Genuinely my dream modern car. I don't care if it ain't the fastest around, the looks, the interior in tan and the sound of the engine in a comfortable GT package, with toyota reliability, what else could you want?!
Have only seen 2 LC500 in my city in the past 2 years (and yes I followed them for a bit), it's road presence and sound alone is remarkable. This design can go another 4 year's with 1 facelift.
I just got mine a month ago. It’s the most amazing car, ever. Sheer joy to drive. I like the CD player + trackpad. I really do. The whole car has a Blade Runner feel to it. The engine + exhaust are incredible.
My jaw completely dropped! Beautiful car!! I don't need any damn massage seats in a car. That's for home after a hard day's work in front of a 50 inch TV, or for old retired people😂😂😂. I wanna go ON THROTTLE!!!
Phenomenally gorgeous shade of blue that always works with white. I would want a badge on the side indicating I had a naturally aspirated V8 under the hood, though, a quad exhaust, and a little more pop to the wheels. JMO. When you've got it, tastefully flaunt it just a little lol...
Im so glad to see that the rear end looks just as good as the rest of the car. Most cars (except Mustangs and maybe Camaro's) seem to have an awesome front facing and side profile, while showing no love to the rear. This car is beautiful all the way around!
I was looking forward to meet you when I went there. Your reviews never disappoint it’s always a 10/10. I won a Toyota racing hat 😂 and It would’ve been nice to have your autograph on it before leaving the event.
I have a ‘23 LC500 Convertible. The fit and finish is superb as well as the exterior design. This GT car is as good as it gets. This is it, hands down the best there is.🏖️
I also like the flat black wheels with the brilliant eminent white pearl body paint. I'm quite okay with the separated exhaust outlets as opposed to a unified quad exhaust layout. As for the cost of this bespoke edition of the LC500. as I always say with Lexus, you get what you pay for. As cool as the C8 Corvette is, I'd much prefer this model any day of the week. Thanks, again, Joe for another great review.
Hi Joe- I too reviewed the LC500 as the quality and reliablity lineage of Lexus speaks volumes but went w/the 23 C8-HTC ,kept it under $100K ,hopefully no recalls no regrets yet
The LC500 has the best taillights in the automotive industry. Everyone seems to miss it but it literally comes with the infinite mirror effect taillights from the factory. No one else has ever done it from what I’ve seen.
120k for 472hp, 0-60 in 4.1s “in perfect conditions”. Toyota must be thinking we’re still in April 1st, charging that much for barely enough power to keep up with Nissan Altima 😂😂
Rollin. In my 5.0, with the rag top down, so my hair can blow. Lexus is a wonderful brand. Beautiful, modern convertible, that is sure to turn some heads. ✌️💙
My experience at the Lexus exhibit at the NYIAS this year was a very odd one. I wanted to look under the hood in the IS500 to see the beautiful V8 and one of the workers came and told me not to open it. Not sure I've ever experienced that in the many years I've been going to auto shows. Huge let down...
This is not a Bespoke build...it's clearly an Inspiration series according to the badge (1 of 125) and the door kick plates. Bespokes don't get a number and the badge would say "Bespoke Build".
Missing the CD player! Most of the folks that can afford the LC500 have tons of CDs! 😅 The 2023 dash is much more elegant with the subdued screen and little analog clock. That popup-style fingerprint magnet touch screen looks less premium. Otherwise, it's still a work of art!
I love the LC 500, and if I were a little less responsible with my money, I'd by the used Structural Blue one for sale nearby. This one is nice, but I'm honestly tired of the blacked-out wheels thing. Sometimes it works. I saw a blacked-out Urus on the freeway today that looked amazing, but generally? It's overdone.
I will stick with my 21 White on Toasted Caramel with a Black top. No likey the new screen an how they cheapened up the panel to the right of the screen.
