The Mini LFA? Lexus LC500 First Drive & Review!
Рет қаралды 268,878
Күн бұрынI take a first drive and review of the 2018 Lexus LC500 from Lexus! Renowned for being the "Mini LFA," we delve into the specific details and offer a comprehensive first-drive review of the stunning LC500.
We begin by exploring its alluring design, both externally and internally, meticulously crafted to echo the essence of its celebrated counterpart, the Lexus LFA. But it's not just about aesthetics; the LC500 packs a punch with its naturally aspirated 5.0L V8 engine, delivering 471 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. This engine has cylinder heads first designed by Yamaha, before working on the iconic V10 in the LFA.
Coupled with a sophisticated 10-speed automatic transmission, this car can reach 0-60 mph in just 4.4 seconds. Despite its relatively heavy curb weight of 4,280 lbs, the LC500 handles with agility and grace, courtesy of its well-engineered chassis and dynamic control systems.
Does the Lexus LC500 genuinely earn the "Mini LFA" title? Join me and Shimmy as we uncover the truth. Whether you're a car enthusiast, a prospective buyer, or someone who appreciates masterful engineering, this review offers you a detailed view of what the LC500 has to offer.
Thanks to @shimmy and @carsofkitchener for making this video review possible!

4 years with my LC500 so far, can't seem to fathom the thought of parting with it. They truly are amazing vehicles; one of the best cars i've owned (over 100+ cars). Reliable, nearly 500hp, 30-33mpg on long road trips, an more comfort than you can imagine. Made in the same Motomachi, Japan plant as the LFA, by the same senior craftsmen. These are diamonds.

My father just purchased one and I took it for a spin on my wedding day, been in a 2023 M5 competition with all the extras and the LC at around 20k less is just unbelievable. It's no where near as quick, but when you sit in a LC you know the car is special, the quality, the seats, the driving position, no Audi and BMW compare, the LC is just such a special car inside. Oh and that sound when in sports+ manual is music to my ears

The only issues I’ve had were covered under warranty- loose third brake light, squeaky front brake pads, and the major one being four defective blend door HVAC actuators, but that last issue affected numerous 18/19 models due to a manufacturing defect. Still have no rattles or creaks. The best upgrade I’ve done was ditching the crappy Bridgestone run flats for Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires which took it to the next level of comfort and handling.

What a great review! picked up mine about a month and a half ago, 2024 Inspiration Series, I love everything about this car, had porsches 911, Jaguar Ftype, Audi R8 and Merceds Benz AMG C68 before, let me tell you, this LC 500 is a keeper, might not be the fastest car in town, but it's fast enough for me, despite other people's opinion and the exhaust sound is fantastic, I would say, as good or better than the F type. The satin white on the blue interior is just insane, Lexus did a great job with this combo

Nice review! You are correct, Lexus has invested a lot of time in understanding their customers, hence the high level of repeat purchases. I can't wait to hear your impressions on the IS500, too bad you have already filmed it, as there are suggestions we owners have to help ensure a well rounded review. Both the LC500 and IS500 have Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde characteristics; but in general, Lexus defaults to Dr. Jekyll. Drive them both in manual & sport+ and Mr. Hyde will come out to play. Lastly, the IS500 is still a daily commuter at its heart, so the extra loud exhaust was not part of the equation. Just the hum of the V8 as you commute to and from the office, with the ability for weekend mountain fun and canyon carving! Thanks for posting.

Lexus liked to boast the LC as a good track car when its balanced but tuned to be an LC (luxury car) as its named. Lexus took a big chance on the design but I feel like they didnt know what they truly wanted for this car. It needs a proper tune, shed a lot of weight, shrink by 4-5", and remove the back seats...if its gonna keep the 471 crank HP/ 395-400 wheel HP.

My parents being heavy users didn’t realize that the interval was in Kilometres, they thought it was in miles, so the SUV was basically getting few oil changes during its life. They sold it in 2022 with 150,000KMS and only had 6 oil changes and services done. They said it was the cheapest SUV they ever owned, most reliable and robust. in 2022, when they traded it in for a 4runner the dealer offered them $35,000. Great car Lexus and Toyota!

Mini???? its the overweight brother. An LFA's magic is its motor and weight which is 3263lbs. The LC500 is 4340 at its lightest. The LFA made 553hp and the LC500 makes 471hp. Not really fair to put them in the same catagory. The real question is why didnt they offer a top tier supercharged LC500 making 600hp

@@carswithsonduren I ordered a bespoke Ultra White Red Interior Coupe in October 2022. I thought I was getting a 23. Dealer informed me that it would be a 24. So I suspect that I will get a white one. I ordered 21 inch tires. So I don't really know for certain. It's gonna be hard to turn down whichever it is just because of some small detail. I can live with it.
