Lexus LS 500 F Sport - CEOs and Peasants - Test Drive | Everyday Driver 

As a second owner Lexus driver I really enjoyed this one. I will be listening in the morning 🍂🏔🌞

Paul was on a real tear with this one... "I feel like a baller." "This thing is the stripper." "I'm in Peasantville." "Define decent..." "You as the driver get all the attention. Back here as the passenger I'm getting ignored. No fun, no entertainment, no buttons, no nothing" (opens and shuts the armrest lid). "The torso strikes again." "Get ready to not be entertained back here." "The doors have the soft close feature...really ramps up the driving experience." "Pre-I." "The boost gauge is nice to have, it tells me how much fuel I'm not saving." "Yes, you need more headroom, more entertainment, more buttons, more stuff to push, more stuff to break." "Oh look, an Aventador...he's going to burn to the ground any second just you wait...he's going to put it sport mode, slightly overrev the engine and have a melt down but we're going to be fine." "I'm gonna' check how I look...at least I can check on this tiny mirror....my hair does look good." I know I missed a few that pertained to overland option and something about drag racing and giving yourself permission to screw accessories to the body panels as the second owner. The only thing that might have made this better is if Paul had a copy of The Great Gatsby with him. Well done!

"They haven't gotten anything that is sporty yet." Ever heard of the IS F, GS F, RC F?

To me this is the "dad trim" and it's exactly how I would get one if I was replacing my Chevy SS. If you're putting kids back there in backward facing or forward facing seats who need the fancy rear seats? As a parent you got what you want: good looks, comfortable ride and some power.

Love the Tudor GMT you're wearing in this video! I'm a also big fan of the LS500, and am shopping for an F Sport similar to the one here. Thanks for your review!

LEXUS 👌🏻😎👍🏻 THE BEST OF THE BEST

What’s weird is that Lexus had the perfect opportunity to use the 5.0V8 with the name LS500 like they did with the 400, 430 & 460…

Very honest review!

I have one question regarding production. Have you used Sennheiser microphones to record this show???

Great video

It's odd that the lowly IS500 FSport has the 5.0l V8, but not on their flagship sedan.

This car is sex on wheels a perfect formula of luxury classy interior sweet twin turbo motor. This is the driving enthusiast model compared to the fully loaded decked out luxurious hybrid.

Other than the huge grill I like the overall looks of this sedan. The rear leg room looks good.

please do the new grand Cherokee, my sister got one, was amazed by the mcintosh sound system but wasn't blown away in any other way. I'd be interested to see your take.

I'm the guy would spec this car like this. I'm driving myself and it would work for me

i wonder i own a lexus 500 RWD, is RWD is better than AWD? Thanks for your responding

Dude, that Aventador joke, classic! 😆😆😆

@Paul theres a lot of people who buy Lexus LS to drive as a daily. My Dad is one of them.

Same can be said most German cars having nothing to do with their number badge

I love the vehicle, but it looks so much like the ES model, that I cannot recognize the LS until I'm only several feet from it on the road.

Lexus is not met to be performance oriented. It’s tuned for comfort and quiet cabin.

Gents, i own a ‘11 LS 460 that is an excellent sedate sedan…. Did Lexus ever offer a 5.0L V8 on the LS that you mentioned twice at the beginning of your episode?

Can you do a review on the latest Mercedes S class?

The V8 is a dying breed. Having a good one will make a good investment in the future.

I like that Lexus offers a choice of AWD or RWD on all trims. Choice is good. I wish BMW and Mercedes would offer a similar choice.

The guy in the blue shirt complains way too much this car is a 10 out of 10 complaining does not make you a better car journalist. The interior on this car is magnificent there is no $60,000 cars with build quality and door panels and design like this. The exaggeration in this video is real. I wish lexus would stop giving you guys press cars. This drivetrain is incredible

I love the exterior look of the F-Sport but the interior is meh. I wish they made an F -Sport that came with the high end luxury interior

I think the hybrid is for people who just want a luxury ride when on the streets, so, its no need to hit the pedal hard all the time. That means you rarely hear the engine. With the new LS 500 that has the Teammate software, it makes the hybrid even more luxurious when on the highway cause you can just sit back, and listen to the music With the F-sport, it's made for people who want a more sporty ride, and like to drive sporty. That means they will hit the throttle much more, and they want to hear the engine somewhat

Talking about an $88k car like it’s a lot of money, but have you looked a diesel truck with some options lately? $88k is a bargain for a flagship luxury sedan.

