The LC 500 is easily worth 100k, especially if you plan to keep it forever. You get excellent Lexus build quality and reliability from a car that can be daily driven. This thing will still be on the road well past 100k miles. Its a very good looking car that you don't see around every corner (like a modern day LFA). Remember people this is a luxury GT and not a sports/track car. Definitely my ultimate dream car!

@PolishGator 7 ай бұрын

If you do the research on the LC500, you will realize it is worth every penny and then some. The C8 is a great car and the dream for everyone until you mature and start to appreciate some other things besides 0-60 times. The LC is built in the Takumi plant where master craftsmen put them together. The interior blows anything under 200K out of the water. The reliability is untouchable and this vehicle is such a great all-arounder. Vette's have their place but this vehicle is a classic and will be timeless. The quality of a Vette doesn't come close to an LC500 and, unless you track your car a lot, the Vette is less practical and not aas special as an LC500. Reliability and build quality are also a different galaxy than a Vette. Both cars have their place but in the long run and overall, the LC500 is a much better vehicle to enjoy and live with for a longer period of time.

The LC is well-rounded. It ticks every box. It's fast as hell, looks amazing, sounds great, is very high-quality and well-built, reliable, low cost of ownership, lots of features, comfortable, unique/creative, offers a great all-around driving experience as a daily AND on the track or road trips, is priced extremely fairly (if not relatively low) and offers excellent resale value. Can you find other cars that will beat the LC in one or two of those categories and fail miserably in every other category? Of course! Can you find any other car that comes close in ALL that categories? Absolutely not! The C8 is faster, costs less up front, and arguably looks "cooler" (I think they're about equal honestly). In pretty much every other category, the Chevy will fall way behind. If you only care about speed/$ ratio, get a tubbed funny car. If you want a real, well-rounded, beautifully designed and engineered work of art that's destined to be a classic, get an LC. Aloha!

Did some looking into it and I'm like wow I like the c8 too, but to me in the above luxury performance and reliability is always a winner. I could see driving the LC500 from NC to CA to be fun and a pleasure. Doing that in a C8 would be fun for the first 80-100 miles but then I'd say how many more miles? Ugh! Im sure the c8 isn't as comfortable. Thanks for reading

Let's face it, the Corvette is really awesome but it's a race car. It just doesn't look like something you'd drive on public roads. That's not to say you shouldn't but it's really not just a vehicle for normal everyday transportation. If you want to go to the track and test the performance of a C8, THAT'S what it is created for. For a trip to McDonald's, the Mall, the Movies, errands, Post Office, out to dinner etc., the LC500 is your everyday really nice car with styling up the ying yang. Taking a Corvette to McDonald's for a BigMac just like taking an Indy Car to the golf course. Sure, you could do it but it's simply out of place. For sheer fun and excitement the Corvette might edge out the LC. If you had to pick just one of the two cars to live with and drive every single day in all kinds of weather, clearly the LC500 wins hands down. Many will disagree and isn't that what makes life interesting?

I'm one of those weirdo's who is a Lexus person, yet have never owned one..yet. I currently drive a 2021 Mazda 3 turbo hatch which is similar to the LC 500 in some ways...and before the screaming starts, I'm aware they are light years away from being comparable apples to apples😂 What I mean is this..the Mazda 3 turbo hatch is powerful and fast, but not the fastest in class (GTI/R, Elantra N etc) or the best at the limit handler. Having said that, it is more than fast enough and handles well at slightly more than legal speeds on public roads...all most people will ever need. What the Mazda does give you is a very nice interior, comfortable supportive seats and a great sounding stereo system. See where I'm going here with the LC 500 comparo? People who chase stat sheet bragging rights or hate Lexus will never get anything they make. Lexus is never going to have a single model that beats all the competition in all areas, but what they do very well is make a car you rarely regret buying...provided you get what Lexus is about. So in that sense I get it...and am a Lexus guy.

