Lexus LS 500 Review | Twin Turbo or Hybrid?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- We take a look at the new 2019 LS500 to make an executive decision on whether someone should choose the Hybrid V6 or the Twin Turbo V6. New or used Lexus has been known for reliability and also being too conservative. With the current generation, ES and LC500 things are changing. But is that enough to keep the large Sedan afloat when BMW, Audi, Mercedes and now Genesis are listing serious hardware and tech to stay relevant?

I’m noticing a trend, savage seems to be pretty biased for Lexus vehicles.
They're not the best luxury car they are the least disposable.
Well he has good reason for it. It’s luxury and performance that doesn’t break down when the warranty has ended. The Germans have a lot to improve on when compared to Lexus.
I would call the police if i were you.
Lunaticked they’re doing things better than most in a lot of areas
Lunaticked they earned the reputation they have as the most statistically reliable luxury vehicle manufacturer. If you want a genuinely solid car you can keep for at least 10 if not 20 years with minimal expenditure besides servicing, Lexus is the only viable option.
This dude has the most high quality camera work
I work at a car wash so I get to see a lot of nice new vehicles come through. When I sat in the new LS500, it felt like I put on a pair of noise cancelling headphones.
I sat in the LC500 last year at the Detroit auto show and when I closed the door I felt like I was in a library.
That's one thing I miss about doing mobile A/V electronics installations; getting to drive the newest, nicest cars right after they are released.
The BMW is the pushy stock broker who wants to sell you his complicated products. The Mercedes is the waiter at the snobby restaurant who acts like he's too good for you. The Lexus is the loyal butler there to serve YOU.
an old butler yes!
The Mercedes is the hot bitch that wants to wife you but ypu can see her true nature after just few years together:)) I own currently a 2009 C class. Small little issues that gets you eventually and Im glad I dont own an Audi or BMW. Luckily I do a lot of work on my cars myself but next one I ll go 2016 and up Mazda 6 or CX9 oooor... guessed it -Lexus GS newer ones or if I ever can afford it, this LS :D My youtube channel has its name for a reason:D Japanese cars related LOVE:D
Well put!
Actually the LS is the bank robber fleecing you of $100K with a last place ranking by Consumer Reports.
I loooove your analogy!....loyal butler💖💖💖!...the most reliable one, respectful, a wise friend and servant, who knows all the personal business of their boss, and a problem solver who will inherit ALL the riches and wealth by being Loyal!!!!!!
A luxury car that you can actually keep after warranty!
@Mr. Commonsense Recalls don't mean unreliability.
@Mr. Commonsense what kinda recall mate? Still better than all
@Mr. Commonsense There are also manufacturers that have all sorts of problems but never recall them, in my mind recalls are just good customer support.
@Mr. Commonsense tell me more about the recall. I am interesed.
@Mr. Commonsense It was an airbag recall regarding issues from a third party manufacturer. Welcome to airbags. NO manufacturer builds their own units. Its autoliv, takada or whoever else they use. Those units need to be replaced. Simple as that.
That does not represent the engine, drivetrain, chassis or any other components manufactured by Lexus so cut the crap. Recalls that involve OEM component failure, transmission issues and such are valid complaints. GM's Colorado having airbags blowing while off roading is a valid example of a recall that questions reliability. The more you know.
Want long term reliability? Here are actual statistics.
dashboard-light.com/reports/Lexus.html
I've owned a Lexus LS400, LS430, LS460 and now I own the LS500. OMG this vehicle is AMAZING!... one of a kind! Once I got into and drove that LS400...."I was hooked"! But this LS500 is above all the others. It has NO bad angles....Its BEAUTIFUL INSIDE "AND" OUT! Lexus pays close attention to detail. At night the car has an unmistakable elegance with well arranged soft lighting...inside and out. I do not take road trips in my 500 in fear I may fall asleep...it's that comfortable. It has a spot-on pick up when in sports mode. Be Careful...you will be at 90mph thinking you're at 65 to get on the highway. Its no doubt "The Best" of the series. Drive one and you will understand why reviewers rate this car so well and above others. He was correct in relaying the menu options are not easy. So many features Lexus ask new drivers to attend a learn your car class {with food} and provide tech assist for one year free. {I shouldn't say free with the price of this car} Its the ULTIMATE LUXURY SEDAN!