Despite Godzilla s brute force engineering. Best 2 turbo six 2 date

6:35 “who buys this car?” The person that likes to drive but wants or needs the space. I would love if it came with the 5L NA V8, I mean I understand the TT V6 but NO put the V-8 in it lol. But… i’ve always loved the GS, Lexus discontinued it but it was perfect for exactly THIS role. Like he said why strip down the flag ship model?

Which one of you is changing your name to "Mrs. Daisy"

Am I the only that thinks they should “High 5” when swapping drivers? Like tag team wrestlers?

Hate to nitpick even though this is a great review, presented very well … but … HUD stands for Head Up Display. That’s different from the term “Heads Up.” Military aircraft have HUD displays, or again, Head Up Displays. Think of it this way: The driver is the only one who can see the HUD and he/she only has one head! You can also check the owner’s manual. It agrees with me.

"Who else besides delivery drivers, would want this kind of car, who? tell me?" ...... :) "This has to be the for the guy, that wants the big flashy Lexus Sedan that wants to drive him self" Uh I would say- I'm One of them guys!! :) lol

I bet the turbo V6 will not have the longevity of the V8. turbos wear out engines faster I bought an used LS460F. I’m betting the V8 will hold their value longer.

Legit question. I’ve heard from many reviewers say how big and huge these are. But it’s 5 inches longer than a charger. 6ish inches shorter than a crown vic, and about the same as a Deville. So what’s so “huge” about this versus other full-size cars of the 2000’s? I bet if you factored in inflation since then, it wouldn’t be much different than a caddy of the days.

I hate to break it to you boys, since you seem out of touch in Utah, but CEOs drive black Tahoes and Yukons.

Good lord it’s already got “love marks” on it. Isn’t that a new car?

Back to chauffeur mode again!!!

If you get this Lexus fully speced out,, after tax title and license it will be almost 150 K.

Thanks for calling out just how loud the engine noise is. THAT’S TERRIBLE FOR THIS CAR.

Executive package for rear passenger. Lexus 🤔 think people be on their smartphone anyway. Let Save customer money 💰 🤑

It disappointing how they used the Lexus GS chassis on the Toyota mirai. Another thing is how they compromised the new LS interior on the back yes it looks sporty but who buys an executive sedan to drive spiritedly. They should have made the next gen GS look like this with a shorter wheel base then made the LS have a traditional large executive green house. Genesis for crying out loud is doing a better job

Yahoo jp has the engine for sale

You buy the regular package because we don’t have drivers

It’s the same Mark Levinson. There is one version and it’s optional.

Lots of whining but when you buy a Lexus you never worry

Gimmicks and gadgets that break after 4 years is the German way but the overall use quality, design and material of this Lexus is something the reviewers can't see and feel. A S class and a 7 series won't last 10 years.

CEOs and peasants but will are all humans.

it's nice car but it is pretty large(long) and don't need all of that. I am probably getting rid of mine in the future. I have a 2011 LS460

V8 in this car would be much better and worth the money

The reason they dont put a naturally aspirated v8 in a luxury grand touring sedan is because you want to feel effortless torque from the turbo rather than revving that v8 to 7000rpm to either merge or overtake someone on the freeway. If their has to be a v8 in a large sedan like this then it must come with turbos.

Paul stripper is the best

A car this large and expensive shouldn’t come in a Plebeian Plus spec.

Lol 50 or 60k car lol some lexus haters.

The sound is artificial and piped into the speakers.

Sorry. It needs the V8!

This car is for people with a lot of money so buying a base model is for someone trying to look richer than they are

It doesn’t sound good to me.It should be a V8!

Why? Because of the global marketing campaign. This demands the Chinese market wants these mini-limos. Fuck that!

The biggest failure of the LS is its exterior design. It looks too much like its cheaper ES siblings. A flagship should look stately and expansive. Look at any Bentley, or the S class, they stand out. This LS looks so ho hum.

Dude in the back is annoying, leave him out next time

over-glamping.

do these clowns know what they like or talking about.

Wow, those seats look cheap and you don't even get rear seat climate control? WTF? My Genesis GV70 is more luxurious.

That ugly predator mouth grill car will never be in my driveway. It looks hideous.

Executive sedans are more boring than minivans.

Lexus..... Zzzzz... Zzzzzz...
