He probably should be changing gears like that with that glass transmission. The MT82 in the Mustangs, aside from the GT350 and Mach 1 that have the Tremec TR6060, are known to be glass and hate fast shifting.

The Lexus looks amazing in that color. whoa! In the thumbnail it looks light green but in the video on a cloudy day it looks dark green. It’s so beautiful
Love when people say that because it shows a lot of % of people don’t know why that use to happen but don’t anymore (as often) mustangs use to have live axle which wasn’t the best for those situations. Most car companies didn’t make powerful solid axle rearwheel drive cars. But now for a long time ford has been using irs. With that comes better handling and control. Now it’s just driver error and the fact that there are more 8 sec 1/4 mile 900-1100whp mustangs out there than any other car in the world. You stick a idiot behind the wheel of the old or new ones it’s on the idiot not the car.
yeh I used to change gears faster driving around in my old ford focus than he does in a drag race lol. tbf though modern autos change faster and smoother than any human can
All the power in the third gen coyotes is 6500 to 7400 and he kept short shifting right when he was finally hitting the power and was pulling on the Lexus...Lol. pretty much a dead heat with driver variability though.
@@slunasaurusrex There are only two shifts shown in the video, 7000rpm and 7400rpm... He shifts pretty much where peak power is. Nothing wrong with it at all. The Lexus is simply a slightly faster car compared to a 6 speed Mustang.
Thinking the same. Those shifts where horrible, I shift my Clio casually on my way to work quicker than that, bloody hell. Manuals require a learning curve that takes weeks or months to get in perfect tune with the car, in order to shift quick and smooth on demand. And every manual is different from one another.
I’ve been blessed being an owner of different classes of Mercedes, BMW, Lexus and amongst all of them Lexus has been a more rewarding experience for me, Not only in terms of luxury and quality, but also great resale value
Maybe so, but that mustang has an mt82 transmission and it’s the worst transmission you can get in a mustang. The 10 speed auto would have wrecked the LC500. Not sure if these mustangs are slower in Europe, but even the 10 speed mustang on car wow hasn’t been putting out the best numbers. They will do the quarter mile in high 11’s and trap 118-121. Like an m3/M4
@@PapiAndrey I think American cars are kind of slow in Europe I saw them run trackhawk other day it ran like shit it was like it doesn’t got a hellcat engine in it I don’t know what they do to them in Europe and Matt actually can’t shift 😂😂😂
@@dhillon5660 something has to be up, there was a supercharged mustang gt with 750hp and here in America we have people going out and buying stock mustang GT’s with bolt ons (headers, intake manifold, e85 tune) with 500whp and they would be right next to that 750hp mustang on carwow. Granted the one I’m talking about is a 10 speed with a motor that’s one generation newer, but it doesn’t matter when we are talking about such a big difference in power in the same car. Oh well
Yanni just brake and floored it for the launch, but he should've just gave it about 1/2 throttle just to bring the rpm up to torque converter stall speed until actual start. Since he floored it before the actual launch, the power of engine overcame the rear brakes, thus the spin before the launch, which the traction control kicks in also. Knowing lexus, it kicks in and cut engine power for 1 to 2 seconds.
Why isn't anybody mentioning how Yanni didn't even engage launch control lol. Look closely at 2:52 he is doing a traction controlled wheelspin, hence that rolls-like launch. He did the same for second launch as well

@@omarmahmood5011 Do research on the LC 500 and you will quickly find out that it isn't designed to set lap times or win races from a dig. It's a grand touring car, built with high-quality materials.

@@ventmg Because the Lexus has no launch-mode. So you need to launch it like the Mustang with ~1/4-1/2 gas. Otherwise the wheels lock up because it the torque overpowered the rear-brakes which caused traction-control to kick in and caused the Lexus to cut power. In the rolling race it was visible that both cars are basically equal outside their transmission & launch.
@@ariz.k bruh the mustang had a bad start too, it’s manual and mat shifted very slowly. The mustang would’ve easily won. And mustang was stick and the Lexus IS automatic and yet the mustang won.
@@2mjz84 I agree its for MPG reasons to avoid the gas guzzler tax, but it could still be geared like the manual camaro where the first 5 gears are fairly close for acceleration and 6 is really long for cruising.
