Should you buy a used Lexus LC500? An owner and car enthusiast perspective. 

This would be a good video that would benefit those who are trying to choose between 3 very different cars.

This video would be good to know about maintenance cost between them.

My buddy has a 2017 GTR. Great comparison between my 2018 LC.

Do it

I know the R&D is crazy expensive for carb legal performance parts. However, I honestly believe that companies like Magnuson missed a golden opportunity with Toyota/Lexus vehicles. They would have made a killing with a SC Kit since many vehicles share engine platforms. The Magnuson SC KIT for the 5.7 Tundra is still a sought after kit that is carb legal

The 2024 doesn’t have it anymore. Which is why I’m buying a used one. I have zero problems using the touch pad

😂 Everytime I drive out to North Dallas I see a few. It’s like unicorn spotting. Haha

But…. I’ve never seen another LC with any mods in person. They are always stock.

I am on my way to Houston to pick up my 2024 LC500 Inspiration series convertible (polar white satin w/deep blue interior) . Maybe you'll see my unicorn. 😊

Toyota headquarters. They’re employee cars.

Been living in europe for 3 years and just saw ine yesterday... -_- in north america they are also extremely rare. Gotta say its a classy fucken whip in person. Not too much a fan of the japs (imo bang for buck the germans slap them to shit) but this thing is something else.😮‍💨

@@thomaslee6079 absolutely. Some of my earlier videos discuss those topics. Thank you for watching! More coming!

22” Ferrada FR4’s and RSR drop springs.

It’s hard to tell since I put the wheels and springs on at about the same time. Definitely noticeably rougher but not bad.

I’ll make a side by side and driving experience video with the LC and GTR.

Thank you! I don’t believe there is, but that needs to change. I might have to start one. Haha

Btw… congratulations on your new LC!

@@Magmade_ right! we might need to be the founding members.

@@Magmade_ thank you.

RSR Down Springs

Yessir!

Yes it does.

I feel ya. Haha

The LC as a daily is really nice.

Same dilemma. My brain wants the LC, but my heart wants the GTR.

@@Magmade_ quick question besides the suspension issue you have would you buy a lc500 2017 lc 15k miles full trd aero and trd rims for 52k with no warranty ? Or if you had an option for warranty would you get it . Thank you

@@lmmedia9694 52k is very cheap! I would make sure the title is clean. If you like the rim and aero then thats a great deal. I personally bought the best deal LC I could find at the time with 20" wheels because I knew my plan for this car before I bought it. Check the CarFax. If it has good history then I would not be worried about the warranty. Mine was a one owner, full maintenance history so I bought mine out of warranty. Its a Lexus.. it will last forever!

@@Magmade_ I’m in Japan so currently they are really cheap cause the yen rate . They are clens title and performance s package . I’m thinking the same I heard the 20 ride better

I used to say the same thing. Just keep pushing yourself.

I just saw one with 56k miles for $59k. In a few years i bet you might be able to find a high mileage in the $40k range.

There is currently not supercharger or turbo available for the LC… but nitrous? 🤔

I understand your concern and I can assure you my eyes are on the road. I mix my mounted GoPro and handheld shots. Im extremely careful with my driving and vigilant of my surroundings. Unfortunately I pass more people with heads down and staring down at their phones on daily basis. That pisses me off.
