke build LC Coupe. Upgraded with wireless Apple car play, front & 360 degrees cameras, touchscreen & other upgrades. Lexus made a great car even greater. For those in the know, this is the best car on the road. The engineering is amazing. People say Corvettes are faster but Corvettes are a different animal. The LC is a grand tourer & it’s very rare. There were almost 58,000 c8 corvettes produced in 2023. They are a dime a dozen. Only about 1,300 LC’s were made. Much more exclusive. I prefer to be different & not follow the crowd. This will be my forever car

A true gem! I have a Lexus RX 350 & love it. I will definitely stay in the Lexus family!💃🏻♥️👍🏼🌟

There’s a guy in my neighborhood that just bought a car exactly like this and let me tell you until you see the paint depth in person it’s amazing the way Toyota paints their vehicles and put them together it’s still pretty amazing to me my father just got a notice in the mail on their pristine 2008 Highlander about paint quality issues with the pearl white or maybe it was blizzard white, but I wax their cars yearly for them and the Highlander only has 45,000 miles on it and both my parents are retired…

I just picked mine up after having ordered it in Oct of last year. I test drove the M5 (second favorite just sick inside and out), and comp (to harsh), E63 (hated the interior full of creeks and cheap feeling to the touch), and 911 7mt (close 3rd but not nearly full of personality as the LC. Im so in love w/ that thing.

Thank you for the most informative LC500 video I have yet seen. I learned so much about the car and now I want one even more!

My personal dream car! So glad you got a chance to review one.

This car is truly ICONIC! Worth every penny. In 10-20 yrs, these LCs will sell for a small fortune on Barrett Auto Auction.

Really enjoyed this video. I have had my LC 500 convertible for a year and a half. When driving it you feel that nothing is wrong in the world (too bad that not true).
