I really enjoy both reading your articles and watching your videos in RUclips channel. You started too late compared with other car review channels but you not only caught up well but also surpassed many of them! I think currently you are the best Australian channel in RUclips. I love the way you provide VBOX data for cars. Other channels only talk about cars without performing any kind of performance measurement which is boring. At first you only measured 0-100 km/h but later you added 0-200 km/h to your data panels.This is really great to see how high-performance cars perform after 100 km/h which is way more important than 0-100 km/h which is just a drag strip measurement. The only thing your reviews lack now is adding 0-160 km/h for normal and weaker cars. For example, you can measure 0-160 km/h time of Mazda 6 2.5L in the same way you measure 0-200 km/h of a Lamborghini Huracan. I think this will make your acceleration data more attractive and better for analysis. It doesn't do any harm if we can have a small top-end performance data (0-160 km/h or 100-160 km/h) for anything lower than a high-performance car.
This gets my vote, would love to see what lower performing cars do at higher speeds, considering traction isn't an issue it'll give a much better idea of the real gap between cars.

Carboy Dorifuto party slow ? this thing almost 500hp faster than %95 of the cars on the road. price wise you can now get one for around 60k and for that money i much rather have it over a german car like a cla45 or s3
Launch control looks like it holds at 1,500rpm? Is that lower than most? I’d imagine peak torque is quite a bit up from that in the NA V8... Awesome sound though!
It does look like it's bogging down off the line, 1,500 seems extremely low. I drive a GS450h which launches at over 3,000 and won't break traction even on a wet road, plus the transmission in that means the revs stay higher. Bit less powerful but it's still doing 0-60 in 5.2 so I have to assume this would be better off starting around 3,000 RPM.
I'm not trying to make fun of your driver but you can do much much better with the car by pushing it to the limit. Understand that you dont want to break the car but I've owned a ISF you can launch the car much much harder than what I saw in this video and they didnt even come with launch control. And you should also use paddle shifters it's not the same as D mode. You have to not be afraid to push the car to the limit
As slow as the LC500 is. Subaru STI times, better looking than the STI is, but i would rather save money, get the STI, which will do as well on the Track or better, and get the AWD and Off Road capabilities.

Talking about Lexus F, BMW M, Merc AMG etc faster than normal cars. If you've ever wondered why people buy BMWs the answer is right here in the comments. Most people are not buying a car. They are buying 0-100 times and other things they can tell their friends. What most people don't seem to understand (or don't care about) is those things don't matter unless you really are taking your car to the track on a regular basis which you probably aren't going to do. In everyday driving it doesn't matter whether your car has 500 or 600hp. Other things count and that is Lexus's strategy and as an everyday car Lexus is better than a BMW or an AMG. Funny thing is AMG used to be the car for people who wanted a comfortable car that is fast enough and reliable. But AMG saw BMW's strategy of more track oriented cars sell better than their own strategy. This is why they made a decision to start competing with BMW in their traditional market. Lexus basically took over the market AMG left empty. Nowadays if you want a BMW M car you buy a BMW M car or an AMG. If you want an RS Audi you buy an RS Audi. But if you want an AMG today you buy a Lexus.

Almost 100kw more than a kia stinger and a stock fg g6e turbo with similar kerb weight. Yet slower than both. 🧐🤔 Guess Lexus is just continuing their trend of being rediculously slow for their power to weight ratio.
Did you really just compare a Lexus to a Kia? Lol it is not even close to being slower. Compare their trap speeds. Even a stock 2015 RCF will murder that Stinger. The track edition would put buslengths on it