But reviewers don't "rate this car so well and above others." Virtually every reviewer on RUclips, the web or print magazines has all but unleashed their bowels on it. There's a consensus that it doesn't match any of its major rivals in room, ride comfort, performance or technology. Savagegeese himself comments in this video's thread that Lexus beats luxury rivals only in durability. What reviews have you been seeing?
I'm still driving my 93 LS400 daily. Other than a slight issue with the AC from time to time it runs like a top. 390k miles and it just runs and runs.
Have had the car since new, changed fluids and tires, and gotta say it's one of my prized possessions.
A nearly timeless design, assuming the exterior / interior materials hold up, can be maintained and / or replaced. I remember the LS400 fondly as the culmination in Toyota's ascendancy to competing effectively at all levels of automotive execution. May you have another 390k miles of smooth sailing in your LS!
Which parts were replaced that weren't normal wear and tear?
Gorilla Jones that was really time of overbuild Toyota engineering.
@@Elaba_
Heater core, hood lifting struts. I think that's it. It's astonishing really.
I take care of my things so the car has no dents and still looks good. Only visible flaw is the leather has shrunk on the front seats on the seams on the bottom cushion. But easy fix if I really was bothered by it.
@@mayamanign That's amazing. So no real transmission and engine problems. Do you think it is because of the fact you drove in a calmly manner?
Irony that a positive review from an unbiased reviewer ends up with folks claiming he's biased. Savage has literally complained about a variety of things on the car, and on Lexus's in general before and yet folks call him biased. Maybe, just maybe you folks just hate Lexus's for building great vehicles. Ever think of that? Lexus gets enough and more criticism and yet you folks can't give credit where its due. Sad state of folks who can't even detect their own bias
Well said.
@japanwatchconnection Please spare us from your hate. Plenty of videos where you literally see folks claiming there's something wrong where there isn't. But easy way for you to be spared, stop reading comments and take a hike.
To me Lexus was special because of the NA V8 and the LC500 has the best iteration of that motor. And I like the fact Genesis wants to keep the 5.0 V8 in their new cars as well.
I agree. I just can't reconcile the fact that a flagship $100K luxury car even offers a V-6, even if it is a twin turbo. Also, that piped in exhaust note sounds terrible. That is NOT how a big body flagship luxury car should sound--ever. I'd be fine with shutting off cylinders for the sake of "green" (blah blah) but I can't deal with the puny anemic sounding engines and the phony speaker aided exhaust sounds.
A murdered out, all black LS500 with the v8 from LC500 would be a dream
I just bought one of these last week, traded my Tesla. Man it’s an incredible car, that interior 👌
how much is ground clearance with air suspension
Ummm yours was smoking out the tailpipe. Not a good sign. This latest Lexus LS has terrible reliability in Consumer Reports.
@@Mabeylater293 reliability has been light years ahead of my Tesla regardless of CR.
@@InternetDude U are right
can u please tell me how high is it from ground (maximum)
@@talharoxen I don't know the ground clearance, Google it. It's a 2018 LS500 AWD with air suspension.
An absolute majestic beast.
Stick that twin turbo V6 into the next-generation Lexus IS and it'll definitely show its true potential.
who said there is going to be a next-generation IS?
Hey Bo Darville, I think I've seen you on CL.
Yeah there doesn't seem to be any evidence of a new IS. It would be a shame if they killed it though.
Also on cl, there was a debate about the incoming of the ev era, and some members rightfully pointed out that this would have consequences in the development of combustion engines models. Also the SUV craze going on isn't helping.
But I'm confident that Lexus will at least purpose one coupe or Sedan in it's portfolio, it's the dna of their brand and they could have a profitable niche from that. Especially when every concurrence would have left the segment or gone bankrupt, there will be a market there.
Also, maybe we are going to see the first Lexus is Ev.
Rumor has it there's a possibility Lexus will put a TT V6 (probably the one from this car) in their IS for the new F model in 2022.
Well now there’s a V8 in the New IS, even better
I have a 2007 LS460 and it's THE best car I have ever owned.
Id take this over the s class and 7 series any day of the week...
You clearly never drove s class mercedes, right? :)
@@losmosquitos1108 over priced MB ! No need that since Lexus made the LS400, LS430, etc... A LS430 was the best, 7 seriies and s class are not good at all compare to it !
Germans are very nice but way overpriced with a bunch of tech features that people don't even use.
@@losmosquitos1108 i drove it the first day it came to euro dealers, drove a diesel one fully loaded.
@@andrelima5124 And which makes them horribly expensives for useless gadgets !