The ideal thing would be like the corvettes C7 manual. First 6 gears are not that long , but 7th is a massive overdrive. Like the Gt350 trans would be great for the regular mustang gt.
Damn, the difference between the 10 speed mustang and manual is massive. It would be really interesting to see the 10 speed mustang vs the Lexus. You can see the mustang pull on the Lexus until Matt needs to shift, then he starts falling behind.
Yes the problem is that even if the shifter in mustang is a short throw one, you still need some skills to shift it faster. Moreover the Bullitt only comes in manual.
At 5;27 you can see that the guy has has the Mustang floored at 3000 RPM with the Lexus pulling away. It isn't going anywhere due to driver error. There is no way the Lexus was ever below 5000 rpm at any point with the throttle floored. Lousy comparison when the outcome relies 100% on the Mustang driver having his shit together....which he didn't.
@@Gtamaster34 whats yhe earnings go to do with it? Does one not what sports then since most sportsmen earn more than the average guy? There is the occasional decent race on here, but lets be honest he can't drive and has very little technical knowledge.
This is, BY FAR, the best sounding race this channel had in a looong time. No stupid soft limiters, no stupid fake speaker sounds, no muffled engines. Just a couple of brute, awesome V8's.
I’ve owned several F cars and driven a couple of LC500 V8s. Induction is awesome, quality fantastic but the lack of torque is frustrating (and that includes the ISF, RCF, GSF and the LC)
@@dallasmellsop5488 yes, that’s a very valid point and on a really good road, wringing its neck is fun (although be warned, they are very highly geared!). It’s in these conditions that the Lexus 5.0 V8s fail. In, a GT car, for me, I want it to dish out effortless A to B ability. Lexus are obsessed with the these cars getting into the highest possible gear as soon as possible, so making mediocre effortless progress is hampered.
That MT82 is at it again with those clunky shifts. Every time he shifted the car slowed more and more. I love my 6R80 it NEVER misses or slows down, even with 112k miles.
@@seatoskyadventures6130 nah... 10 speed LC500 1/4 mile 13.0 s @ 109.8 mph 6 speed and 10 speed mustangs have no issue 12.6 sec @ 115.1 mph 6 speed 12.1 sec @ 118.8 mph 10 speed Look at the traps man. Even in the bid on a roll you can see the mustang leaving the LC in 2 gears until Matt bumbles the shifts and pusses out.
I saw one of those Lexus on the road last week, from memory the only one I’ve ever seen and it looked amazing, actually started looking on Autotrader and they are ~£59k at 2019 so good value from 90k new.
I've never really looked at Lexus cars before, and I've never seen the LC 500 on the road so I didn't know the thing existed. I checked randomly and everything I'm seeing is basically my dream car. Really looking forward to the 2024 model when it gets rid of the touchpad for an actual screen. Seriously considering purchasing one.

They really do but unfortunately you won't find much appreciation on RUclips. Just chronic complainers and angry people looking to prove who knows more about said topic.
Damn, that Lexus LC500, looks even more stunning and elegance while running..From those two cars, once you see both, you'll know which is sport luxury and which is racing car. LC500 is one of masterpiece from Lexus. The others are Lexus LF-A and the LC 500 predecessor, LC 460 which is the first pioneer of Lexus sport luxury car. The other hand, Mustang is a muscle or racing car that only focus on power with V8 engine characteristic. Although they are from different class, but each has their own history and fans. Their both exhaust sound really great.
Yianni only goes for big expensive brands Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari and maybe the big BMW's and Mercs. I expect he didn't have it in sport+ mode on drag race either.
Should’ve used the mustang with the 10speed that thing is amazing. Now days if you want to go fast with a mustang you have to get the 10r80 10apeed. There is tons of guys running in the 8s In the 1/4 mile with that transmission and stock sealed motor with just power adders . He should’ve compared 10speed on 10speed. Manual is just to slow.
Finally non German cars! These sound so fantastic. No turbos is a glorious thing. I don't even care who wins. I just love not seeing de boring Germans. Plus exhaust please more like this! Save the manual

😂😂😂
Mat is soo carefully changing gears in that Mustang
Don’t wanna hurt the babystang
The second launch on the Lexus was terrible 😂 Lexus would’ve probably won that race too
@@ventmg Because the Lexus has no launch-mode. So you need to launch it like the Mustang with ~1/4-1/2 gas. Otherwise the wheels lock up because it the torque overpowered the rear-brakes which caused traction-control to kick in and caused the Lexus to cut power. In the rolling race it was visible that both cars are basically equal outside their transmission & launch.
