@@djpierre4613 Do you guys need to pay additional taxes on cars that are purely powered by ICEs? But yeah, with the fuel prices in western Europe, even the LC500h is kind of expensive to fill up, depending on how much you drive.
I really, really wish they made the hybrid variant also available in convertible. That would be a selling point for a gift for my mother because she doesn't need all that power, just a nice summer breeze.
Freakin' gorgeous and that nautical interior is just stunning. Dont mind the silver exterior either for it highlights the car's muscular stance. In an ideal world I would get the convertible though.
Man first time in your channel... I seriously came here because I was hoping you were going to give me a reason not to buy this since I love it so much. But such a great review not because you told me what I love hearing but because of your entertaining review.
Gorgeous and great car 😍 i drove the V8 sport plus version with rear wheels steering and the driving dynamics is even better than it's german competitors.
Had the pleasure of driving one in 2018 while staying at pebble beach resort. They allow you to drive their fleet for a couple hours. Of course I was like the LC please. I even jammed my son car seat in the back, whatever it takes. Man, that was the most fun 2 hours of my life. Driving around 17 miles drive on an LC was heavenly. One day Lexus one day. I have to be content with my ES, RX,and IS for now.
Ich hätte mir den V8 mit Hybrid gewünscht.Aber ich kann nicht zustimmen Der LC 500h ist wirklich Klasse,man sollte ihn kaufen.Vom V8 Sound abgesehen bietet er alles was man braucht und ist ein Appell an die Vernunft. Der LC sieht sportlich aus ist aber mehr gleiter vom Charakter.Das ist gut so. Der LC ist so oder so ein Traumauto.
Totally agree with your test and comments. Have the same one in same liquid platinium grey and love it. Not the V8 but still a great car. Use it to drive in town in perfect confort but also for long trips including high speed on the German autobahn. 240km/h easy last summer when I was in Germany. Feels very safe, looks great. Car is wide so not that easy in my underground parking. If you have the opportunity try one.
FYI. We don’t cars about engine noise. In fact the less of it the better. I handsomely enjoy the Mark Levinson and expect no competition from engine racket inside our cabin. If I wanted engine noise invading my cabin, I’d buy a ford pinto.
We have His and Hers LC 500's She Coupe and He Convertable and they are the most amazing LUXURY Sports Coup on the market. Best sound of any V8 other than maybe the SVR's. While the V6 Hybrid makes sense.....there is nothing like the V8...this will be a collector
We are paying $2.00 a litre for fuel in Australia, which is ridiculous! But being a car enthusiast and enjoying driving the last of the great quality V8 cars it’s worth the expense. PS have a second daily fuel efficiency car for every day use 😊
Awesome review and awesome looking Lexus. The LC 500 is a real beauty. The cost is not cheap but what's wrong with dreaming big? Lexus luxury in full effect! ❤
Looks like Atomic Silver. I have the same color on my ES350. I am now looking for a low mileage 2-3YO LC500h, hopefully I can find one in white or silver at $70k……
Your bang on with your review and thank you very much absolute amazing car, and yes, I would say one of the best looking cars today in the world, for me anyway❤ and also not to mention the Lexus reliability ❤❤❤
Mr GT mentioned the LC500 is better than the LFA. The LC500 is amazing but not in the same class as the LFA. The LFA may be older but they now sell for more than 1 mil. There are several reasons why the LFA will increase in value and the LC500 will sadly depreciate until it becomes a classic way off in the future. If you want the perfect GT the LC500 cannot be beaten as its reliability will beat any other maker.
I’m in the process of buying the Lc500 hybrid.I can afford either version .I chose the hybrid for my long ride trips.I’m 58 yrs old about to retire.I was also looking at the c8 and the Panamera 4s.Thanks
@@mauricegarcia3209what does the hybrid give you that the V8 doesn’t? Other than a few dollars savings on fuel I don’t see any positive, but can identify several negatives both short and long term.
@@FadeDance I agree 1000 percent. Why I have an inline 6 f150 2 wheel drive and a GX 460! Hardly any flash there I’ll tell ya. But if I did own a LC 500 it would not be a soy boy hybrid.
Lc500 is one of the best looking car on the market...
Indeed
Buy one with an engine that matches its looks, get the V8 🤩
The v8 is almost double(!) the price in our country(NL). Also, fuel is $7,50 per gallon. So this depends where you live I guess..
@@djpierre4613so true about where you live

@@djpierre4613Fuel consumption aside.
0-100km/h
LC500 V8: 5 seconds
LC500h V6: 5 seconds
If I have the money, I would buy a V8 for showcase and buy a hybrid for driving lol

One of the best and underrated cars ever and it’s better than its German counterparts and nothing can convince me otherwise.