Am I the only one that freaked out at 3:55 because I thought he is going off the road?
That effect had me bamboozled , thats when you know this video is well thought and made
You had me at "straight up pimp machine"
good for picking up porn stars at the airport.
Imagine if Mr. Goose was a straight up pimp
@@aaronbryan5095 I don't believe it if hes not wearing golden chain
my hoes still wont STFU in the back of this thing...I've tried everything. Frustrating
Same here! Love it
Lexus is amazing. I love this brand so much.
What is awesome about your reviews is that as you talk about a certain thing, you show detailed shots of example. That way we clearly see what you mean. Looking forward for more fun videos.
Love the leather in the gauge cluster
"Straight up pimp machine" damn now I am sold.
Great unbiased review of the LS 500! Love the presentation start to finish. A lot of strong points you hightlight about the exterior & interior that a number of other reviewers somehow overlooked if not totally ignored. Keep it up!
You're growing slowly but surely. Your content easily deserves 1 million Subs. Nobody goes this much into depth aside from you. You had all the nails on the head in an efficient amount of time and you get the point across very easily. Please don't ever stop making videos
The LS in unmatched in the materials, attention to detail, and overall refinement...That's why I spent about 30 minutes in my review gawking over the plush inside.
LEXUriouS Kirk I honestly wish they just did a slimmer interface like the 7 or S-Class, and make the instrument gauge all digital similar to the competition. Otherwise small nitpicking aside, it looks fantastic.
@@senatabazi1658 Lexus actually does LCD gauges right, not throw a tablet in front of the driver then end up making the digital gauges look almost exactly like old analog ones. Whats the point of going digital gauges when they look exactly like the old ones. LCD graphics in the LC500 look much better than the LS
@@senatabazi1658 Oh, god no! All digital instruments look horrible, especially on the German cars. It's like having a cheap Chinese tablet there.
"Unmatched"
LEXUriouS Kirk except my 2016 S550 is better.
Really like the interior on this one with it's integrated sweeping lines like on the inner doors etc. Thank you for the nice smooth camera work so we can actually appreciate these things, Mr. Goose!
You know, once upon a time, Lincoln and Cadillac used to own this space.
It is difficult to fathom how Ford and GM could squander this lofty position; it was not due to a lack of engineering skill or development resources. They lost their market because they abused their customers' trust by selling them substandard products. There is only one way they can come back -- do what Lexus do -- put the customer first.
Unfortunately, it's too late; the # of customers that fit this profile is shrinking (dying off) at catastrophic rates. The "luxury" SUV is cannibalizing this market. And then the 'electric' platforms on coming, which be a huge disruption due to draconian government mandates.
That will never happen. I work in the auto industry as an industrial electrician in Detroit and the old "Big 3" are savages now with inferior everything. Squandered loyalty and everything the did.
I have 2017 chevy Silverado I lease. Good truck but after lease is up I'll purchase a two or three year old es350. The customer service at Chevy is terrible. I've called them 3 times about a recall to make an appointment and was told they would call back. Never did. My wife leases new traverse, decent suv. They put her in the wrong model, had to go back, sad to say, but our old 2000 rx300 was better quality than the 2017 traverse. Hire better people and train on customer service
Lexus LS sales decline should give you an educated guess. The icing on the cake is decreasing sales after 2018 redesign equals this is not very good today.
They have never owned this space and never will.
Another awesome review, love it, wish it was a longer review though.
Love the demonstration of the drive modes at 7:50...you have such a cool, understated way of shooting videos.
@12:55 All hail the engine oil dipstick!
#SaveTheDipStick
@Elon Blunt
Every car does not have this, no. Hence the first comment. Dipsticks are going away quickly (the majority doesn't know where to find it, what it is or how to effing use it)
@Elon Blunt but not every modern luxury car has it (I am looking at you BMW)
The thunking, rough ride and harshness over broken pavement is the tires. Switching from run-flat to regular tires takes just about all of that away. I also saw a minor (1-2mpg) increase in fuel economy after the change.
The rain sensitive wipers are not sensitive enough with misting or light rain. A firmware upgrade should fix this.
The climate control doesn't pump enough heat out of the face vents from a cold start. The heat is there very quickly and I can manually set it to warm the cabin, otherwise left to its own devices the car will warm the foot well while giving me a draft of coolish air out the face vents.A firmware upgrade should fix this.