Nice noise comes out of this 5.0 liter V8! . But a 2019 Bmw M3 is Faster. An Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is faster . Even a Mercedes A45 AMG is faster!
Official time is 3.96 seconds 0-60mph, so 0-62 (100kph) must be almost the same, so it is on pair with its rivals that are also in the 4 - 4.5 category.
A Nissan GTR is faster than all of them, but since even the track edition won't ever see a track, it's irrelevant. This is a far more enjoyable car to own with only the Alfa (which is very nice) being even close. It's not like it's a slow car either- the fastest cars you're likely to see more than a few times a month in most places are things like a BMW 140i which won't get near one of these (or at least I hope not since a GS450h beats them, although not by a lot).
5.1 - 5.3 seconds isnt that quick for how much they are selling it for, the wing looks wrong and it just sounds bad, more like a v6, interior is nice that's about it.
It is too slow for a V8 Sports Car "Track Edition"? A street, dealer purchased off the rack KIA Stinger does 0-100kph in 3.9 seconds for 1/4 the price and this bs Track Car battles to do 5 seconds and nowhere near 4.3 seconds claimed by Lexus. It is not an LF for sure. It is NOT a Performance Car, it is a Slug!
Now THAT is an insightful, shocking comment. Until you said it, I would have assumed that Lexus are in fact Ikea, but since you've explained it I now realise that they are, in fact, Lexus. In case that wasn't clear enough, I'm being sarcastic.
Lexus always loose in every drags. Even my is200t has 7.4 s to 100 (lexus claims 7.0). On forums its well konwn topic, less power than oficially lexus claims. Never egain Japan car
You do realise that it's almost impossible to get the manufacturer's claim in the real world. Manufacturers test in ideal conditions with minimal weight. This is true for every car (with very few exceptions).
That looked very slow my golf 7 gti is faster to 200km and all I have is a software tune and a stock is20 turbo with a bigger turbine hec i bet it's even faster to 100km if my tyres dont spin too much
Agree, this is really slow for the power to weight ratio. 351 kw 1700 kg Should be pulling 4 seconds flat to 100 and 12 seconds down the quarter. A kia stinger or a old stock xr6 turbo would beat this lexus while having 80 kw less while weighing the same. 🤔🤔🤔 Just look at previous lexus that pdrive has tested, all of them are slow for the same reason.
In a race around a track this loses every time. For enjoyment on the road this wins every time, personally I drive on roads- this isn't exactly a slow car. That said, a standard RCF or an LC500 seems a better choice than this.

