Yep in ten years time nobody is going to pay premium for a Zupra and they will hold their value like a Z4 or any other run of the mill bottom of the line BMW, but an LC will hold its price like a GT-R or the Mk. IV, since it's essentially the real Mk. V Supra. It has the same driving dynamics, 2+2 layout, hair raising power delivery, driver focused interior, and is even priced about the same factoring inflation. (50k in mid 90's ~ 105k in '24)

I am an audiophile and a car enthusiast x Porsche mechanic, with audio not everything that measures well sounds fantastic! Like the LC500 it doesn’t handle like a Porsche, but it has all the ingredients to make you feel special and put a fixed smile on your face, as you can see on this video of Marks fixed smile, driving the LC! This car is unique, and should not be compared to boy racer toyCorvette. Anyone interested in a LC should look up the Takumi engineering that build these cars, they are built like German cars were built 30 years ago, with passion and integrity. Get real, the LC is a grand tourer with sole, not a race car that may never see a race track. The LC is like a premium Valve Amplifier in audio, it works on your emotions driving it, it’s just special.

I finally bought one last week and even being the 2018 model with the worse suspension and transmission tuning it feels glorious. Still much smoother than the RC350 I traded in. Everything feels special and I always look forward to getting in and starting it up. In real life it sounds even better than the videos

Another stellar review on the amazing LC500, well done, gents! This month marks my fourth year with my 2018 LC500. When I ponder replacing it, I go for a drive and quickly recall just how special it is. Mine is just the touring, but sheesh, what a bargain it was for a mere $62k four years ago. 44k miles, not one CEL, not one issue. 2600-mile yearly road trips to Carweek, 30-33 mpgs out of a 471 hp V8, unheard of! I get more compliments on it than I do my Ferrari. I've come to terms it's a keeper, and I'll just add onto the fleet where I can. I haven't experienced a newer LC500 yet, you've sparked that curiosity now! Keep up the great work, and hey, it IS okay to smile and giggle when you're experiencing such a drive even if it is a bit softer than a coupe! 😜

The people who just wanna go fast, those cars will make them smile more at least in terms of a new car. I don't give a shit about speed, so for me an ND2 Miata is one of my favorite cars. But I see the appeal of the people who just want a car that goes fast, kind of like what Jack does. Different strokes for different folks.

As an owner of an LC500 and having driven F Types, I think you’ll be surprised how dynamic the LC500 is. Don’t be fooled by the GT nature, these cars like to be thrashed (as mentioned in the video). Just get the rear wheel steer

I actually included this car on my bucket list. I also included a 2017-19 NSX, a McLaren 570 GT, a Lotus Emira, and finally, Toyota GR Supra. Since I already have an MX5 PRHT with manual transmission, I did not need another manual. Corvettes are way too common, so they were not on the list. The winner, due to the car's exclusivity, performance, ease up upgrades, and reliability was the 45th Anniversary Supra in Mikan Blast (orange) color. Its handling is superb and the B58 engine is surprisingly powerful in a 3400 lb car. The icing on the cake is its looks - so much different than anything else.

Toyota has stopped selling the V8 LC500's in the UK and Europe as of March 2024. This car has another year or two tops then it's done. Buy the cheapest 2020+ you can afford right now, these aren't going to go much lower before they start appreciating.

It's a special car, and Mark's criticisms are in the minds of people who own Porsches. The people who buy this car have owned or currently own other Lexus products, MB SL's etc. This is just what they are looking for - an emotional, beautiful, crafted experience. Things like cowl shake and body rigidity at 8 or 9/10ths - simply are not what this demographic care about, and I think Mark puts too much emphasis on that point as a demerit that somehow is going to shew-away the 100 people who buy these each year for other reasons. A terrific car worthy of our attention.

First gen Mazda RX-7, for me, was the pinnacle of Japanese design, engineering, and packaging of an automobile. While this is pretty and sounds nice I could get a loaded Mustang GT drop-top for 50K less and do 98% of what this can do. And the Coyote V-8 sounds just as good to my ears. It may not be as reliable but anybody buying one of these isn't putting enough miles on it to worry about that.

Normally the goose or the jack owning a car would be a testament to how good it actually is. But SG had an LC500 for a year or two, didn’t really make content about it during that time, and then got rid of it. That does make it hard for me to believe that it’s the greatest near-attainable thing ever. And I do want to believe. Such lookers, and such a V8, in a car that will drive 40k miles in its life but is built to do ten times that.

I picked up an IS 500. I can't get enough of that engine. 3 points, it's the most powerful V8 Toyota makes, it's the second most powerful engine Toyota has ever made, second only to the bespoke v10 in the LFA and... It's Toyota.

I was lucky enough to borrow one for a few state to state trips last year, nothing but good things to say about it. In spite of the low profile tires it still had a nice ride on the freeways or around town. I had the V6 hybrid version but when you revved out the engine it still sounded absolutely fantastic.

When Lexus started making cars. Mercedes used to be a luxury car that was built like a tank and to last. Now Lexus is doing that whereas Mercedes has become a lease machine. This reminds me of a Mercedes SL of the past. To me, this car is luxury. Adding this to my list of cars to own/experience some day.

Solely because of this channel and Mark's love of the LC500 I have gone to my local dealer and test driven two different LC500 Coupes (2018 and 2020) and despite trying to fall in love, I haven't yet. Each time with the car I left feeling the car is really really nice but not quite for me. Personally with the exception of exhaust noise, I thought the facelifted Mercedes Benz S-Class Coupe (2018 - 2020) was more awe-inspiring inside and out as a big GT coupe.
