LEXUS LC500 - Better Than a BMW, Mercedes, Jaguar or Audi? Let's Find Out! | TheCarGuys.tv

This is probably the car I would choose if I had to pick a 'forever car' to drive for the rest of my life. It's comfortable, reliable, powerful and looks and sounds like a piece of art.

So incredibly underrated. One of those cars that people will talk about long after it goes out of production. "Why don't they make them like this anymore". Because no one buys one. Including me. Can't even afford the model version.

As an LC500 owner since 2018, I can honestly say you cannot buy a better car anywhere. In my many decades and having owned a bunch of those stupid "supercars" that every knob seems to lust after, it is now more apparent than ever that those cars are simply a waste of time, energy and money. When you've spent $500,000 on a car and it turns out to be a piece of dung, you really appreciate a fine automobile like the LC500. For almost five years my car has been trouble free, fun and enjoyable to drive and every single time I look at it, it makes my heart flutter. A child would want the LFA because that's what children are like. No person could live with the LFA as a daily driver. It's an out and out race car and we don't do our driving on the race track as a general rule. The infotainment system is awesome once you've learned VOICE COMMAND. In my four plus years, the track pad has been used less than ten times. Set up your personal preferences, read the OWNER'S MANUAL like an adult, and you're good to go. My car does 0-60 in 4.33 seconds and that's plenty fast. If you want anything faster, buy an electric car and then live with all the other problems. The LC500 is value for money. It's under priced by a lot. You simply drive it, maintain it as per the factory instructions and you'll never have a problem.

I have been lucky enough to have owned 18 New cars in my lifetime, now 64 and an X Porsche mechanic. I would have to say this is the best built enjoyable vehicle I have ever owned. It’s an amazing experience if you enjoy beautiful engineering and Luxury driving. Puts a big smile on your face when you plant that pedal with the V8. This car should be a definite Future Classic!

Thank you for finally reviewing this awesome vehicle. Very under-appreciated and I own a convertible one in InfraRed with a tan top and Toasted Caramel interior. A work of art! I can attest this is a superb GT in every way. What an exhaust note!

That's a proper motor car, and one of the finest sounding in history. Congratulations on 100K, long overdue.

I took delivery of my 2023 LC Convertible last week. The car is truly a piece of driveway jewelry. Simply stunning from every angle. It’s like sitting in a leather cocoon. The track pad is not an issue, maybe in time. Every classic premium car. All cars have quirks, not a game changer for me. Buy one you will be very pleased with it.🏖️

I was waiting for you to say "Just kidding..." about the leg room in the rear seats. There is ZERO space back there. It's strictly for groceries and a discount on your insurance because it - technically - has 4 seats. But I love the car. Traded an F-Type convertible for one. You can cruise around like a normal person and it's as quiet and comfortable as the LS. But put your foot in it and it's just glorious.

I think these are one of the best looking cars on the road , at any price . Absolutely stunning car , especially in the dark red metallic colour 👍🏻

Definitely a future classic!

I have literally only seen one LC500 on the roads here in Belgium…one. And it lives somewhere in my neighbourhood because I often come across it. It’s a black one with tan interior and it looks stunning. I learned a lot more about it thanks to this episode and appreciate it even more now. Thanks Damian!

Seeing these in person, it's like a show car made real. The contours and details are next level.

ive been subbed to your channel for quite some time. always enjoyed your videos and i must say as an LC500 owner myself, i never expected to see one on your channel, much less such high praise for it, from someone who spends so much time in very high end ferraris, porsches and maybachs. All I have to say is that I agree with almost everything you said, including it's weight being it's biggest disadvantage. Thanks for the lovely 40 minutes of entertainment!

Loved the video, congrats on 100k. Very well deserved

Always found this car magnificent and interesting since it launched, it such an overlooked car in my eyes. Great to see Damian giving it the place it deserves.

Great stuff as always, rare on Youtube to find insightful, informative, honest, balanced car reviews. Would love to try an LC500, always liked the look of them.

I have an LC 500 and there is no way on earth that you were going to fit anybody in that backseat unless they were an amputee

Your reviews are really good. You have an ability to inform me without annoying me - something most car youtubers fail at. Keep up the good work 👍

Another great video! I recently test drove an LC500 convertible, and I agree with all your comments. I think the car would look much nicer with a lighter color. Whoever buys this car will have an instant classic! Thank you for taking the time to do this review.

I love the LC500, especially with the Caramel Tan interior.