For such a long car the rear seats don't have near the legroom of the S or the 7, it's ok but not great. On the other hand the power seats in the rear of the new LS adjust in more directions than the equivalent seats in the S, I'm sure the mechanism and motors for this take up some number of inches.
At 30,000 miles the only problem I have had so far is part of the massage on the drivers seat has an air leak. I'm hugely impressed; the first year of production of a completely new model with so much stuff going on and it all works.
Glad to see that the issue was due to run flat tires. What did you replace them with? Pirelli cinturato p7 plus?
So the heat warms quickly in the winter? How long does it take?
how many miles do you have now any other reliability/maintenance issues?
@@MPower396 at 90,000 and nearly three years old now. Had to have the massage fixed three times in the driver seat and twice in the passenger. Lexus replaced the controllers the last time they fixed them and the pressure of the massage has been reduced. Both sides had the same issues return after that and I didn't bother having them fixed again.
There is a known issue with the front brakes making a thunking noise when coming to a stop. The dealer never found a fix for it, I drove a 2019 which didn't do it. I assume they have a fix for it now. The brakes are generally noisy but they function just fine. Still on the original braking components all the way round, which is a nice saving.
I don't believe I had to have a repair which wasn't in warranty. Service costs have been $250 to $450 for the 10k intervals, which seems more than reasonable to me.
I'm not happy with the wipers, they smear water and leave lines, according to my service advisor Lexus made the "rubber" stiffer. I had a loaner with exactly the same issue. This is enough to put me off buying another LS until they fix this.
The logic for both the rain sensitive wipers and the automatic high beam is sub par, I mostly operate both manually.
I just purchased a BMW 750i, 523HP vs 414 for the LS, and the difference feels bigger than that. I have a 328i which doesn't feel too much slower than the LS.
750 also wins on massage, ride, seats and general cabin comfort, quietness, wipers, headlights and putting a grin on my face because it's a rocket. The iDrive in the 750 beats the pants off the touchpad in the LS, also the BMW has buttons for things. The LS has few buttons, leaving you to click click click click on the trackpad to turn on heated seats for example.
LS has the looks, three years later and people are still staring at it and taking pictures. The Mark Levinson is as good as the Bowers and Wilkins and approaching half the price.
The 2021 LS may close the gap, but after just four days with the 750 that gap is pretty huge.
@@Mabeylater293 The engine comes to temperature quickly and the heat is available, but the Lexus sits on it and sends some heat to the windshield, what I want is a blast of hot air into the cabin. Turn the fan up and put it out everywhere. Otherwise the "Climate Concierge" does an OK job. Not nearly as good as my previous GS350, that was flawless HVAC and enhanced the luxury, the LS is just OK.
Last week there was a LS500 parked behind me and a new E class in front of me. I walked up to my car, a current model Alfa Romeo Giulia, and saw the situation from a side profile. Both my car and the E class looked really tiny next to the Lexus. It's really huge. Love the video you made about this car!
I can't believe how good this review was. This had to be your best yet.
You do such a great job reviewing cars. It is a shame only 200k subscribers know this, and that most manufactures are afraid of an honest review. It is nice to see a serious review, of a few people, with great humor, who do not speak endlessly about "quirks and features" for 20 minutes. Something to actually help me choose a new car, and if I should lease or buy!
An engineer at Toyota told me that next gen seats will have bottom cushions that will vacuum away flatulence and use it as fuel in Hybrid Combustion models. _The future is SOON!_
Stock up on beans!
Yep, and instead of fueling the car you have to eat onions with beans and cabbage in garlic sauce. It gives you 1.4 miles per meal...
😂😂😂😂
Anton Zuykov 😂
Totoyota
Excellent review! Honest, clear and to the point! So good!! We need a full review on this car! F-Sport too! Tell us your thoughts on the LS moving from a traditional luxury sedan in the 4th gen to a front mid-engined platform for the 5th gen!
Okay but that INTERIOR. That has to be one of the best looking dashboards i have ever seen. Nothing juts out and theres not a million buttons for everything.
You're spot-on with the tedious menus in this car. I spent 10 minutes trying to find the massaging seats menu....then found the dedicated physical button for it.
Have you heard of voice control?
@@Zettel9016 Or few seconds if you let the guy from Lexus to explain and show you how it works !
I really enjoy your content. Camera work is beautiful, information accurate, honest feelings & opinion. This Lexus is something else wha?
Thank you for the great review as always.
