Used to work for Lexus and drove plenty of these cars. This video doesn’t do the sound of this car any justice, it sounds much much better in person. And this is coming from an ISF owner. The LC500 is divine.
Can you let us know what’s better between this bad boy and the all new Lexus IS500f? I can’t tell if it sounds better than the LC but damn Lexus did a hell of a job with the commercial of it
@@LifelsGreat I’m no longer with Lexus, but if I had to compare I would choose the new IS500. Way more compact with the same power and it’s exclusive and limited just like the LC500. You’re basically choosing the same rare animal.. only thing is.. do you want a 4 door sedan or a 2 door coupe?
Drove one in red color - the most epic experience ever and you double that if you go hard in the tunnel, it just shatters the earth. Did some rev limiter bouncing too, sublime!
There's a clear change in engine note right at around 3,800 rpm when the cams change over. Lexus has some of the best automatics in the business. They are regular old torque converters so you get the reliability over a DCT yet the shifts are still really really quick. And unlike most cars that shift for you while in manual mode, put any Lexus in manual mode and it'll bang off the limiter till the engine warps.
J J says the Lexus fanboy who trolls on Mercedes videos all the time! Lmao at you your disgusting double standards! "So shut the f up" AFTER YOU you pathetic hypocrite!!!
I own one these and I absolutely love it. You cannot imagine how much attention this car draws. I have the INFRARED color and I am constantly getting people chasing me, tailgating me, thumbs up. My son and I were driving in Seattle last summer on a sunny day. Some homeless guy started cussing at us. I put my window up just before the guy spat all over the window. No I didn't get out a beat the shit out of him because it's SEATTLE!!
Hello, Mike here. I designed the screws that hold the tachometer indicator in the Lexus LC 500 models with carbon fiber door sills. The patent ends in 2019 if anyone is interested in the assembly of the overflow line. I teach classes on Sumdays in Burbank if not in the area.
I love the car but i feel like it would've been so much more desirable had it been a second faster in the 1/4 mile, and they could have easily done this with a slightly more aggressive tune and an exhaust being a tad bit more 'unhinged' if you will. It gets 13.0 seconds in a 1/4 mile which is the exact same time my g37 gets and the lexus is over USD$100,000
Yes, I am also curious to know how's your set up and equipment used. I have never seen anyone execute an exhaust video as well as you did here. Two thumbs up!! Great job!
Pretty simple. An Audio Technica shotgun with Furry cat windscreen taped onto the rear exhaust wired into the cabin and recorded with a Zoom H4N. Thanks for the comment!
My god this car sounds awesome!! but how does this Lexus get better gas mileage then my 2002 lexus es300, my car only gets 19 mpg while this one boasts 28 mpg?
This engine which is also in the Lexus RCF can be red-lined all day without a problem. Forged connecting rods and titanium valves, not your ordinary type of car here.
Yes, but it's just because it's the average of multiple short trips from other auto journalists. If driven for a longer period, the average would be much lower.
Pain Yahiko had an honor to testdrive new LS500 2018 and i just started the car and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. You know the fuel economy was 199 L/100km but that does not say anything. Drove an Audi Q7 4.2 TDI 15.6 overall under NORMAL driving. So I do not see even 27 as a big number...
Jevgeni Ardassov 199L/100km? That's a lie. Even F1 cars going full tilt averaged better. That's 2 litters per kilometer. You will need to gas up every 75 kilometers driving the new LS if it consumes 199L/100km as you claimed. So if you're traveling from Los Angeles to San Francisco, you will need to stop for gas about 8-10 times just to get there.
nice sound, but honestly, 30 l/100km? what, you've got a range of 300 km on a tank? EVERYTHING will pass you, especially if you're taking a break to refuel. it may be NA, it may be a v8 but looking at the mileage, it just doesn't cut it. I was honestly expecting 15-18 l/100 max. And this guy didn't even hunt it on the autobahn to test the top speed...

You’re right. Even though I recorded the audio with some good gear, it’s not the same as being there. Thanks for the comment.
Wanna make your car sound like this? Get the X Force exhaust and do a muffler delete. It’ll sound like this but louder.

NA V8s sound fantastic.
*@everyday reviews* Is this actually how the tach looks or was it computer generated? Thank you for producing this video.
rcald2000 that is actually how it looks in real
This is actual video off the tach. Someone commented that it was a video game, nope. Its the real thing.

My God this sounds so good with headphones. Great recording!
Felix Vialva yep
Lexus taking one for the team and putting a NA V8 in a 2017 performance car.
It's not a performance car.

