I agree with you so much....I did purchase this as my forever car. I drove a 1963 Corvette split window coupe from age 16 to 37 and sold it for a myriad of reasons. No regrets. I went without a sports car until I was age 52 and decided to get back in the game. BMW M4 didn't do it. Jaguar F-Type R didn't do it. Mercedes AMG GLE 63S coupe didn't do it. So I took a year off after losing thousands every time I made a change. I've had the LC500 convertible for 2 years now and I am reasonably certain this will be it. Love the look, sound, comfort, performance, and reliability. (Dealer too). Its a remarkable car that I drive every chance I get. Its not super practical - but makes running that quick errand fun. I've taken a couple of longer trips and she cruises along at 100+ for hours without breaking a sweat. As Ferris Bueller would say: If you have the means....I highly recommend picking one up!

So incredibly underrated. One of those cars that people will talk about long after it goes out of production. "Why don't they make them like this anymore". Because no one buys one. Including me. Can't even afford the model version.

Search nationally, I've owned several Lexus sedans for a big discount from new. The only reason to buy new is if you are very specific about exterior/interior color combo or other options. There are 9 RC-F's nationally close enough to $40K, 4 of those are under 70K miles. GS-F's are starting to get under $60K. There are 32 LC coupes nationally under $70K. Bought my LC convertible new, but that's because I was very specific about exterior/interior color combo :)

With one of the best, and most reliable mass produced N/A V8's ever made, it deserves to be a classic, along with the ISF, RCF, GSF and GS500.

As an LC500 owner since 2018, I can honestly say you cannot buy a better car anywhere. In my many decades and having owned a bunch of those stupid "supercars" that every knob seems to lust after, it is now more apparent than ever that those cars are simply a waste of time, energy and money. When you've spent $500,000 on a car and it turns out to be a piece of dung, you really appreciate a fine automobile like the LC500. For almost five years my car has been trouble free, fun and enjoyable to drive and every single time I look at it, it makes my heart flutter. A child would want the LFA because that's what children are like. No person could live with the LFA as a daily driver. It's an out and out race car and we don't do our driving on the race track as a general rule. The infotainment system is awesome once you've learned VOICE COMMAND. In my four plus years, the track pad has been used less than ten times. Set up your personal preferences, read the OWNER'S MANUAL like an adult, and you're good to go. My car does 0-60 in 4.33 seconds and that's plenty fast. If you want anything faster, buy an electric car and then live with all the other problems. The LC500 is value for money. It's under priced by a lot. You simply drive it, maintain it as per the factory instructions and you'll never have a problem.

I was waiting for you to say "Just kidding..." about the leg room in the rear seats. There is ZERO space back there. It's strictly for groceries and a discount on your insurance because it - technically - has 4 seats. But I love the car. Traded an F-Type convertible for one. You can cruise around like a normal person and it's as quiet and comfortable as the LS. But put your foot in it and it's just glorious.

The key is to open up your legs as a rear passenger, and have your knees straddling the sides of the backrest of the front seat, and to sort of sink into the seat (rather than sitting straight up as if you are in an SUV). Doing both these things easily gives me sufficient headroom and legroom

Did not expect you to review this car! Another excellent watch. How is Lexus build quality and reliability, so far ahead of all other manufacturers? Not to mention their dealer service!

13:05 I know ive been singing praises about this car, but when i took delivery it was riddled with issues. Ive spoken to other owners and none of them have heard anything close to what i went through. Keep in mind my car was literally produced during the height of Covid Feb 22 and i watched lines be shuttered for the LC. Im still working on several nibbles, but its been rough. 2 rear subs, a rear sub interior trim piece, they had to re secure the rear suspension, the windows had to be tilted, i could go on but i wont. All that said i love it dearly and mechanically its perfect.

Gorgeous Timeless Car!! Love it!! Extra Bonus, Lexus Top Notch Reliability makes this car a future Timeless Collectors Item. Unlike certain unname "Luxury" cars that are notorious for its High Maintance Cost, Prone to breakdown with Insane repair Cost. Its No Contest For me, I'll take LC500 over any Mercedes, Bimmer or Audi...Especially used one...Lexus all the way...I dont want to deal with constant Convexity of Breakdown, repair cost of some of the other "Luxury" cars... LC500 - LOVE IT!! Dream Car😍😍😍😍😍

This was a car that pretty much passed me by until recently - but it seems like a car that does an awful lot right, and really deserves more love...

I love the LC500, especially with the Caramel Tan interior.

Agree, I have no idea why reviewers go on and on about how heavy it is - it's a GT, not a race car - It's only slightly heavier than the Aston Martin DB11 V8 - it's faster to 60, cheaper, and far more reliable, has better tech etc. Of course UK reviewers are never overly criticise AM products, even though they are often pretty terrible - at least this guy is fairly fair, even if he misquotes the hybrid performance for the V8 - important to note that the LC500 is a full second quicker to 60mph than the DB11 V8 - it is not going to be troubled by Golf R's!

