Buy one with an engine that matches its looks, get the V8 🤩

[@djpierre4613]

The v8 is almost double(!) the price in our country(NL). Also, fuel is $7,50 per gallon. So this depends where you live I guess..

[@CarsofGlasgow]

@@djpierre4613so true about where you live

[@joemama069]

@@djpierre4613 Do you guys need to pay additional taxes on cars that are purely powered by ICEs? But yeah, with the fuel prices in western Europe, even the LC500h is kind of expensive to fill up, depending on how much you drive.

[@karlheinzneugebauer]

@@djpierre4613Fuel consumption aside. 0-100km/h LC500 V8: 5 seconds LC500h V6: 5 seconds

[@user-mw3oc4it7t]

If I have the money, I would buy a V8 for showcase and buy a hybrid for driving lol

[@BlackoutLC500]

Lc500 is one of the best looking car on the market...

[@GTGarageTalk]

Indeed

[@shawnm2597]

I Agree, don't buy the hybrid version, just go for the V8 version and then you can enjoy it from the outside AND the inside while driving it.

[@toms_garage]

Great video! I love how you flipped the script

[@GTGarageTalk]

Glad you liked it!

[@SiyabongaMalinga]

Man first time in your channel... I seriously came here because I was hoping you were going to give me a reason not to buy this since I love it so much. But such a great review not because you told me what I love hearing but because of your entertaining review.

[@GTGarageTalk]

Thanks for watching.

[@chrisdunne1837]

That white and blue interior is beautiful

[@roger9280]

Totally agree with your test and comments. Have the same one in same liquid platinium grey and love it. Not the V8 but still a great car. Use it to drive in town in perfect confort but also for long trips including high speed on the German autobahn. 240km/h easy last summer when I was in Germany. Feels very safe, looks great. Car is wide so not that easy in my underground parking. If you have the opportunity try one.

[@user-kk3qg5el1m]

You are so lucky, it’s a beautiful car, I would choose one of these over a corvette any day. It’s sporty and it’s more comfortable than a corvette.

[@haduong5828]

I love it. But wish to afford just have one as my dream. Thanks for the video

[@MyGoogi]

Gorgeous and great car 😍 i drove the V8 sport plus version with rear wheels steering and the driving dynamics is even better than it's german competitors.

[@wkwan3161]

Amazing exterior and interior. Wheels look awesome too

[@GTGarageTalk]

Yup

[@JohnCallahan360]

We have His and Hers LC 500's She Coupe and He Convertable and they are the most amazing LUXURY Sports Coup on the market. Best sound of any V8 other than maybe the SVR's. While the V6 Hybrid makes sense.....there is nothing like the V8...this will be a collector

[@GTGarageTalk]

That’s awesome.

[@idread3523]

The woman gets the convertible..you're backwards. but good income I can see 😃

[@nairbyad7188]

you're in raleigh

[@unions100]

Your bang on with your review and thank you very much absolute amazing car, and yes, I would say one of the best looking cars today in the world, for me anyway❤ and also not to mention the Lexus reliability ❤❤❤

[@GTGarageTalk]

Thanks for watching.

[@Kathy-22]

Sexy car 😍

[@user-zw3kp7uo6n]

Don't buy one? Why? Elegant style and the roar of a V8 sound!

[@GTGarageTalk]

I don't want ONE, I want multiple...

[@user-zw3kp7uo6n]

@@GTGarageTalk That's what you meant. I understand

[@triplep6062]

Beautiful car...nice color combination without the carbon roof!

[@toms_garage]

Do you know what I just realised! The mode selector is on your right side and it’s on my left in my car - for sport to sport + mode etc

[@GTGarageTalk]

Interesting.

[@JustMe-hf3wt]

Freakin' gorgeous and that nautical interior is just stunning. Dont mind the silver exterior either for it highlights the car's muscular stance. In an ideal world I would get the convertible though.

[@daviddarmanin2188]

We are paying $2.00 a litre for fuel in Australia, which is ridiculous! But being a car enthusiast and enjoying driving the last of the great quality V8 cars it’s worth the expense. PS have a second daily fuel efficiency car for every day use 😊

[@heartbind]

take a shower

[@sidneyshaw9205]

Brooooo your fuel is expensive.

[@MercOne]

Beautiful specification.

[@GTGarageTalk]

👍🏼

Dude you can’t do a review of this car in hat & hoodie…put on a golf polo and a pair of sunglasses

[@GTGarageTalk]

😂

If taking a shower floats your boat mate, good luck to you 😊

[@KON4444]

So, im V close to trading my 300 H F sport for this - yeah or nay?

when i see "don't buy one", i know the guy will tell u to buy one 😆

[@GTGarageTalk]

Look closely

[@onikai7055]

One of the best and underrated cars ever and it’s better than its German counterparts and nothing can convince me otherwise.

I wonder if it’s possible to swap my current black interior to this in my LC500…😢

[@GTGarageTalk]

Isn’t it beautiful???

[@jankralik533]

what car colour is? titan or iridium sonic? one mistake in your description: 2004 Lexus LC 500h Specs: 2024

[@GTGarageTalk]

Iridium Sonic. Thanks for catching that.

[@roger9280]

Its sonic silver

[@jml9550]

Looks like Atomic Silver. I have the same color on my ES350. I am now looking for a low mileage 2-3YO LC500h, hopefully I can find one in white or silver at $70k……

[@daviscutting8045]

Cost a fortune, and weighs a ton. It’s for people that never owned a Jaguar.

[@chrisdunne1837]

That’s a great color

[@GTGarageTalk]

I know, right?!?

[@Daryl-S]

Hahaha yes it looks just divine!

[@kristijan933]

I wish they didnt put backseats at all

[@GTGarageTalk]

🤷🏼‍♂️

[@user-ww5oc9bh1e]

Mr GT mentioned the LC500 is better than the LFA. The LC500 is amazing but not in the same class as the LFA. The LFA may be older but they now sell for more than 1 mil. There are several reasons why the LFA will increase in value and the LC500 will sadly depreciate until it becomes a classic way off in the future. If you want the perfect GT the LC500 cannot be beaten as its reliability will beat any other maker.

[@thijs5931]

These 500h are like 50k cheaper then the 5.0 v8 in my country. Damn CO2 taxes...

[@christopherstreet2214]

I want one

Same.

[@Mabeylater293]

FYI. We don’t cars about engine noise. In fact the less of it the better. I handsomely for the Mark Levinson and expect no competition from engine racket inside our cabin. If I wanted engine noise invading my cabin, I’d buy a ford pinto.

Don't buy one, buy two. Nice clickbait by the way.