These 2 cars are both great cars and a good problem to have if you are deciding which one to buy. I had a 2LT C8 deposit the 2nd day after the reveal. I sat in the C8 numerous times at the dealer when they had the demo car. It's an amazing car and looks better in person than in pictures. I cancelled my deposit 1 month before delivery and bought a red LC500. I don't regret it at all, the LC500 looks amazing in person and in my opinion has a better proportion than the C8. The C8 is obviously a sports car and has the performance to back it up. That's not saying the lc500 is slow. Realistically if you live in a city you will not be driving at either car's full capability. I bought the LC500 because it looks like a 200k car. A Maserati gt is slower , has a worse interior , doesn't look as good but is more expensive than the LC. Unless you're a badge whore the LC is the best GT you can buy under 150k. It has the reliability and luxury that you can enjoy daily with a peace of mind. And it's amazing to drive with an exhaust note of a muscle car. In the end it depends on what your priorities are. If you want a luxury cruiser that is excellent to drive and looks like a futuristic concept car then the LC500 is a better choice. If you want blistering speed, raw performance then you will not find a better car under 80k than the C8. Honestly if I had kept my deposit and gotten the c8 I wouldn't regret it either. It's like comparing an Bently coupe to a Ferrari. One is more luxurious and the other is more sporty. No one is going to be disappointed choosing one over another.

@@alexralston22 I wouldn't say its Garbage, I would just opt for a Manual because the automatic seems finicky to me- the motor is great - I would just disable the Cylinder deactivation feature to avoid uneven wear on the motor for "gas savings"

@@hyplerai agree. But I consider anything that has a problem garbage of it's costs me a years salary. Im going to write a check for whatever I buy so thank for the input! I'm leaning towards the LC....coming from a chevy guy. Give me some more review points. This is going to be expensive. Thank you Jeff!

one needs to appreciate the quality of the interior materials and the paint and design and the historic reliability and the normally aspirated engine... and when compared to a car that like a semi-custom aston martin, the $150,000 price is not outlandish at all. performance-wise it's not worth $150,000... but man does not live by bread alone..

I think both are nice cars and just hobfo what u want it's your money anyways, but if u want a gt that can go fast and still feel excellent at daily driving go for the Lexus and it u want a raw performance car just get the c8, they compete in different categories

@piercefreeman4964 3 жыл бұрын

I own a 2021 3LT C8 HTC Z51. I have also driven the LC500 and I love both cars. I have to agree with you in that the LC is a little over priced. I know for the 2019 models that were still not sold in 2020 the dealers in Atlanta were offering 15-18k off the MSRP and I almost bought one, but I wanted a convertible. In my opinion the LC500 is more of a Sport Touring car and the C8 is a Sportscar. I think in the long run the LC will be more reliable. This is just my opinion so I not going to argue with you if you disagree. Loved the comparison though.

Lexus is a luxury GT where C8 is a sports car.. reliability is better in LC500 where C8's not upto the reliability standards of lexus. Definitely LC is not a super car. These two cars represent totally different types of buyers. C8 looks so sporty and aggressive where LC500 looks calm and classy.

Wow...thanks for making this video. Out scouting car lots today, a lazy Sunday afternoon and that's the conclusion I came to LC500 Sport or C8 3LT. Too much value/styling for the money in each one. European cars just don't offer the same experience and that's coming from a multiple Porsche/BMW owner.

@abcxyz6606 Жыл бұрын

i'll take the C8. Its all wheel drive, so much better perfomance, better inforatiment system. Sure LC does look 'Classier" and has better reptutation, but with the extra money saved getting the 8, i'll tune the C8 for even more fun, maybe even turbo and enough to cover any repair cost. C8 is also going to have a very large after market parts so many more option to customize the car vs LC pretty much going to be the same accross the board. And stypling looks is subjkective so some may like LC over C8 or Vice Versa. C8 for the Win on this one.

I like that you reviewed them both in red! Thank you for that. I'd love to have both! But think the Lexus is a better buy for a daily driver. The Vette wipes it big time on performance. The Lexus is just more fun I feel like! I don't own either. I'm a keyboard warrior at this point. I feel like the Lexus just would be more satisfying. But won't win any raves vs Chevy's etc! My 2ss Camaro would take it on and win.

Beautiful daily or weekend cruiser. I will be looking into this car in a month or so, and if I end up really liking it, I will look into a supercharger kit that I seen on the rcf Lexus. This car would be perfect with 550-600hp and Atleast 450-500 trq.

If they turbo charged it, would probably be 200k lol remember this is lexus. Its already a bargain, if other manufacturers made this vehicle, would definitely be no less than 150k. You can't supercharged it, the lc500 hasn't been able to be tuned yet. Only the gsf/rcf. Maybe we'll get a lcf..🤷‍♂️ I hope so