Lexus would have easily won the drag race, the launch was messed up for 2nd race
But it didn’t
@@bebossa5986 true but coz of launch and that's clear
@@ariz.k bruh the mustang had a bad start too, it’s manual and mat shifted very slowly. The mustang would’ve easily won. And mustang was stick and the Lexus IS automatic and yet the mustang won.
This just shows you how much of an impact gear ratios has on a car's acceleration. The mustang has stupidly long gearing
“For mpg reasons”
@@2mjz84 I agree its for MPG reasons to avoid the gas guzzler tax, but it could still be geared like the manual camaro where the first 5 gears are fairly close for acceleration and 6 is really long for cruising.
Gas’s guzzler tax
@@davidkelley751 definitely. On the Volkswagen Polo 1.0l you can do 110kph in 2nd gear😅
The ideal thing would be like the corvettes C7 manual. First 6 gears are not that long , but 7th is a massive overdrive. Like the Gt350 trans would be great for the regular mustang gt.
Haha love the chemistry between you two, great video Matt
Dude Yianni’s Lexus crawled off the line lol, you need a rematch on that
Damn, the difference between the 10 speed mustang and manual is massive. It would be really interesting to see the 10 speed mustang vs the Lexus. You can see the mustang pull on the Lexus until Matt needs to shift, then he starts falling behind.
Yes the problem is that even if the shifter in mustang is a short throw one, you still need some skills to shift it faster. Moreover the Bullitt only comes in manual.
I'm just waiting for Mat to review the GT500 and get it in for some drag races as well. That would be awesome
The 10 speed would definitely pull on the lexus. You could clearly tell the mustang was faster until it was time to shift
Are we watching the same video? @4:27 Mat is not shifting, outside you have a Lexus coming up. Same in @3:03
The Lexus lc is not a muscles 💪 car it a luxury car
Never seen Yianni so calm.
Yeah, he matured.
At 5;27 you can see that the guy has has the Mustang floored at 3000 RPM with the Lexus pulling away. It isn't going anywhere due to driver error. There is no way the Lexus was ever below 5000 rpm at any point with the throttle floored. Lousy comparison when the outcome relies 100% on the Mustang driver having his shit together....which he didn't.
Lol Mustang lolst Just deal with it. 😂😂😂 Little baby
The 10 speed mustang would’ve been interesting
The 10 spd auto is a second quicker to 60. but it isn't available in the Bullet!
@Shay Butta he's not a driver or a petrolhead, just a guy who can read stats and make shit jokes.
It would of left the Lexus with ease! Matts gear changes were cringe worthy!! Haha
@@ahemgee9542 If you're such a hater then why do you watch? He earns way more money than you😂
@@Gtamaster34 whats yhe earnings go to do with it? Does one not what sports then since most sportsmen earn more than the average guy?
There is the occasional decent race on here, but lets be honest he can't drive and has very little technical knowledge.
Someone needs to give Matt some lessons on how to quickly shift gears
I will for free
No human can change gears as fast as a proper automatic transmission.
@@sinenomine4540 join me on the hunt of who asked
@@imnottellinudontwannaknow3188 yiu can't shift neither? Hahah Sorry bruh, must suck!
@@imnottellinudontwannaknow3188 IM FUCKING SCREAMING🤣
This is, BY FAR, the best sounding race this channel had in a looong time.
No stupid soft limiters, no stupid fake speaker sounds, no muffled engines. Just a couple of brute, awesome V8's.
Ironically, lexus has both, but they can be turned off.
One of the Best Sounding Drag Race on Carwow.
Not if you count the one with the LFA vs the LC
Watch Pista vs 720S vs Aventador
That Lexus could be one of the greatest cars ever.
Facts
When you see it in person, especially in white, it makes almost every single other car on the road look like they're from the distant past.