The engine noise being pumped in should always be optional. I personally love it, but I know many others who do not. But hey at least they don't have fake exhaust tips! Great review Mr. Geese!
Damn. Just came across this on my feed. Well made video and great commentary. Keep it up!
Great reviews as always man! Keep up the good work!
Recently found your channel and what a find. Really enjoy your videos. Mostly enjoy the variety of cars you cover. I'm from south africa and many cars you review we get here to.
Thanks for great reviews.
materials quality is top notch. A naturally aspirated "5.7L V8" or a "Supercharged 5.0L V8" option would have increased the appeal of the LS 500 considering its bulk.
Yep, so right! And no cvt transmission pleeaaase... :)
@Elon Blunt don't really care about mpg. I simply dislike these kind of transmissions. Imagine my AMG with a CVT. AARRRGGGHHHH....:)
@@losmosquitos1108 totally agreed. Not a fan of CVT. I don't think CVT and fullsized luxury sedan should be in the same sentence
@@losmosquitos1108 agree with you on this. Truly AMG and CVT do not make sense together in the same sentence. Besides fullsized luxury sedan shoppers aren't particularly keen on fuel economy but rather on opulence and performance
Genesis G90 with V8...
Great video. I wish it was longer. 😎
That comment about being a low stress environment really made sense to me when I heard it. Great review.
3:30 this part of the review is enough reason to buy a LS for me :)
-piano background is just perfect for the lexus flagship.
Here I was thinking Fridays couldn't get any better then Me.Geese comes along and drops a fire review
Great review. Thank you.
Dude you are awesome reviewing cars! I bought my Nissan Maxima thanks to your review! And love it! Keep them coming.
Very good, honest review with strong suggestions Lexus should follow through on. Thank you
"Straight up pimp machine."
Ok, that's it. I'm emptying my bank account and putting a deposit down on this. All $50 lol.
Pimps are disgusting pieces of filth that ruin society.
Oddly, I had a hard time watching the forward facing driving shots because of the reflection in that huge hood... almost vertigo inducing.
I remember getting a ride In a LS400 from a business associate of my dad's around '90 - 91. The driver floored it and the impressive thing was how it accelerated with that muted NA 8. At the time, it felt very quick for a bulky sedan. The owner was so proud of his purchase and, honestly, I think of the gamble he took at buying the first luxury sedan out of Toyota. He could have picked up any German offering at the time, but the LS was something special.
I have an LS 460, best car I have ever owned. May just consider this in a few years. :)
Shots and music are poetic, very artistic.
Nicely done, earned another sub :)
Epic videography!
As usual, a good review!
Great review!
They have a mirror for the back seat passengers to....fix their hair...lol nice touch at 3:30
Richard Burton Pretty much. They’ve had that mirror at least since the ‘05 model
Great review. Always loved the Ls runs forever & previous owners rarely sell them
I need my comfort zone to watch this, finally something exciting and educative
The interior door panels really sold me, damn that’s actually pretty nice
What are you doing with over 200k subscribers?? You need at least 1MILLION :D Probably best car reviewer on youtube!
Jeeze the craftsmanship on Lexus vehicles has always been so good.
first time watching this guy's review.. wow i'm a fan. STRAIGHT UP PIMP MACHINE.. i'm sold.
The best car vlog ever you are a star full stop. 👌
This is NOT “Understated” luxury, it’s UNDERSTANDING Luxury. If Luxury = electronics then the car space is the only area that’s the case. Just that dashboard screams luxury, not TESLA like Mercedes now
I love this car and it’s my dream. I’m having an 05 Lexus ES and it is just a blessing to drive. Smooth, comfortable and quite. Such a reliable car from time to time. I would love to be able to buy an LS one day. I really hope that Lexus will bring back their V8 instead of the V6 with 2 turbos.
The consensus is that you have the greatest generation of the LS ever made.
Great review.well done. Can’t wait to get one 😅
Proud owner of 2016 LS460 here. I love the car... my only problem is, it will be at least 10 years to need a new car. :/
Thanks man. Car Reviewers now that's how you make a review like this guy.
Return the V8 for this huge palace 🐳
You make the best videos.
“It is a straight up Pimp Machine” - savagageese. Can’t wait to see that on official Lexus advertisements next to Motortrend and Car & Driver quotes.
