"Can you believe THIS is a Lexus". Well, given that Lexus has built one of the most desirable supercars in existence (LFA), yes I can.

Good review! I test drove one of these a few weeks back and was blown away by how much fun and how much character Lexus has instilled in the LC500. It's comfortable, well built and luxurious like a Lexus but it sounds and revs out like a fire-breathing muscle car. By the way, your microphone really captured the sounds this car makes better than most other reviews i have watched. Nice work!

Best car of 2017. Its the perfect Luxury sport coupe... it comes off as an exotic car without the exotic car price. That interior is very exquisite. LEXUS INFORM IS NOT BAD. I have used it and I have learned it in a few seconds it just like using a computer. Reviewers are over doing when they are complaining about the Lexus infotainment. Also please stop being shocked that this is a Lexus... the V10 LFA ? The RCF looks much meaner then this. The 2008 ISF was just as badass as this car ( not look wise ) and the latest GSF is sweet too. Lexus is not new to this.

After using every system on the market, Enform is well behind the competition in usability. Not in learning the system (that's easy) but in controlling and getting what you want out of it in an efficient manner. It takes far more attention to access even commonly-used features compared to other systems.

Driving Sports TV Lexus infotainment isn't the best but it also doesn't deserve the level of derogatory it gets on the internet by reviewers. It's just different from the competition which if Lexus copied, they would probably be criticized just as heavily.

The new Ls 500 infotainment system has hand recognition meaning u can type the letters or numbers. But to be honest there's no infotainment system that isn't distracting even a touch screen which in my opinion is the best option. I have been in several bmws and even when selecting basic functions with the I drive jog dial is distracting cause your eyes aren't on the road. I really don't get when some reviewers try to criticise some infotainment systems while praising others when they all suffer from the same issues apart from touch screens like what's on the new range rover Velar. The new range rover Velar in my opinion has the best infotainment system out now. A touch screen saves more time and won't distract u as much from the road. That's my personal experience, I'm not a fan of any system that isn't touch sensitive on the screen like smart phones.

Another reviewer who has REFUSED to spend any time at all learning the ENFORM program. They all jump the gun and assume the Lexus engineers are a bunch of Bozos and know nothing about computers. WRONG!! The entire ENFORM program is wonderful but you have to spend some time learning it. If you don't do that, you've missed the whole point about owning and driving such a great car. I've had my LC 500 just over two months and have spent time with the system. I'm still not 100% but I'm getting there. Most of the settings you actually do in the "Setup". Anything else you need to do you can do with VOICE COMMANDS or buttons on the steering wheel and you never have to take your eyes off the road. The LC 500 is quite possibly the nicest car available on the market. It's a work of art and a joy to drive. It's fairly economical....considering and it is a Toyota at heart so you know you've got excellent reliability. If you actually go drive this car and don't fall in love with it immediately, I would be shocked!!!

You are dead wrong on the "Enform" system. The fact is you didn't do your homework and learn how to use it. Had you done so, you would have run the "SETUP" and selected your preferences. By doing this, 90% of the touchpad is eliminated. The touchpad can be set for sensitivity. Owners will....or should....spend some time learning the VOICE COMMAND portion of the system. Once you know how to do this properly, you almost never use the touchpad. The only item you'll need to program is the CLIMATE but if you select AUTO, the seats, AC, heat etc. will take care of themselves. I've had my LC500 for just over a year. It is so well thought out and so well made it blows EVERY OTHER CAR out of the water. As a reviewer, we all know you only get a limited time with the car but don't ruin it for other people by saying things that aren't true. I've watched several different reviews. One guy said you can't change the radio station while the car is moving. That's how stupid and lazy people can be. At $100k, this car is a bargain. It's better than anything made in Germany or the U.K. You will spend little or no time at the dealers for repairs as opposed to those other high dollar cars. As good as this car looks on screen, it's even more impressive in person.

@@drivingsports I had Lexus install Apple Car Play when it first became available. I never use it because ENFORM works so well. But, that's because I learned VOICE COMMAND. For me, maybe not everyone, it's much easier to press one button and then say "RADIO, AM 710" that fiddling with a TOUCH SCREEN or any other type of pointer. Or, press a button and say "Turn on AC" or "Find a pizza restaurant" or "call my wife" or "Play The Eagles Hotel California". It does it all and works perfectly. I haver have to take my eyes off the road. It's just a personal choice but it's hard to understand why anyone would not want to do the easiest thing possible. As for criticizing because "we care", I just don't think that is fair. Lexus allowed you to drive their car and then give an honest opinion. How can you say you did that? An honest opinion about ENFORM would have been if you said you read the instructions, learned VOICE COMMAND and it didn't work or that you preferred to mess around with the trackpad because VOICE COMMAND didn't work. Not doing your part was unfair, bro'. There really is no other car that compares to the LC 500 when you consider the whole package. It's literally a perfect machine and so well built that it isn't going to cost the owner an arm and leg in repairs as do German...and other...expensive cars.

