This is like when the V8 Vantage was launched in 2008 by Aston Martin, glorious looks, AMAZING SOUND, but sub standard times. But probably not what this car is about anyways. If i had the $$$ i would buy one, glorious!
Yeah this thing was definitely not built to go fast I've sat in one in a showroom and it's so damn comfortable and luxurious It's just meant as a super luxurious, comfortable and reliable grand tourer It also has a CVT, which definitely isn't the faster gearbox, but it's oh so comfortable
Weve been so dulled and lulled by high horsepowers, 0-100 and track times that we forget that absolutely none of that matters in the real world. Not to mention those numbers are only obtainable if ur a professional driver with access to a proper track. This thing sounds great, looks great, and though i havent been in one, im sure its a great place to be inside. And it has more than enough power for the common (and wealthy😅) man to handle.
I've driven the 2018 ls500h. It has the best interior of the class (certainly much better quality than the Mercedes S). The LC500 seems to be a more powerful, more compact and sportier version of that. It has to be the nicest sports car to live with and drive money can buy.
That's the point - Lexus pricetag, Aston Martin fit and finish, as well as exclusivity, given the sales figures so far, moreover, Toyota powertrain and general reliability, beyond than competitive price for something this well-made, this is just an exclusive recepie for success in future. A someday collective item rather than the best brand-new purchase that would double its price easily in the next few decades.
Talkditings dem And do you know it made it to Motor trend's Car of the Year awards finalist? I think it wouldn't have made it that far if it performs like a 2008 IS 350. Know your *FACTS* .
I think this car has the best sounding V8 in the world. Definitely in my top 3 which is the Mclaren P1, Alfa Romeo Disco Velanté and LC-500. But also the LFA😬 can’t decide.
Hell. Yeah!!!!! They say ladies love a guy with the fastest car in town. I think thats very true. My wife wanted me to buy this car just because the engine sounds hella badass.
This thing is way better than the BRZs and the new Supra. Toyota seems to have moved it's sports cars with Toyota engines to Lexus. It looks way better, sounds amazing and you get all that luxury. I honestly think Lexus is the best car brand there is. It literally ticks all the boxes, including the awesome reliability.
I know, it is a heavy car, and I am not saying it is slow, I just would have like to see it in the 4's. The new RS5 is very similar in weight and uses a 2.9L v6 and it can reach 100 in 4 seconds flat. It is also cheaper. Many other examples too...
Matt Smith Dont worry, this isn’t the full performance version, an F version will come out, that will most likely deliver many peoples performance needs.
I've heard that the new Honda Accord has the GPS that can show the gradient map (up hill and down hill) Can u make a test drive and show this function bro, thanks
This is obviously not in North America, but I would love to know why the tail lights flash under heavy breaking! Can we make the American version do this ?
can someone explain to me why you would get the LC500 when it has the same engine as the RCF?? you're essentially paying an extra 100k for the body styling..
There could be plenty of reasons. Different car, different country, different fuel, different temperature, different driver, (potentially a sponsored video with predetermined results?). All of these factors impact times. We don't think it's ever a good idea to compare different performance times between different channels/testers. If you compare carwow tests to their own tests, that's more reliable. The same with our tests. All of our videos are timed using a Racelogic Vbox Sport, usually with the same driver and same piece of tarmac. The only thing we can't control is the temperature/season, although we always try to test during cooler parts of the day in summer. Hope that helps.
but you get an interior nicer than a bentley or merc, while the kia is worse than even like a kia niro lmao. this car is all about the experience, it's so refined and luxurious. the ultimate GT in my option, with a gearbox and interior made for touring
At 1:39 "It doesn't sound very loud for a V8 sports car..."
At 1:52 "OK OK CHILL!"
it scared me coz it was quiet and slap me like a thunder
Hahaha
I thought the same too 😋😋😋😋
VVT-i kicked in yo...
Jason Wong 2:08-2:11 Hahahaha I love it!
THE best sounding Japanese V8 period.
TheM275 but the Lexus LFA
Indeed but he was talking about V8 only lol

G tubedude The LFA is an V12

It's like a bullet
Not the fastest car on the market but the best sounding ...
Not nearly...
Just get a bike for speed, Lexus for everything else!
I love Lexus... and clearly know what the r made for
Georgi Popov They're made for people that don't actually like performance cars but like others to think they have a performance car.
Nope, GT350 is the best sounding on the market right now.
What an amazing Japanese car sound!
LFA sounds better
Druid Cause its a V10
@@auramusic2135 it’s also 275k more but sure
@@auramusic2135 lmao no
We've had the Supra in the LC 500 all along...Its sorta like a spiritual successor
the Mk.4 Supra was actually based on the Lexus SC 300 too
Yea it's probably a good successor of the a80
We havnt forgot what they did to the lfa best sounding car ever
Many Italian cars would beg to differ

