After a week with the Lexus LC500 I really started to love this vehicle. It has some flaws, including mediocre practicality given the segment (tiny trunk, useless rear seats), but the gorgeous styling, fantastic naturally aspirated V8 and well rounded driving dynamics really makes up for it. The touch trackpad is still annoying for the infotainment, but spending time with this car really makes me want one. Enjoy this vlog and mini review of this beautiful $113k Lexus LC500 Convertible!

I just picked up my 2024 LC 500 Inspiration Series ( # 36 out of 125) about a week ago, just drove it from the dealership In Cerritos, Ca, ( stay away from this Lexus dealership) to my house in Murrieta Ca and the following day, my wife and I went out of town, can't wait to go back home and drive this bad ass baby. Have to say, even though it was a rainy day, driving it home, put a smile on my face. Yes, I know it might not be the fastest car in town, but I really don't care about it, or the negative comments about it, It's the car I fell in love with and it's the car I can afford . I had a 2013 911 before, Jaguar F Type, 2017 Audi R8 and a Benz AMG C class and despite some of them were faster than my LC, this is the one I will keep for years to come.

I drove a couple of LC 500s recently at the Lexus Performance Driving School, and my goodness... I love these things. The sound is unreal. I own an IS 500, and it doesn't sound anywhere near as good as an LC 500. I also really like the seating position and the overall luxurious interior. Glad you got to spend some time with one.

Well, the 2024 will do away with the track pad and give us a touch screen as well as some new color choices 😉

I am the proud owner of a 2023 LC500 Convertible. The car is stunningly beautiful. The interior is just beautifullly well made. Super ride, quality at every turn and plenty of power. Yes it has a track pad, yes it has no usable rear seats. So what? No rear seats so what its more of a luxury . Need more seats buy a mini van. What else can I say. Drive one you will buy one, plain and simple 🏖️

The Lexus LC 500 is the most unbelievable car to drive and own! And it won’t break!!!

[adventurefuel]

You said the key combo that has me interested. It’s a “Japanese Austin Martin” in the styling, and with Toyota quality/reliability, you can actually drive 200k miles. If I bought an LC In the Michigan, of course i would have my truck for winter, so that changes the use and mileage. Realistically at 60 years old, this could be the last “car” I ever buy.

The car is pretty fantastic. If you're serious about one, wait for the 2024, the screen has been moved forward as it is a touchscreen. And it will have Carplay and Android Auto. Nice review, thanks for posting!

[martinmcdonald]

These cars are all ready collectors items and are proving to be great investments to own and enjoy trouble free. Must be a Lexus!

[MrSilus]

Never thought I'd hear a stock Lexus that was obnoxiously loud. I've seen everything in life.

[mmmark]

That color looks so good on this. With that unmatched gray trim, only certain colors look good on this car without painting the trim pieces.

Love this car. If I didn't get allocation on the R8 was really eyeing this or the 850i convertible. Love the sound of the LC500, even if slower than the competition.

@ 8:50, the Climate Control difficulties

Climate Concierge synchronizes all the different comfort options -- heated/cooled seats, heated steering wheel, heat scarf in the headrest and the main HVAC system -- to use just the temperature selection on the dash. Set your temp and the car figures everything else out.

As the owner of a '21 Convertible, I've never gone into the climate control settings as you did and turn everything on/off individually. Set the temp on the dash and let the car figure it out. It really works.

These cars are amazing, about to trade in my '21 for a '24 in the new Ultrasonic Blue.

[Slythey]

Why does no one know what climate concierge is on the LC? I agree the touchpad, even when you get used to it, is tedious, but with concierge you never need to use it in the first place. The car will automatically turn heated/cooled seats and the heated wheel up/down/off as the desired temperature is achieved. It does a great job and you don't need to manage the HVAC at all.

You should really buy this. It is really perfection. Great video.

[fredmagic]

Maybe in 20 years I can afford one of these...😔 But until then, I'll just enjoy this beauty by living vicariously through your videos.

[paulm]

Yes this is no LFA, but still amazing Lexus ❤️

[stefm]

Im soo inspired by this.. im 33 starting my own company and working a day job hoping I can get a used one in a year or two🤞

[ArvindSingh-hfzd]

You never told us how the fuel economy was for you Michigan - Chicago drive? Also thanks for showing top operation while driving - the only review that I have see with that. 👍🏽

[ajthomas]

I prefer mazda level rotary knob to control the infotainment over toucscreen ....or bring Acura style functionality to the trackpad & menu .

[ryanu.]

Don’t forget the back seat storage! Lol. I genuinely wish they would get rid of the back seats
