@B. L Then it's simply not for you and I. Let the wealthy people enjoy it. I probably will never be able to afford it but I wanna see it roaring on the road. Thanks Lexus!
Kirk, thanks for the info, much appreciated. Given how much news we've heard about this "LFA II" I think its safe to say that something is coming out. We are getting more details about this than the new 4runner, and I keep hearing that a new 4runner is coming too. As for the LC, very pleased to hear about these improvements and a bit shocked at the trans cooler, an addition that is long overdue. Perhaps Toyota is getting more serious in taking on the Germans in the performance car space.
3:14 As a fellow enthusiast i dont want EV but i will happily take hybrid because i get both. And as of late we are getting the better end of both of those sticks, great power, great efficiency, and relatively low weight compared to earlier systems. So its a net win win. Oh and its far cheaper, and less of a supply chain strain and less devastating for the environment. Id say that's a Net x 4!
Hi Kirk, I am really excited about the new Lexus LC 500 coupe however, I was wondering when there was going to be more in for it for information on the Lexus LC 500 convertible on the other hand. I am very excited to see what the TX and the GX are going to look like and all the specifications with those vehicles … excellent video I am so excited to wait for tonight… keep up the great work Kirk!🇯🇵❤️🤍🌎⭐️✈️👍😇🙏💜✝️🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐕🇨🇦🇮🇹🇺🇸
So I take it that the LFR will share the platform with the Lexus Electrified Sport concept we've been seeing around. Hard to image each will get their own platform to work from I would expect it to be handled similarly to the Mercedes GT, which it seems to be modeled after in design, offering options in the $120k range, around 500 HP. up to the 900 HP. which can reach $200k
12:43 Wow they added a at oil cooler. Its the first thing to go at the track the transmission temp spikes. My take away is this mode allows for more direct control of the AT? Thats good because i find myself having denied shifts more than id like.
11:41 The update cycle you speak of is fantastic for upper end models where you want ppl to be able to buy a great looking car that has legs to last 10 years design wise only spending money under the skin to update. Digging deeper you realize that give you a bonus to your resale with customers knowing what they are getting into. Much like a 911 that doesn't change over time but mechanically its always updated opposed to a Korean car which is updated every 2 years making you feel you HAVE to get the new one or your behind the "trend". Ppl who understand money value that which again only matches up with higher end cars.
Hey Kirk, just curious what your thoughts of what the next UX will be like considering all the advancements and improvements that Lexus is pushing out lately? It's the one model that would be a perfect all around vehicle if it was put on the same platform as the NX and used a traditional automatic for its hybrid system to go head to head with the X1, Q3, & GLA. Do you think we would see some mild hybrid versions of their models?
Wouldn't get your hopes up, it's an entry level vehicle. A likely powertrain would be from Corolla Cross Hybrid which would increase HP but is not going to be any exciting.
@@Frost1758 I figured that might be the case. Looking at the LBX for Europe, that level of design will be a nice change, but I would hope they would shift some performance to their smallest US model i.e. detuned Corolla GR engine or even a beefed up 2.5L/8AT like the NX (24c/32hwy mpg) as base model. The old 2.0T engine seems to have vanished, so Lexus does need something at the bottom end that people can get excited about.
8:46 Kirk they have LC's sitting in the show room with this set up sans the katana still chrome and I've said i wanted it vapor chromed but haven't got back to me. I might have to seek that else where and have them wrapped maybe. But the rear diffusers, the lights all that stuff is now being done at the dealer and it looks great IMO. I think Lexus, like cadilak in 90's when old ppl were putting gold packages at the dealer after the fact now do it in house. Because oh i dunno PPL LIKE IT. Its funny how slow they are to react to taste.
@@chezzyperson3339 GM is apparently working on a new V8, and I don't know if Ford is continuing or if the new Mustang will be the last, but I do know that Dodge just completely dropped the ball
Lexus, listen to me! If you make this with carbon fiber or if you stupidly make it with non-metal trunk or roof, then the INSURANCE RATES WILL KILL THIS CAR'S SALES.
A hard earned lesson learned on the LC500 is that Americans hate runflats. Hakujin is pronounced with the "jin" pronounced as "gene". This is because the i is pronounced as the LONG e.
Hakugin means silver, platinum, snow, and prosperity. But, if you’re going to say it means, a white person, it is funny that the exterior color is white and has a blue interior as in a white person with blue eyes.
Honestly doesn’t sound that crazy. I hope the “LF-R” is what the 911 is to Porsche, you know? I hope it has multiple variants for example: LF-R (NA V8 500hp and Manual Transmission and DCT) 911 GT3/Touring competitor) LF-R Nür GT3 (NA V8 525hp and DCT and more aero and a little power bump) 911 GT3 RS competitor) LF-R Nür GT2 (TT V8 hybrid 900hp+ DCT and a lot more aero and power) 911 GT2 RS competitor) Styling think LFA/Nurburgring edition and honestly RX7 Fortune Veilside Price range $90k-$250k Weight range 3000lbs-3300lbs Horsepower range 500-1000hp Length 177in-182in Other specs: Front mid engine 8 into 1 header/exhaust setup Dual exhaust tips/exit Carbon Ceramic brakes optional for the “LF-R” but standard for the “Nür GT3/GT2”
Mistake with LFA was front-engine. Already too many bulky front-engine GTs or whatever, Aston Martin, AMG, Vette, need serious mid-engine, hybrid welcome. And get ahead of any new. Nissan GTR
6:40 oooo I WIN! Yea right. Really you think 170k for a base model utilizing the GT3 500HP set up? Or do you think that would be a race only set up with the peeps getting the hybrid set up?
Why don't they put a faster engine inside an LC500 and call it a day? I know who wouldn't want another LFA but the LC500 can be a perfect car competing with the new DB12.
It's heavy already and they very much aren't gonna sacrifice the creature comforts in place of less weight with it. Along with the engine bay being pretty tight as is so they'd have to work around it just to fit turbos and etc just to add more power.
This car will be in the 300k so not everyone can afford it. Toyota and Lexus shall put the Lc 500 RCF v8 adding turbocharged, will hit all time high sales
The trans cooling is big news! I've had issues with mine where I got overheating warnings on my dash. They probably got a lot of feedback from current owners and from the Lexus Performance Driving School, since they use LC's on that....job well done Lexus 👏
It's time Lexus stops behaving like an average car maker and be the luxury carmaker they should be. Persons in the luxury car market want max luxury, power, and regular updates to car models. Automobiles in this segment shouldn't go un 5:42 changed for a decade. This is why the Germans are winning. Also, in the year 2025, 900 horses may seem tame.
This LFA 2.0 GT3 is an Iconic design already like NSX... This is a man’s supercar no doubt... 900 hp is insane and that's how you play their game...I'm going to shut up and trade my dodge viper...Bring it on Lexus
9:31 BOOOOO LEXUS. I know you hear and read this. Im a LC owner and I don't like the tacked on touch screen, I don't like you taking the track pad away. Funny how BMW folks love the Idrive knob WITH the touch so they can do both. I don't like that you removed the clock. Everything else is well done.
Hmm, the Gt was designed by Toyota and should have stuck to the Toyota lineup. Still can't believe Toyota made this wonderful design and handed it over to Lexus.... We want a Toyota V8 sport car / muscle, too.
@@will.davlin W comment. The amount of potholes I see in Miami is insane. Hopefully the standard version has at least what the original LFA had (4.6 in)
The LF was amazing and remains a legend today. However, given todays world and auto environment I just don't see them every bringing it too market in North America...
@Kirk Kreifels The Hakugen white color/phrase about silent silver might mean the actual paint code will be white w/ silver flake, and react to light like a movie theater screen….making it the most stunningly beautiful paint code 🙌🔥
The lfa was a remarkable car, and top car enthusiast found out about it too late. Jeremy clarkson said it was the best car he ever driven, hope he can say the same for this one. Clarkson owned one too, and he has driven every supercar under the sun.
Better late than never. But likely out of practicality for most people. One thing I hope they get out of this project is developing a great feeling electronic steering rack, and better pedal feel for all of their vehicles