Hi Damien, brilliant video and review. You nailed it with your observations on the LC500. I bought a one in green with ochre / tan interior for many of the same reasons - it’s different, it’s the top model, it is beautiful to look at and is beautifully built with the best interior design, ever. But the main reasons were that it was different, nobody buys them (why the f@£k not?) and it is fundamentally an ‘old school’ car. The LC500 doesn’t have stop start, it’s not even there to turn off, which in 2023 is unheard of. When I picked up mine when new, the safety features were switched off! If you want lane keep assist and sway warning etc, you have to turn them on! That’s how it should be. Being naturally aspirated you have to build revs to get power and from over 6000rpm it’s unreal. Having no turbos does lower the 0-60 time but who cares. The car is so much more than stats and anyone buying one likely doesn’t care; it is more than the sum of its parts. I have a few more things I think make the LC special to me: It bounces off the redline with a noise that makes you laugh out loud If the car is warm and you park up / turn it off, when you return and start the engine, it blips the throttle to 2700rpm for no reason and is totally unnecessary but is ace. You can’t start the car warm quietly! The rear tail lights at night are so cool and unique, they are worth £100k on their own No stop start or ‘nanny’ safety features Car will do over 30mpg on a long run or 6mpg when you thrash it Quick point about the trackpad / tech in the LC, I totally get your thoughts but will say that you do get used it. It’s part of that old school character as well and allows the amazing sweeping dash design. You will buy one. I know this because when you were driving it fast your tongue was sticking out, just like when you drove Jason’s GR Yaris 🤣 Take care and thanks for the work you put into your channel.

Very interesting, indeed! I remember JayEmm saying it was an Aston alternative; it seems like it's how a modern Aston should be rather than how they are. It's a proper gentleman's GT with a somewhat brutish sound. I also like that it's different and rare because few people bouught one. They are expensive new, but every alternative is more so. I'd patiently look for a used one spec'd as you would spec one new. The other good thing is that unlike its rivals its powertrain should last and shouldn't be needy and frighteningly expensive to maintain as it ages, although the interior tech will age more than most. I guess that its weight means suspension components will be what ends up needing to be replaced the most, but that is the case for all modern GT cars. Thank you for this truly excellent review!

This is a lovely car, but the weight is huge and really hampers the performance...Plus that haptic control pad would drive me nuts! 😤🤬 But a great vid and nice to see this interesting motor Damian. 👍🏻

If you want raw performance you have about a hundred different options. Every other car with the same horsepower makes performance it's excessively heavy priority, the LC might just be the only car in it's class that looks to strike a balance between performance, luxury and bulletproof reliability

A gem. The RC GT3 version is turning heads in IMSA endurance competition, proving the concept and winning over the likes of Porsche, Ferrari and other renowned marques. I lust after one of these, I’ll snatch a good one off lease return in time like the 03 GS350 I picked up for the price of a new Celica with barely 50 k miles and still under full warranty. One of the prettiest sedans and she’ll lift up the skirts and fly when needed. An hour at 135 across a desert hooked up with a ‘vette and an m class bimmer with the stereo blasting and the car cruising along like it was nothing, the wife asked how fast we were going- oh, a hundred or so…

first time watching this, Ur a Baller with a Rocking Rolex ! Wow, Congrats

Appreciate it!

Is he kidding about the “roomy” back seats???!!!

Great review. Thanks. Lexus loaned one to me for a few days. The space in the rear seats is not good if the driver / front passenger need to have the front seats all the way back. Also, with the interior, there is too much Alcantara- personally don’t like the material- and interior colour options are limited. Sometimes I found it difficult to judge the width of the car. Otherwise I agree with many of the review’s positive comments.

As an owner of a 2018 performance pack version, I love it.

Amazing! Congrats

Gorgeous car, looks even better in real life 👍🚘😎

The other cars you mentioned will never last the years the Lexus will ! This is a GT cruiser with more than enough power to get you in trouble. The V8 N /A engine is ported and direct injection so no carbon build up on other lesser direct injection. I used to own a 911 and no looked at the car 😂 when I bought my 2022 everyone driving by gave the car the thumbs up ❤Track pad is awsome and no finger prints on the can’t touch screen, ya I never get reviews because I don’t agree 😂😂😂, junk, sad

The back seats do not have much space? If you move the forward seats a bit forward, how much space do you have in the front which should be comfortable for the back people as well?

The LC 500 is a great car. I wish I could own one.

I am not a Lexus fan. This does not mean that I don’t like Lexus; they make great high quality cars. But, it is not for me. However, as always, I loved watching the video and this is down to the enthusiasm of Damian

It really is!

100% PURE PERFECTION…… THERE REALLY IS NO ARGUMENT.

Damian, what did you make of the gearbox - does one use all 10 ratios (sounds like too many?)??

I have an LC 500 and there is no way on earth that you were going to fit anybody in that backseat unless they were an amputee

I thought he was going to end the sentence with "if he has no legs"

I want a lc500. Im currently daily driving a Supra. I’ll probably get one when I retire in 5 years, as a gift to myself.

that sund is epic- im not fussed about it being a bit underpowered, means you ge to enjoy more of that sound and more of the revs!

Great review!! Please now get some more demo cars in to review!!

As an FYI, I've just noticed the 2024 LC500 will have a number of updates including a 12.3 inch touch screen and deletion of the touch pad.

Bad choice, ruined a classic interior with a bolted on iPad just to silence critics who only drive the car for a few days. Us long term owners think it’s fine. Takes a while to get used to, but no fingerprints to clean daily.

I was lucky enough to be drive behind one of these the other day in red and it was beautiful, but it's seemed really big on the road

Stunning car. A Japanese beauty for the car connoisseur who wants to stand out from the norm.

LEXUS 👌🏻😎 FIRST CLASS QUALITY LEXUS LC ❤️👍🏻 EMOTIONS

It's a "State of the Art", underrated, underestimated Jewelry nowaday cars. Admiring this one as LC500h, while I am driving another Lexus Hybrid. You have to own one to understand the fine texture of a desirable, eficient dreamcar.

Interesting and different episode. Perhaps one of these would make a good daily and you could use the GT3 Touring a bit more sparingly?

Damn they designed a stunning set of wheels and laid the car over them with a fantastic stance👍