Almost 100kw more than a kia stinger and a stock fg g6e turbo with similar kerb weight.
Yet slower than both. 🧐🤔
Guess Lexus is just continuing their trend of being rediculously slow for their power to weight ratio.
Did you really just compare a Lexus to a Kia? Lol it is not even close to being slower. Compare their trap speeds. Even a stock 2015 RCF will murder that Stinger. The track edition would put buslengths on it
Fa 'Le because most people don’t drive on the track so it’s not a relevant number to them
@@aus10li 13.48 1/4 mile??????
The falcon and the stinger would do high 12 all day.
What more proof do you want that overpriced piece of shit lexus is slower.
The trap speed ???
The trap speed is the same dip shit.😆😆😆
The fuck difference does the track model make???
Were not racing around a track.
Were going in a straight line.😆😆😆😆😆😆
Geez lexus fanbois have panties tied in a knot.
Must be the rona virus
@@fale892 what else do you expect to look at?
This vid is about :
0-100
0-200
1/4 mile
Track times are irrelevant.
@@TheRfh901 LOL 13.48 1/4 mile? You crazy. Please, the trap speed is nowhere near close. Yes, straight line an RCF will win every time stock for stock. You know races go past 60 and 100 right? The Lexus will shines up top. The Stinger would lose pretty badly beyond 100
3.9 seconds ???
Nice noise comes out of this 5.0 liter V8! . But a 2019 Bmw M3 is Faster. An Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is faster . Even a Mercedes A45 AMG is faster!
Official time is 3.96 seconds 0-60mph, so 0-62 (100kph) must be almost the same, so it is on pair with its rivals that are also in the 4 - 4.5 category.
A Nissan GTR is faster than all of them, but since even the track edition won't ever see a track, it's irrelevant. This is a far more enjoyable car to own with only the Alfa (which is very nice) being even close. It's not like it's a slow car either- the fastest cars you're likely to see more than a few times a month in most places are things like a BMW 140i which won't get near one of these (or at least I hope not since a GS450h beats them, although not by a lot).
Even at this price range the infotainment system still be trash
needs proper exhaust
5.1 - 5.3 seconds isnt that quick for how much they are selling it for, the wing looks wrong and it just sounds bad, more like a v6, interior is nice that's about it.
Lexus biggest con this
RC F Track edition.
Lexus are like Audi’s just not a contender.
It is too slow for a V8 Sports Car "Track Edition"? A street, dealer purchased off the rack KIA Stinger does 0-100kph in 3.9 seconds for 1/4 the price and this bs Track Car battles to do 5 seconds and nowhere near 4.3 seconds claimed by Lexus. It is not an LF for sure. It is NOT a Performance Car, it is a Slug!
Lexus pls pls pls twin turbo or supercharger from factor ..
The LC F will have a twin turbo v8 engine
Lexus is Lexus...
Now THAT is an insightful, shocking comment. Until you said it, I would have assumed that Lexus are in fact Ikea, but since you've explained it I now realise that they are, in fact, Lexus.
In case that wasn't clear enough, I'm being sarcastic.
Only accountants buy things purely on numbers, try one yourself
Lexus always loose in every drags. Even my is200t has 7.4 s to 100 (lexus claims 7.0). On forums its well konwn topic, less power than oficially lexus claims. Never egain Japan car
You do realise that it's almost impossible to get the manufacturer's claim in the real world. Manufacturers test in ideal conditions with minimal weight. This is true for every car (with very few exceptions).
@@georgeschannel9411 take VAGs on dyno and any Lexus and let me know what conclusions
@@georgeschannel9411 true but when you have mercedes with the exact opposite,better real number than claimed,things like this are annoying
Старая М5, сильнее, прошлый век, слабо☝️
Nice Toyota 86
^moron.
A joke has to make sense and yours doesn't
x Conan kun x what the heck are you on about
lmaooo good one
Rcf is faster than anything made by subaru
Good R is easily faster 🤣
Fucking car
That looked very slow my golf 7 gti is faster to 200km and all I have is a software tune and a stock is20 turbo with a bigger turbine hec i bet it's even faster to 100km if my tyres dont spin too much
Your stupid golf isn't faster stop talking rubbish lol
Hey let's guess how many people give a fuck about your trash golf. My guess is 0.
Peice of garbage Volkswagen junk that nobody cares about
Another volkswanker driver that no one cares about who thinks their volkswanker car is the fastest thing on the road
Agree, this is really slow for the power to weight ratio.
351 kw
1700 kg
Should be pulling 4 seconds flat to 100 and 12 seconds down the quarter.
A kia stinger or a old stock xr6 turbo would beat this lexus while having 80 kw less while weighing the same. 🤔🤔🤔
Just look at previous lexus that pdrive has tested, all of them are slow for the same reason.
unfortunately too slow for a V8 ... He has no chance against the German competition...!
In a race around a track this loses every time. For enjoyment on the road this wins every time, personally I drive on roads- this isn't exactly a slow car. That said, a standard RCF or an LC500 seems a better choice than this.
Very brisk performance.
NAH WE AINT DRIVING NO LEXUS
Slow as fuck!!!!
Slow
Sounds like a v6
Dissappointing exhaust sound
Lol such a joke car...
1
slower than a golf R... horrible car for the money
For u best car is the quickest? Get out! U dont know s€&t about cars
Golf, most boring car on the planet like most German high maintenance unreliable money pits, like said, you clearly know nothing about cars 🤣👎👎
YOU RIGHT
M5 competition 2019 exhausts sound nicer than this Lexus!!
Absolute rubbish does it! German shite my arse!
Sounds like poo
You for real??? The Toyota/Lexus naturally aspirated V8 best sound car ever other than its V10 in the LFA.
@@ElleyElley-et4ky I dont think this car sounds good at all.. Lexus doesnt make tuff sounding v8s
@@FocusRS500 opinions vary. So what makes a TOUGH sounding V8? I'm intrigued
@@ElleyElley-et4ky what do you think?
The review is good, but thus car is not impressive.