+Cecil L Haha. Surprised no one else has commented on me bouncing off the limiter.
Cecil L my mazda 6 also doesn't upshift automatically I love it
Cecil L cause they already know that a little limiter banging won't break anything. Cause after all it is a Lexus
That cvt gearbox is shit.
+Toyota Hachiroku trie
Sounds nicer then a c63
Evan Violin and costs more
that's not bad considering this is more a competitor to the s550 coupe which starts at $124k
Well c63 is turbo so at least it sound good without being any where of as much of mosquito gas guzzler which this lexus is.
Super car
But THURSTYYY and sloow

27 L / 100 km........I just heard a Prius owner whimper.
Just drove one of these last night, a MAGNIFICENT car.
I wont be getting up from my desk for a few minutes after this.
3:50 :O Orgasmic!!
Lol you like the engine hitting the Rev limiter??
im pretty sure it shoots some backfire when doing that...
Timo Klap unfortunately it does not :(
Timo Klap why do Lexus engines putter like that when you bang off the rev limiter?
Chaos Zombie999 why do Lexus engines putter like that when you bang off the rev limiter?
This is why RUclips was invented.
It sounds definitely so good
But when I listen to the LFA screaming
Every other car sounds shit to me
LFA is something else
It's like an Alien Kraken
Ugh, "LFA" doesn't sound nor look aesthetically pleasing to me.
LFA sounds like a formula one car.
"Screaming" means no torque shitbox. High redline = ultra weak car, built to last 25K miles tops.
so and so who doesn't know f all about high revving engines just had to chime in and give his 2 cents worth
The almighty V8 in it's natural habitat
Sounds so eargasmic I need one

I applaud you. You’re a pacifist and a much better man than me.
I woulda still been there stomping a mud hole in him this very moment as we speak.
3:48 😭❤
Lexus and Mercedes-Benz are killing the game
3:49 the best sound😩😩😩

Gorgeous sound... What a lovely cAR
Thank Lexus for this beautiful NA V8 sounds amazing better than all those turbocharged v8s.
Ngl. I have one and I wish it was twin turbo. I like the noise and it could use at least another 100hp
So your Saying this thing Gets to 70 kmph speed in first gear ... yeah I'm in love
I'm surprised it let you hit the rev limiter like that. Awesome.
That’s how a V8 should sound!
So quite on 7th gear, but....
3:48 wowowoowwowwowo
Melody to my ears:)
27 L/100 km holy crap that's an expensive joy ride
+hypno159753 Yup. Not cheap. Just need 100k more views to pay for the gas now. 😜
Everyday Reviews lol
6.9l/100km on my civic
1L/100km on my Prius
bruh thats barely 9mpg. I could have more fun in a corvette and get triple the milage.
That is just... mmh. 👌
Music to my ears.
all the german fanboys are butthurt bc lexus can actually make a sports car that’s reliable 😂😂😂
Of course they can. Japanese (sports) cars are the most reliable (sports) cars in the world.
And i am german
amazing sound
@3:16 you can hear the VTEC kick in yo! Seriously though, at 3,500 rpm you can hear the change of the engine note.
abcdabcd151993 There's no VTEC there. It's not a Honda.
Toyota = VVTI ...
@@tropicalstorm339 the same thing with different name
Is this stock exhaust?
Yes, showroom stock
Everyday Reviews that’s loud for showroom stock though...
Chaos Zombie999 There’s a microphone next to the exhaust on the outside
Matt Eh, it could be louder for stock. But they’re not pitching this as an F car so it’s acceptable.
This shit sounds like a fucking monster!!!
After watching this video I went to go buy an LC 500
Sounds amazing, looking to buy one for my dad next year.
Is this stock?
I think i need to take a shower after hearing this thing
3:47
Pure pleasure
Awe-mazing!!
Funny how sometimes the tach needle seems to jump ahead of the engine on upshifts.
Driving this is like playing an instrument 🎶
The Genesis coupe could had and should had made with the 5.0
Toyota sure did well ;)
you mean Yamaha.
@@ps.6023 yamaha didnt make the ur engine
@@HobbsCedric1 no just one of the major imporatnt components that helps give it it's sound... The head.
@@ps.6023 I actually didnt even know yamaha did that
@@HobbsCedric1 Yamaha is basically the reason why Toyota engines are so good esepe y high performance engines line this, the 1jz and the 2Jz engine.
See you in 15 years in the hood
🔥🔥🔥
Just asking. Does is makes shoot sound like hold full gas but not turning gear?
Best sound
Sounds amazing. For that price i want more performance though.
I made my IS F sound like this but louder. I’ve driven the LC through Beverly Hills and it’s ashamed how quiet it is compared to other exotics 🤣
Try driving a new NSX along with some Lambos and Ferraris. It’s waaay to quiet but an amazing piece of technology and razor sharp handling.
Who the freak wants a car that wakes up 2 city blocks at night? Only trash people
What mic did you use?
Audio technica shotgun recording into a Zoom H4N. Sorry can’t remember the mic model.
I love the car but i feel like it would've been so much more desirable had it been a second faster in the 1/4 mile, and they could have easily done this with a slightly more aggressive tune and an exhaust being a tad bit more 'unhinged' if you will. It gets 13.0 seconds in a 1/4 mile which is the exact same time my g37 gets and the lexus is over USD$100,000
Right that 13.0 seconds is the same time as a Chevy sliverado high country 6.2 v8
But LFA Is the best sound in the world ♥️
When are we going to see a video of this hitting max speed? I do more than 150kph on the 5km to work everyday.
It sounds like it has an active valve exhaust system... or is there a mic...
Engine notes are piped to the front. No speakers and no fake sounds
nice
+EDDY SENG Thanks. Thought I would do something a little different and share this beautiful exhaust note.
will just fucking send the damnn thing 👿
That sounds when he hits the rev limiter
Why is it the best exhaust??
Why so many dislikes??
No idea. Haters gonna be haters. Guess people just don't like the sound.
Master Yoda lmaoooo
No RPM ?
Only V8
is this pure engine noise or is it augmented by pre-recorded engine sound fed through the speakers ?
+Sankar Narayanan This was pure exhaust audio recorded from a microphone mounted at the rear bumper.
what kind of microphone did you use? sounds amazing
Yes, I am also curious to know how's your set up and equipment used. I have never seen anyone execute an exhaust video as well as you did here. Two thumbs up!! Great job!

