"The seat coolers are so loud you can't hear yourself think." Lexus knows this and they've already included a solution: the LC500 has an onboard sound generator that drowns out the noise of the seat coolers. The sound generator is activated by a pedal under your right foot.

However considering it's only $100,000 I don't considered that a fault. The Gulia Quadrifoglio is every thing this car tries to be in terms of comfort, performance, symbiotic connection and responsiveness experience. The Lexus is however simply more luxurious.

I also bought the 2018 V8 LC500 based on being impressed by goose's last review and test driving it. Although the LC will at times frustrate you, stepping into any other GT car since, has made me realise how astonishingly good it is. It is a complete car which does bring an emotional connection with the driver. The BMW 8-series feels cheap inside, Aston Martin Vantage feels like a garbage can and the engine has no character, merc S class coupe is sterile and again no character. I actually don't mind the infotainment system on the LC. It is super quick to use when used to it. Also the TC can be completely defeated with no warnings flashing to annoy you which helps in the "fun" department. I keep trying to sell it and move on to something else (I usually change weekend cars every year) but I simply can't

We didn’t want a Mustang because it felt like a toy in the interior. We didn’t want a Maserati, an Audi or a Mercedes because we wanted something reliable, but unique. This Lexus is the only car on the market that makes you feel special, and is also confidence inspiring because it’s reliable. If you want to put 10,000kms on it per year, we know it will be fine; we don’t have to treat this car like a supercar. This car is absolutely perfect for us. We also have a Highlander, but we’ve put more KMs on the Lexus than the Toyota and we don’t cringe at the thought of doing so.

Good video. One thing though, to understand what this car is you have to look at it with fresh eyes. What it is , is a beautiful ,well built, comfortable, reliable cruiser and when you want or need it has enough power to satifly for normal public roads. If your looking for a race car then get yourself a race car, if your looking for alot of space get a SUV/Truck . But if you want to feel true luxury, if you want to have beautiful craftsmanship get the Lexus. Lexus has a special feeling that makes you smile even though you know its not the fastest, it doesn't matter because people are always looking.

Dude, if you can't have fun in this car, you can't have fun in any car. Lexus didn't spend all that time on engineering, design, performance and reliability so you wouldn't have fun. This machine exudes FUN at every level. If you want an 800 h.p. race car, don't buy this automobile. It does 0-60 in 4.4 seconds and that isn't slow, it's just not as fast as a Veyron costing $2 million dollars. As a lucky guy who owns one of these magnificent machines, I can tell you flat out that it's a car built for public roads and will do anything you want it to do except stupid stuff which usually results in death. I hate to break it to you but you are not a professional race car driver and you're not driving at LeMans. So, don't be a dipshit and tell us you can't have fun in a LC500. That simply isn't true. It's as fun as fun gets without getting naked.

The shoot when jack is accelerating and you also have the tach visible is amazing! Art! Also such a great car, such a great engine. The design is gorgeous. Truly something BMW could learn from. One of the few great Lexus left. A manual option would be perfect but I'm realistic. Somewhat. Also Lexus, get a damn touch screen and Android Auto already.

The horrible track pad is one such example, so too is that of the small trunk and non-folding rear seats!

My 70-year old Aunt bought one of these, but the convertible. A few months after she bought it she went on vacation abroad and pretty much said have fun with it while I'm away. With only 35 miles on the ODO when I first fired it up, it was a week to remember. The first time I took it out I expected to get bored with it after an hour, bring it back, and not drive it again. I literally could not stop myself from wanting to drive it more. I took it on backroads, through the city, pretty much everywhere. This car attracts attention like you wouldn't believe. I had a guy in a Hurrican practically break his neck as I drove past him. It literally made my day. I had no trouble getting up the next day because I knew I'd get to drive it again. Long story short, by the time my Aunt returned the car had nearly 1000 miles on it, and somehow months later, the car still only has about that same milage on it that I was responsible for. I can't believe she hasn't put 5k on it already given how insanely good it is to drive. I know if it were mine it would have at least that much if not way, way more.
@edmundcharles52786 ай бұрын
well in deference to your Aunt, she probably just dives her LC 500 as needed every day, she does not 'joy ride' the vehicle, so maybe you will one day inherit a nice low-milage LC 500.