Standard review, must hate on something. Oh I forgot, yea the info sytstem sucks. There I will be accepted by my peers. Real world buyers on the other hand. I got used to it in 2 days.

The navigation legitimately trails behind all other cars in this class. Getting used to it doesn’t change that fact.

@@drivingsports who sets the standards? Buyers? Reviewers? Ansewer neither. It is subjective to the design engineers. One may not like it. That doesn't really mean anything. People didn't like seat belts. How did that turn out. Is it effective, yes. Is it useful and does it function reliably and thoroughly, yes, yes, and yes again. Perhaps we can respectfully disagree. I've used them all. They all have a break in periods from a buyers perspective. From a reviewer's perspective uniqueness doesn't automatically equate to lacking or fallen behind, inferior or some would sucks. Buyers at this price point are very loyal across the industry. Lexus buyers are familiar with this system. Just as BMW, MB buyers are with their's. Designer's don't follow trends. They set them and stick by them. Spindle grill ring a bell. Did Lexus scrap it? I'm going to tell you a secret that very few people know. Lexus's designer's enjoy giving the world the proverbial "middle finger" and to those that would say change that. 30 years on and Lexus history is well established and littered with awards in countless categories. A global brand that has sold millions of vechicles. Name 1 other luxury car company that was born in the last 30 years thats done the same......I'll wait.

Randy Watson right now the $20,000 Toyota Corolla has a better nav system than the $100,000 LC (updated graphics and added Apple CarPlay.) You’re honestly okay with that?

@@drivingsports This statement just proves your uninformed. What reviewer pulled that opinion out of their ass. Like I said. I stated my opinion. We disagree. No one sets the rules about what info/nav systems do or how they should work. When the world gets a "High Council " overlord on nav/info systems I'm sure you"ll be on it. Telling Lexus they should be like everyone else. Lexus buyers at this price don't mind I guess. The LC500 is selling quite well.

I would definitely buy this car if the starting price is around $75K, same as the Audi RS5. I like the quality and reliability is way much better but Audi is more fun to drive.

I test drove the LC 500 today and I can tell you that for $100k and 4 seats, I was NOT impressed. Why? 1) Poor resale value 2) No sunroof 3) I hate the Lexus computer Automatic Trans shifter because it physically does not move. Also to park, you have to visually find the P button in the console. Then to put it into drive, I can't feel the D, I have to visually see on the dash that I moved it into P and it's a weird movement in which I have to move the lever left then move it down. 4) No Apple Carplay. 5) If you're gonna have 4 seats, my head should not be hitting the back window. 6) Weird that there's 2 color stitching 7) Cupholder with a water bottle blocks a/c controls 8) Radar detector cord must be long and drag all the way back to the cigarette jack in the center console, just in front of the back seats. 9) No flat bottom steering wheel 10) Getting out of the back seat was almost impossible and I'm 47.

I disagree with both of you while I can agree this isn't the best value, it is a car that is of it's design, the interior options are the best looking interior color options ever in my opinion, better than a rolls Royce , it's a luxury touring AND SPORTS coupe it doesn't need any more power than it has, and it's one of a kind body and design is out of concepts people have begged for , for years, at 100k it's cheaper than anybody ever thought these style of cars would be, the corvette is a very real bang for your buck, however, this car offers things a Corvette or Porsche 911 never will and in that respect it earns a spot as top priority in new cars I would actually buy, I can get a used 911 I can get any year used corvette, this car is truly something so speacial and ofcourse unique to itself that, there is no replacement there is no second best , if I want this car and I do, it's this car and only this car that will fill that speacial spot in the garage set aside specifically for an lc500 it's like the love of my car life, it can't be substituted for anything else and that's something NO CAR COMPANY CAN DO AT ALL THESE DAYS EVERYTHING IS A COPY EVERYTHING IS NEW ENGINEERING WITH SOME NEW BODY KITS!!!!!, this despite having many faults on paper is a 100k$ car that offers everything i could ever ask for in a daily driver, with the looks of a 400k LFA super car which despite being an amazing track car is complete un necassary as a daily driver, track day car wippee, for a daily driver this car is top of the pyramid Dynamics

mrpmj00 Still waiting for an answer. How can you claim your #1 dislike is the poor resale value on a brand new model that most people have never seen? Lexus are one of best cars for holding value, even a 10 year old SC 430, a horrible car, is selling for over $25K. Wow the rear seat in this sports coupe is cramped, what a shocker!