Thank you so much. That is awesome! Never heard of Zoom H4N before. Just checked their website. That is awesome gear. Thanks again!
3:49 that's audio porn for me
OMG! 27 litres / 100 km ? Even a Ferrari doesn't use that much fuel!
+TheMister Mann To be fair, the fuel economy is skewed because it had been driven hard on short trips from a bunch of auto journalists.
Even a small engine like a 1.6L can go much higher than that if you just drive slow and then rev and so on
My god this car sounds awesome!! but how does this Lexus get better gas mileage then my 2002 lexus es300, my car only gets 19 mpg while this one boasts 28 mpg?
1 year late, but whatever.. Those are not MPG, those are liters/100km, and it translates to about 8 or 9 MPG, I think
Downshift 😢❤
Lexus dominated with the best sounding engine with the V10 LFA and thought that wasn't enough. Now they also have the best sounding v8 lmaooo
I’m pretty sure it’s that loud the microphone makes it distorted lol
Love the note! Music and orgasm to the ears!
where was the flat out 0-60?
The sound 👌😿♥️
how did you make that popping sound at 3:50?. does anyone know?
Hung he redlined it it’s not great for the engine lol
The rev-limiter kicked in creating that exhaust sound
This engine which is also in the Lexus RCF can be red-lined all day without a problem. Forged connecting rods and titanium valves, not your ordinary type of car here.
RaceGT 33 with two oil pumps also! One to lubricate the engine internals, the other to return it back to the oil pan so it’s never starved for oil!
Whoda Hellru Not to mention two high pressure fuel pumps as well.
can you make a video like this with the lc 500h?
I did a review but didn't do the exhaust and tach like this one. If I get another chance I will.
Everyday Reviews I know, I saw both (great reviews btw).. but I'm curious to see the multistage powertrain working
Sounds like an AMG
Disagree. AMG has a LOT more rasp. This is old school baritone V8.
Hi rev engine’s are the best
0-3000 tach sounds like old ford bronco, almost like a truck :D
Is it true ? 26l per 100km?
Yes, but it's just because it's the average of multiple short trips from other auto journalists. If driven for a longer period, the average would be much lower.
Pain Yahiko obviously if you're flooring it all the time and keeping the rpm high it's not going 2 b good
Pain Yahiko doesn't a prius get almost 20l /100km when on a track?
Pain Yahiko had an honor to testdrive new LS500 2018 and i just started the car and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. You know the fuel economy was 199 L/100km but that does not say anything. Drove an Audi Q7 4.2 TDI 15.6 overall under NORMAL driving. So I do not see even 27 as a big number...

OMG Sound.......
If this car weighed less than 4000 lbs and had 500+ hp ...
It's more about the ride getting there and the less about the time
LC 500 is like having a Mustang but made by a Japanese auto-manufacturer.
It sounds like the mustang gt tbh with a custom exhaust
All those early shifts... haha.
Sweet ride though. I want one. Lol.
26 litres goes 100m what???
On sport+ mode plus push it that hard it's Logical
3:49!!! OMG!!
You ok bro ?

Sounds and looks soooooo good but is sooooo dang slow!! This should be a 3.7 easy to 60 car / and it just breaks 5 seconds
It looks amazing and sounds great too but it's too expensive and for the money u pay for this u could get a much quicker car.