I’ve owned several F cars and driven a couple of LC500 V8s. Induction is awesome, quality fantastic but the lack of torque is frustrating (and that includes the ISF, RCF, GSF and the LC)
@@TeaVR that's one of the things 5hat can make it real nice to drive, you have to wind it out and use all of the rpms
@@dallasmellsop5488 yes, that’s a very valid point and on a really good road, wringing its neck is fun (although be warned, they are very highly geared!). It’s in these conditions that the Lexus 5.0 V8s fail.
In, a GT car, for me, I want it to dish out effortless A to B ability. Lexus are obsessed with the these cars getting into the highest possible gear as soon as possible, so making mediocre effortless progress is hampered.
Matt needs drive manual more, he's so slow to change gears 😂😉😉
His MX-5 is a manual
You need to stop using those emojis
@@samstruik3450 👍👌🖕
@@flydjuk kinda laughed at the middle finger ngl
Something's wrong. Yanni isn't mad in this episode. He's super nice and adorable. Is he fine? Is there anything we could do to comfort him?
That cuz he drive an LC500
Maybe he has covid and a ew side affect is joyfulness
We need a rematch on dry conditions
*Mustang is cool, but a Lexus LC500 is much better.*
better than your grammar.
Put that Lexus against a Shelby and we’ll see which one is much better
Look at the price
Maybe bc the Lexus cost 3 times what the mustang cost
@@robertotorresbenites1278 And the Lexus IS realible and better quality worked
Seriously who shifts that slow in a manual during a race!! Smh
This Lexus is simply one of the most beautiful cars ever...
yes its the most beatiful
It has 471 HP not 460 like carwow said
@@lanceryderwilson8618 yup, that's right
That's the ugliest car on the Planet with that front grill like a hair cutter xD
@@filipborin555 yes, Multipla lover
That MT82 is at it again with those clunky shifts. Every time he shifted the car slowed more and more. I love my 6R80 it NEVER misses or slows down, even with 112k miles.
LC 500 is an absolute beauty.
The V8 sound is so good to the ears..
People: Matt is shifting like a granny.
Granny: What y'all know about this
Yanni: shiftin like a wot? a Yanni? well ill be damned
Ya hes shifting is shit!!
The mustang with someone who knows how to shift gears is definitely a different race
No
@@TheV3la YES...numbers.are.there.
Gt stick vs GT auto..auto usually wins..a few tenths lost while shifting manually
Not even close
10 speed Lexus would eat a 6 spd old fashioned manual
That Lexus launch was absolutely pitiful and it still nearly won the 2nd race
@@seatoskyadventures6130 nah...
10 speed LC500
1/4 mile 13.0 s @ 109.8 mph
6 speed and 10 speed mustangs have no issue
12.6 sec @ 115.1 mph 6 speed
12.1 sec @ 118.8 mph 10 speed
Look at the traps man.
Even in the bid on a roll you can see the mustang leaving the LC in 2 gears until Matt bumbles the shifts and pusses out.
The LC500 is literally more then triple the price then the mustang in Oz lol. 70k ish for stang 240k ish for the lexus
In Lux a brand new Bullitt was 53k with the magneride suspension. A LC500: 120k
LC 500 is SUCH A PIECE OF ART!!! Such a machine!
Complete this sentence: My dream drag race line-up for 2021 would be...
MAT VS YIANNI RUNNING RACE
Matt vs Yanni
Chiron vs Turbo S
Mat vs yianni running race
I want the M4 2021 drag race with the AMG CL43
When is Matt vs Yianni, having a drag race on foot?
I want to see it 😂
When the very single comment is about the same running race maybe they will do it 🤣
@Pranav Paladugu - go back to the very first time this was mentioned I mentioned it like a year ago lmao
I saw one of those Lexus on the road last week, from memory the only one I’ve ever seen and it looked amazing, actually started looking on Autotrader and they are ~£59k at 2019 so good value from 90k new.
I've never really looked at Lexus cars before, and I've never seen the LC 500 on the road so I didn't know the thing existed. I checked randomly and everything I'm seeing is basically my dream car. Really looking forward to the 2024 model when it gets rid of the touchpad for an actual screen. Seriously considering purchasing one.
Mats shifting just needs a little more finesse
Just a LITTLE 😂😂
A lot actually. He could've beat Lexus properly but his gear changes weren't slick enough.