It is for me at least
this is the best sounding v8 change my mind
By far the best sounding V8 EVER!
God damn I fckng love that N/A V8 sound, fck european vacuum cleaners
Róbert Marko :D
Róbert Marko and Maserati?
No match for Maserati GT or 812 superfast
Holy shit this might be the best stock V8 sound since the V8 S5s of lore.
Looks absolutely stunning in that colour
Dang this thing sounds better than most Mercedes amg cars! 😜😁
1671 gaming well, it's sounds like AMG of past now they sound lousy, blame turbos for that..!?
w204 C63??? Hell no!!!
TheM275 Hell yeah! Lol

Smooth when I cruising, beastly when it's pushing.
Holy fuck, this is why I love Lexus! Best sounding v8 out there.
Pff, only 10 speed gearbox. My moutainbike has got 21 :D

Wow..wonderful sound
Probably the best car to buy on the market right now with a sound like that
I loved this car since the day i bought it for my 18th birthday. And when i rev that V8, it gets all the ladies attention 🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯🔥

Good lord, that bad boy sounds viscous!
BORDEL QUEL OEUVRE D'ART !
Ont dirais un concept car sortir 10 ans trop tôt !
I saw this in pics and videos and looks good, yesterday I saw the real deal in bright yellow and boy I thought it was an LFA. Looks so stunning
LEXUS NOT FASTEST IN THE WORLD NOT THE BEST BUT SMART AND VERYNICE I LOVE IT I LOVE LC 500
It seems the gasoline version gets more positivity than the hybrid version
Lexus has the best exterior styling out of all cars
What's the title of the video soundtrack? The introduction
Hell. Yeah!!!!! They say ladies love a guy with the fastest car in town. I think thats very true. My wife wanted me to buy this car just because the engine sounds hella badass.

Amongst the greatest gran touring cars ever built

What's with all that smoke at 1:52? and the bounce when it came to a stop?
The Car is Beauty And The Beast .

Best V8 sound ever. Period.
nope, best v8 sound is 360 challenge stradale.
Acting like opinion is fact LOL
This will kill your entire bank account
Riciero Delcosta worth it.
The people that can afford it probably make enough to buy a couple of these XD
Your channel is amazing
Sounds fantastic. I wish it was under 5 seconds though!!
Considering the car pretty much has no carbon fibre and full of fancy luxury materials, those figures are pretty good.
I know, it is a heavy car, and I am not saying it is slow, I just would have like to see it in the 4's. The new RS5 is very similar in weight and uses a 2.9L v6 and it can reach 100 in 4 seconds flat. It is also cheaper. Many other examples too...
To you it doesn't :)
Matt Smith Dont worry, this isn’t the full performance version, an F version will come out, that will most likely deliver many peoples performance needs.
Matt Smith it does 0-62(100kmh) in 4.7sec. I haven't seen anyone do 5+
Unbelieveble beautiful car!!!
Lexus ❤ magnifique voiture 💜
I should have bought the isf with 42k miles and it was only 27k 2 years ago now it’s too expensive this is my favorite v8 engine!
Ok, i don’t want to offend anyone here, but that sounds better than anything Lexus has ever made before, better than the lfa

New subaru is slow
Old is best of 1996-2008
Beautiful car
if this had a turbo or maybe a turbo straight 6 and a wing, it'd pretty much be a Mk.5 Supra
THAT SOUNDS SO GOOD👌
Como puedo conseguir uno? Llevo desde el verano pasado buscando uno, da igual color.
The spec game on this one is on point
I love it! It’s not the LFA but damn it looks and sounds just as cool. And it’s pretty fast for the price👍💓
2017 LC500? Wasn't 2018 the 1st year model they made?
sounds sweeeeet
Is this stock?
10 speed auto???!!!
maybe some swap from 5.7 v8 to 5.0 v8 LEXUS LX?
Me and my dad got 0-100 in 4.62 seconds in his Lexus GSF amazing engine.
Sounds amazing
Beautiful car.
Lexus has the best sounding v8 and v10 if they only had a v12
Holy hell is that thing angry! 😍
When other V8s grow up, they want to be a Lexus 5.0 V8
2:07, bro said, SEE YA LATER
This sound is te best put a intake and delete the resonator and will be a blast to hear
That bihh sounds good
Nice sound
Blue, tan interior spec, delicious.
Why is it so slow 0-100 & 400m???
V8
this or a Demon? sound-wise.
Super dizain,masina
Stock exhaust? Geeez!!
Yamaha makes the best of engines
can someone explain to me why you would get the LC500 when it has the same engine as the RCF?? you're essentially paying an extra 100k for the body styling..
I think this is more of a gt while the rc f is more of a sports car. The rc f also makes slightly less power
Amazing sound :)
Super sound😁👍
Thing is, the LC 500 sounds awesome on its own. But, in carwow's race, it sounded like trash 'cause it was racing against a LFA.
Japanese muscle car 💪
PD
LC 500 - 100 5.12
MUSTANG GT. 4.9
How come the Mustang Gt looses to the LC 500 in a Carwow drag race.

I'm very impressed with all your videos. Watched all of them
0-60 limited by traction
60-100 limited more by weight

I always prefer a nice v8 Sound to an v10. I dont like the high pitching Formel 1 screaming.
The LFA sounds better but this is still nice
sort of sounds like vtec. its so fucking eargasmic
$211K driveaway all to get your doors blown by a Kia stinger lol