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!!! LOL I have final in 3 hours
5.0 L V8, that’s what I wish was in it. I love this car. I have an LS460 with the 4.6 L V8. I’ve seen so many of these in person. I’ve sat in several too because I go to a million different Lexus dealers lol. The freaking interior is insane. Literally the best ever. Lexus of Escondido has a ton of these. And even an LFA. Lexus of wood,and Hills has an LFA as well.
This reviewer is just being honest and practical about the car. Seems everyone is dumping on him for speaking the truth! I like this guy. He is my kind of person. Brutally honest! I love it Superb review!
Ah, a little mini goose to start a joyous December morning. I've grown to value your opinion a tremendous amount. Thank you for not giving automakers habitual reacharounds and ear licks.
10 year old LS460 here, 155k miles, with 50k miles driving uber in bad city roads, zero problems.
Love the interior materials, especially the mix and the avoidance of piano black. Also, what was with that Mazda near the end??
Great review and you are one of my favorite reviewers. You are spot on. I tried to purchase and LS 500 a few months back but after driving it versus a BMW twin turbo V8 7 series, I just could not do it. I would have gotten a LC 500 but I prefer a big sedan. If and when Lexus places a naturally aspirated V8 (like the LC 500) in the LS I will pick one up. I am a fan of Lexus dependability. (Had a SC 430 and loved it.) I want to drive an LS however I am still young enough that I would like some excitement when I do. Come on Lexus I am waiting on you. I am getting the wife a RX or ES 350 in the next 30 days so I am a believer in your products.
ˇAs far as I know there is a V8 F-sport version coming out in a year or so. I personally prefer a quieter hybrid, but I understand why so many people are asking for the V8.
Matt Farah recently posted videos on the new ES and this LS and was much more thrilled about driving the ES than the LS. Might want to test drive both cars if you can really afford the LS and decide from there.
Regarding the sound... I wish they used a similar approach that they have used in the IS 350, GS 350, etc. and of course now the LC 500. The LC has "enhanced" engine noise that isn't digital and sounds very, VERY good.
Did a video of this car. When Lexus was hosting a event on chicago during the summer. The twin turbo was pretty good. Defiantly a ton of turbo lag. But once it gets going it moves.
I agree with you on the suspension. My 07 LS rides the same way. Tires can make a difference but does not solve it.
Nice job.. Your a video making Savage👍🏿👌🏿😊
that vtec kicked in, bro! 8:10
I drove the Executive model for a day. And you are 1000% correct with everything. Exactly how i felt about the LS. Only think I was hoping it to be more “Grand” with the interior. But i guess they win you over with its simplicity. Surprisingly, there was a bit too much road noise for my liking. I was hoping to fall asleep. I didnt drive the Hybrid. But it would be the one Id get. Too bad Lexus loves to make you buy predestined models and options. I wished they made a hybrid F sport.
I'm amazed that there hasn't been some sort of collaboration between a mobile phone manufacturer, these people have a lot of practice with this. It's no surprise that car manufacturers suck at creating touch screen UI, it has little to nothing to do with car manufacturing, until now. I do love the gauge cluster though.
The car is very refined but not as refined as your presentation. The visuals, audio and information craftet together are superb. Really liked the comparison between the two engine variants. Funny that you feel this is a pimp machine and then say it is great to drive people around in. Imagine to Uber this to take a bachelorette party group to the club.
Great review, great suggestions and great comments- "straight up pimp machine". LOL.. But that stupid mousepad- painful...OMG. Agree on the comments between M5 and Lexus LS.
I drive a Maybach 57s with the V12 6.0 liter engine. Truly, even in 2024, this Lexus LS 500 is next level ❤.
A+ awesome review keep up the good work!
Great review. Would to see the Caddi CT6 TT and hybrid juxtaposed worth this
I just saw one earlier red, it looks soooo goooooood!
It’s the run flat tires ☹️ .....at 7000 miles I took the runflat tires off of my LS 500. Taking the tires off made a world of difference on how my car drove.
Buy high quality summer tires like Michelin Pilot Sport Cup or for more refined, all season driving the new Continental PureContact LS.
thanks for this,
I hope you will fo a video on the genesis s90 .. great videos you do
Id say the g90 beats the ls 500 by having a v8 and physical buttons alone.
The 2020 g90 or 2017?
@@barbecuetechtips6024 2020 g90
Yeah Genesis kill it with this new design. Beside chrome around tail lights g90 is almost perfect exterior design imho.
SG rollin like a baller.
Awesome review per usual. the gas and going to 7000 RPM goes against smoothness and effortlessness.
Brian Cooley needs to review this car.