@@GTGarageTalk trust me, I dispise Mercedes so nothing is going to convince me otherwise.
I Agree, don't buy the hybrid version, just go for the V8 version and then you can enjoy it from the outside AND the inside while driving it.

You are so lucky, it’s a beautiful car, I would choose one of these over a corvette any day. It’s sporty and it’s more comfortable than a corvette.

take a shower
Brooooo your fuel is expensive.
Don't buy one? Why? Elegant style and the roar of a V8 sound!
I don't want ONE, I want multiple...
@@GTGarageTalk That's what you meant. I understand
when i see "don't buy one", i know the guy will tell u to buy one 😆
😉
Look closely
The title says "don't buy ONE" meaning you shouldn't just buy one but get more than one
Awesome review and awesome looking Lexus. The LC 500 is a real beauty. The cost is not cheap but what's wrong with dreaming big? Lexus luxury in full effect! ❤
Exactly
Amazing exterior and interior. Wheels look awesome too
Yup
I haven’t watched yet, but the title is telling me to buy two?
This car looks better in person than on my television.
Beautiful car...nice color combination without the carbon roof!
Great video & job on this LC video. I have the lc500h
Thanks for watching.
So, im V close to trading my 300 H F sport for this - yeah or nay?
Loved the Edbassmaster bit and love the car
what car colour is? titan or iridium sonic?
one mistake in your description:
2004 Lexus LC 500h Specs:
2024
Iridium Sonic.
Thanks for catching that.
Its sonic silver
Looks like Atomic Silver. I have the same color on my ES350. I am now looking for a low mileage 2-3YO LC500h, hopefully I can find one in white or silver at $70k……
Hahaha yes it looks just divine!
I know, right?!?
I love it. But wish to afford just have one as my dream. Thanks for the video
If taking a shower floats your boat mate, good luck to you 😊

Sexy car 😍
Dude you can’t do a review of this car in hat & hoodie…put on a golf polo and a pair of sunglasses
😂
Beautiful specification.
👍🏼
So true, but give me the V8 all day.
Yup.
Can’t get the white interior and wear denim. Two words: Dye transfer
👍🏼
You took a word out of my mouth!
That is why I ordered black interior and black leather still looks good in my '02 SC430
I wish they didnt put backseats at all
🤷🏼♂️
It is time for the 2025 s - so is this car for sale?
sure. there are still plenty of 2024s left.
@@GTGarageTalk what if I want yours?
@@Agent47-py4zi Sadly, this is not mine. It belongs to Lexus.
@@cory4nek I want that color combo and I can’t find it

Do you know what I just realised! The mode selector is on your right side and it’s on my left in my car - for sport to sport + mode etc
Interesting.
Cost a fortune, and weighs a ton. It’s for people that never owned a Jaguar.
These 500h are like 50k cheaper then the 5.0 v8 in my country. Damn CO2 taxes...
What country are you from sir? I'm from Australia.
That’s a great color
I know, right?!?
I haven’t watched yet, but the title is telling me to buy two?
I wish it were a 2 seater remove that back seat
They do it to get around the luxury tax
I wonder if it’s possible to swap my current black interior to this in my LC500…😢
Isn’t it beautiful???
Don't buy one, buy two.
Nice clickbait by the way.
I emphasized the ONE. lol
8V makes more sense ❤
V8 sounds much better too
If you pay $100k but feel the need to save a few hundred dollars a year on gas you probably can’t afford it in the first place.

They day you buy that car in a hybrid is the day you give away your manhood
The day that you think that what kind of car you drive defines your manhood is the day that you gain a fragile manhood.

U kinda sound like morty😂
Thank you 🤷🏼♂️
Okay, I won't buy one, two sounds good
Yes!
I want one
Same.
Biggest issue is, it's a CVT gearbox.... such a waste!
I have a 2015 rc 350f sport,I didn't know they were using a CVT, that would keep me out of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!for ever!!!!!
70k only Maserati gt s63,Bentley gt comparable
Start up
It’s coming.
turn up your microphone
For you just truck is ok to drive 😂😂😂
Nice😂 buy 2
😉
Click bait title
I emphasized the ONE. 😉
The hybrid sucks ass
I mean… it’s not the V8, but I’m currently driving a hybrid competitor that is way worse than this.
How does it suck?
@@toms_garage it doesn't
