Besides the LFA, I truly believe the LC500 is the pinnacle for pinnacle. If you’ve ever sat in one and test drove it, you’d know what I mean. It is a bit slow compared to the competition, but 0-60’s and 1/4 miles is not what the LC is for. It’s a monster of a GT car - one of those that you crush hundreds of miles in WHILE in comfort. I want one SO bad.

What really bothers me is how nearly everyone who's actually driven this car absolutely talks about how incredible it is, yet thousands of internet idiots will write it off because they don't want to admit how good it is. It makes cars like the Mercedes SL53 obsolete, which is arguably an inferior car in every aspect yet costs $65k more. People are going to regret not buying this car soon

Also it's just super comfortable, very well built, a piece of art, just not that fast (not slow either).

My favourite colour is blue, but I never really liked the Blue Mica of this car. It is starting to grow on me now and I find it beautiful. The white interior is a great colour contrast with the blue. It is a stunning car. 🔥🔥🔥

[@jimmy-buffett]

I had a '21 in the Nightfall Blue Mica, now I have a '24 in the Ultrasonic Blue. It is worlds better. The dark blue was amazing in perfect light and too dark in all other light. The new blue is amazing in most light. I took photos of my two cars about 20 seconds apart in the same light, the difference is huge. If you haven't seen one yet, google for "lc500 ultrasonic blue". Enjoy 🙂

[@galaxiedance3135]

I loved buying my Lexus... knowing that there'll never be any issues with it and it never had any issues at all. They asked me about extra warranty when i bought it, I said If you're telling me that this car needs extra warranty, then I'll stand up and walk away from this deal right now. I strictly refused the warranty and also told them that I do not want absolutely anything else that You're trying to sell me. Lets just sign the paper and call it a day. That's the only thing I can't stand with dealerships. One day I'll just walk out because of being asked so much and tell them, if you want my business after this, then knock another $1000 off the price before I buy one at another dealership because I will most definitely head to another one. Anyway... Lexus is Great!

[@mitchwaters]

I'm one hundred percent with you right there, buddy. I actually questioned myself, thinking that maybe I should have bought the tire & wheel package. But in the end, I didn't buy any packages. This will be my 10th Lexus that I purchased over the years and I have never bought any of their packages. They wanted an additional 16K for 3 years of extended warranty. Then the finance person got mad when I turned it down. My salesman also said that if I get any package, make sure I get the tire & wheel package. I ended up getting nothing! LC 500 baby!

[@robertwilkinson3990]

Here’s the deal, this car is fun beautiful relatively affordable, when comparing it to its competitors. But to me the best attribute with this car is the cost of ownership. It is a “fraction” compared to its competitors. Dependability is the hallmark of the Lexus brand, and this car is no exception. Smart money purchase in my opinion. Unless you’re a fan of extravagant initial cost, maintenance, and repairs. 😂

Can't wait to swap my RCF for one of these in the coming months. Same engine but an entirely different experience. The LC's comfort is near flawless and even more so when you replace the stock runflat tires. I've driven the BMW M850i and LC. The M850i is a Turbo AWD V8 that's heavier and a bit quicker. Nonetheless, for a NA V8 the LC has the perfect balance of performance and luxury at a decent price point.
