Lexus LC500 complaints - BUSTED! 

The infotainment complaints are grossly overblown and more of a talking point for reviewers than anything else. Touchscreens are greasy, dirty and tacky plus the overwhelming majority are abruptly jammed into a dashboard like a gravestone. Lexus touchpad isn't the best out there, especially compared to something like BMW i-Drive, but it's still easy enough to use (perhaps less so for people who barely have any time with it). Also there's physical controls for the HVAC and shit that matters while driving. The LC500's screen integration (pre-2024) is better than 95% of vehicles on the market.

I have the same touch pad infosys on my RX and I can tell you that once you’re familiar with the menus you don’t even need to look at the screen to know what you’re selecting, your fingers just know where to go to the item. Versus the touchscreen you’ve got to look at where your finger is pointing.

Totally agree with the infotainment system. Voice command works excellent and even pulls up seat heater function.

Regarding the complaints about having to go through tons of menus to adjust the cooled/heated seats. The climate concierge works great but if you want to manually adjust them quickly, simply click on the icon on the right part of the screen that looks like a stick figure sitting down with an arrow pointing at his head. That takes you directly to the ventilated seat controls. Extremely quick and easy.

I have a 21 vert, the track pad is clunky but I use it so infrequently, it matters very little. The new screen and tech provides some benefits but the design of the dash is pretty much ruined.

You are 100% correct... In everyday driving, the 2UR V8 has PLENTY of power! No it isn't a track weapon, but comfort and capability is the name of the game. Thanks for posting!

I have one in the UK and agree with all your views except to say the upright position of the back seat makes it very uncomfortable for all but short journeys but it also provides great storage space😀

I’ve had the coupe since 2019 and really don’t think about the track pad anymore. I use CarPlay exclusively and it’s a non-issue.

Great video, look forward to more content. I have the LC coupe.

Great video by the way. Your good and this and should consider more car content

I agree - the touchscreen makes you lean up out of your normal position to use. And you very rarely need to access any of it once you have everything set up.

One smart person, You are absolutely right, great explanation !

Hi Ben, I have the exact model, spec and color. Congratulations on the decision to buy the best car in the world :) I agree 100% on all the points you mentioned. Well said 👍🏼

The back seats are not back seats, they are insurance reducers. Also note the back seats are not leather so not equal at all.

Special car for special people … What a piece of art

totally agree w u @ 2:18. i love the clock w the carplay, didn't know this version had carplay, but now knowing this my21 would be my go-to. i don't like the new ones without the clock.

Stunning vehicle

Its is wireless CarPlay?

Where did you buy it from? What is the insurance price and. Is it for full coverage and property tax on it?

Won’t it be much cheaper to buy from a private seller and do a full inspection at a dealer before buying it? Im curious how the 2025 will look. If it looks better then 24 I’ll wait till that one is couple of year then buy it if not then maybe in couple years buy the 24 used one since they finally changed the no more pad in e middle. I have older vehicles for just liability for 3 vehicles for a year I pay only like $600. Are you glad you got it or u wish u got something different?

2024 new dash...horrid deisgn. Those complaints are non-exisitent for real users. This car is all about the Looks, Engine Music and Reliability! Love my LC. Btw, backseat is only good for 5 minutes :)
