My good friend just got the 2024 911. Amazing car, but for whatever the reason it reminds me of one of those nice homes you see in a big American a suburbs, looking like everything else on the road. The LC500 is bespoke, like a one off masterpiece that’s not replicated.

Génial 🎉

Just buy what you like the most. Go with your gut, don’t make compromises you’ll have to live with every day you drive it.

I love this car. But I think Honda could definitely do a better job with the radio.

Very helpful. Thank you madala 🙏

Most people do less than 4k per year on their performance cars, 2k seems resonable

Japanese>German engineering any day

I am a big fan of a van. I have owned two Previas and two Siennas from Toyota in the past. They are practical, easy to drive, and seats 8 people easily. They are also good cargo haulers. When I pick up or bring friends or relatives to the airport, I go there with a van to fit both passengers and luggage. Even for long drives, a van is comfortable. Not to mention fuel economy you get from them. Thanks for highlighting these benefits.

there’s a special place in my heart for all you GX lovers

$50k for a base Sienna, $53k for Odyssey, $55k for Pacifica in Canada. No thanks.

@AutomotivePress, Does your wife’s RAV4 have AWD? Thank you.

Nice vehicle ... but the design is too sporty.. And the roofline is way too low.. If Toyota would have taken a page from the Landcruiser and made the Signia with about a 3 to 4 inch higher roofline and more a boxy design - this would have been a very very nice vehicle.. Especially this higher roofline design would be better for the American market where Americans are taller and like (and need) more cabin room..

Wrong AF! No engine manufacturer or car manufacturer has said change oil every 3000 miles in the last 20 years. Ever hear of dry start? Should have nothing to do with how long you want to keep your car but rather how many miles are on the car. Detergents break down and that is totally dependent on how dirty the engine is. Some cars that have high mileage need oil changed closer to 2k miles where newer vehicles can easily go 10k miles. So, oil change intervals are totally dependent on internal conditions and should have nothing to do with how long you plan on keeping it!

Valuable facts! 👍

I'm glad that Toyota has the budget to create the next gen super car as the LF-A did back then. In California, their dealerships are still quite empty unless you want to buy their trucks. 😄

You didnt let him speak 😂

Thanks for this helpful video. 😊

David, Toyota recently announced a 20% increase in Sienna production for 2025. That should reduce the size of the waiting lists by approximately..... 20%.😉 With their ongoing success in the minivan market, I cannot understand why Toyota does not take the next step and bring their line of HiAce vans to North America.

Ultimate road trip vehicle 😎

Nice but has a cvt and so slow. I'll stick with the turbo Cx5 6 speed auto.

7 minute mark. Please explain the passenger seat turned sideways and hanging outside the door. Is that an option or an aftermarket seat?

Professor... You may be right about all Novelties.... Like a car you stretched for, a second home, and other "stuff". The old sayng goes...."Novelties Always wear off , generally after 90 days but by 6 months. You are making excellent points, taking the emotions out of the process as best You Can. It's the main reason why Car Dealers/ Salesman want you Come on In and we can talk about the deal. Once you see what you like in the Showroom, They have set The Hook into The Fish's Mouth... I can't speak for the entire Country, but in the NY Metro area, the recent stats indicate that 80% of all cars are being Leased. Perhaps that second or third car may be older models that you paid off and will keep (like my wife and I) and maintain it with no more Financing on it. With the "explosion" of newness from car makers with New Hybrid and PHEV and ICE cars coming out, the technology is fast and changing on the Fly. This is a very Good Video making very valid points for consideration. Once you get to that showroom, your Heart will overcome your brain for most folks... 😊

My only issue is ground clearance. Suv gives you ease of mind.

The lights look like they are from a BMW, most of it going to be BMW ! supra is dead, they need to stop milking the name, if they are making a supra it need to be GT car like the iV the LC base would make a good supra and that is what they should have done ! take the LC + FT-1 concept body = Supra ! not the BMW Z8 FT-1 kit car !

I would pick RC 😊

yes gaps are underrated factor in choosing between minivans vs suv’s

Did you see the junky gx they replaced this beauty with

The sienna is very small it does not allow to put more luggage than the Alphard

Why Japan have so many minivans?

I rather buy the Alphard than the sienna.

Why don’t they bring the Alphard to the US? That is the best looking minivan.

Not really in the same price range or even car category (gt vs sports). Depends what's important in a car to you. Engine sound: LC. Comfort: LC: Handling: 911. Unique: LC. Interior: LC. Resale: 911, though the LC will very likely increase in the future and overtake a low end 911 due to rarity, especially when they stop producing the LC. Cost to maintain: LC. Speed: 911. Tech: LC. Road trips: LC. Storage: Tie. Will get strangers bothering you at gas stations: LC. Looks: Depends on color choice/spec. The best spec'd LC blows away any 911 Carrera

Those who know, know. Love the comfort and versatility of my Honda Odyssey and looking forward to taking delivery of a Toyota Sienna soon.

Buy the Yamato battleship model.. its huge..

I do 10k miles full synthetic oil and filter changes and engines are great with no increased oil consumption. '88 Saab 900t 2.0 for 80k miles. '03 Mazda MPV 3.0 for 110k miles. '15 VW Sportwagon 1.8 for 73k and counting. Also, I don't drive high rpms until warmed up and i do Italian tuneups..lol Works for me. Cheers

I wish they bring this to the Philippines

All Minivans safety ratings are drastically reduced in the recent tests of IIHS.

Wth u talking about. I got 4k off a honda odessey. This crap only applies to sienna cuz hybrid awd

Hope atoyota Au will bring this Sienna over to Australia. The Kia Carnival is making a killing here at the moment it basically has no competition. I'll stick to my Vellfire Hybrid for the now.

2024's are next

You really need to start filming in 4k, would add some much more value to your fantastic videos!

Mini vans are amazing, they are so big and they are so versatile . Every brand of mini van is selling like mad

🤩

Which address is this at?

The problem is they offer vans these days as only cars. Vans used to come in varieties like Mitsubishi Delica and Toyota Supercustom which were off-roaders. Yes you didn’t get those in the U.S. but there was vans such as the Volkswagen Microbus, Chevrolet Corvair Greenbriar, Ford Falcon, and Dodge A100. Well I get it that they had to make a space for selling SUVs for off roading. I wish vans was still made for off-roading too.

We rarely drive our 2005 Odyssey anymore but keep it around purely for those occasions when we need the hauling capacity. With all the rear seats out it is amazing how much can be fit back there. More even than a short bed pickup truck. No need to secure the load or worry about weather.

I bought the 2024 model about a month ago , and feels right on power , also keep in mind ny daily driver is a 2011 Honda Accord with a 2.4 and I definitely like it

I change before & after this interview

You can buy a new Sienna much quicker in the U.S. but you will be paying a 10% dealer markup for the privilege.