@@Amory98 exactly this.
Its not his car though he probably doesn't wanna thrash the shit out of the gearbox 😂 same reason he doesn't go nuts with the g wagon when doing off road challenges they're loaners
And this guy owns manual cars what the f**k is he doing
The interior noise difference in the roll race is insane. Shows what you’re paying for with the Lexus
I noticed that as well
99 cent ear plugs sound cheaper
That's what your getting for your extra 30,000.
and of course the interior and the looks.
@@Roderickdl 50k extra!
It would have been a closer race if Matt hadn't of take vacations between shifts
I love the fact Lexus LC 500 is a muscle car too
Can we talk about how quiet the Lexus was inside, compared to the mustang where the rain was so loud it sounded like he was just outside 😂
Yeh lexus cost like 30k more though lol.
@@Sython6 Worth it tho.
Google CC: "Its annie from anime"
Attack on titan annie reference
whatever youre smoking, i want two of it.
And instead of Lexus it was access 😂
The difference in cabin noise is astounding!
@Do One you do know that the lc500 has fake engine sound in the cabin right whereas the mustang does not
@@G0ddEityawesome what???
There ain't no fake engine sound...
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
@@G0ddEityawesome Kids, Lexus doesn't Offer Pumping Engine audio through the speaker on their LC500, It's pure Exhaust sound
@@G0ddEityawesome that’s the RCF, the GSF and LC500 don’t use fake engine noise, is pure induction sound.
@Do One the best in the business are the Germans
Do a drag race of 2 identical cars
Mat is shifting like my grandma
....better give him an automatic Mustang...,😉😂
Can we appreciate how they make really good reviews, Drag races and other stuff Almost daily and how much work that is
They really do but unfortunately you won't find much appreciation on RUclips. Just chronic complainers and angry people looking to prove who knows more about said topic.
That LC500 is a work of art.
Damn, that Lexus LC500, looks even more stunning and elegance while running..From those two cars, once you see both, you'll know which is sport luxury and which is racing car. LC500 is one of masterpiece from Lexus. The others are Lexus LF-A and the LC 500 predecessor, LC 460 which is the first pioneer of Lexus sport luxury car.
The other hand, Mustang is a muscle or racing car that only focus on power with V8 engine characteristic. Although they are from different class, but each has their own history and fans. Their both exhaust sound really great.
“Granny shifting, not double-clutching like you should.”
You don't need to double clutch a new car. Even Jay leno would just shift. I'd power shift from 2nd to 3rd
@@robertblanchard6196 It’s a line from The Fast and the Furious lad
He never had his car.
Caught the reference🤣🤣🤣
Imagine being a car guy and not knowing about the lexus lc500.
Right? I thought everyone knew the lc500 sounds amazing
It is a seriously underrated car
Yianni only goes for big expensive brands Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari and maybe the big BMW's and Mercs. I expect he didn't have it in sport+ mode on drag race either.
That's a shame
hes a rich guy not a car guy.
That Lexus is something else. What a beauty. Dream car.

The beauty of modern automatic gearboxes. That 10 speed will always stay in that perfect power band
Exactly, it doesn't lose the torque like the mustangs does when it shifts since its a manual. They should have done both automatic or both manual
@Chelsea Highlights there’s a 10 speed mustang
@@justinn6865 they should of used the 10 speed mustang for the perfect comparison
Should’ve used the mustang with the 10speed that thing is amazing. Now days if you want to go fast with a mustang you have to get the 10r80 10apeed. There is tons of guys running in the 8s In the 1/4 mile with that transmission and stock sealed motor with just power adders . He should’ve compared 10speed on 10speed. Manual is just to slow.
@@perfectdiversion there's no 10 speed Bullitt, and the GT is less powerful.
Finally non German cars! These sound so fantastic. No turbos is a glorious thing. I don't even care who wins. I just love not seeing de boring Germans. Plus exhaust please more like this! Save the manual
German cars are nice as well and not boring.
0-60 in 2.2 seconds qtr mile in 10 flat yep your right boring
So yianni is now getting a Lexus.. 😂
He looked well impressed.
He definitely hadn't been in a Lexus before
The LC500 for me.....that level of luxury is superb
matt actually changes gears in a manual like an old man ffs he cant drive manuals