Any word if Yamaha will be involved this time around?
They are basically working for Toyota partially, so most likely they will have a role in this.
Toyota has owned part of Yamaha for decades and that's why they collaborate. Yamaha will definitely tune the exhaust system and co-develop the heads.
Hi Kirk,
I am really excited about the new Lexus LC 500 coupe however, I was wondering when there was going to be more in for it for information on the Lexus LC 500 convertible on the other hand.

I hope this car does the same thing LFA nurburgring package and Toyota 2000gt did. Become the fastest car at the time of release
Is it really not possible in 2023 to put out reliable 500 HP from the 5 L NA V8 engine? for many years has this engine the same HP.
8:08 I have that idea for my LC. Instead of black i want to do vapor chrome ... 😋 yeeeeeah.
Gosh DAMN I never clicked on a video so fast in my life lol

Just for some clarification "Hakugin" translates to snow or silver. "white person" would translate to "Hakujin". A tiny change but a big difference.
A hard earned lesson learned on the LC500 is that Americans hate runflats. Hakujin is pronounced with the "jin" pronounced as "gene". This is because the i is pronounced as the LONG e.
Hakugin means silver, literally white silver-not to be confused with hakujin, which is white person. Kachiiro is dark indigo.
Haku means white Gin means silver.
Word you are thinking of is GaiJin which means white person. Gin=\=Jin
Having heard in person the V10 screaming, is sure going to be missed. But glad that Toyota still going for ICE instead of soulless EV.
I'm no engineer or mechanic... But do people think over 670kw a bit too much for just rwd?
Hakugin means silver, platinum, snow, and prosperity. But, if you’re going to say it means, a white person, it is funny that the exterior color is white and has a blue interior as in a white person with blue eyes.
At least the Japanese don't participate in the hyper woke game of worrying about offensive crap.
With the very long nose and short back, its PERFECT! It looks like a batmobile.
7:35 no, it's not haku jin, it's haku gin (pronounced with a hard G); Gin means gold, so this means "white gold' aka platinum in the west.
Watch it be 4500 lbs, lol
Lexus builds boats
If its leightweight(like the lfa) it will be unattainable
Why couldn’t they bring back the V10? I don’t know if even Yamaha can tune the exhaust to sing as sweet with a V8.
I'm not gonna hype because I don't trust Romurs about Lexus LFA2 or LFR.
Electric front wheels would be awesome.
Yep I agree.
Hakugin is white silver. Gin means silver.
Hakujin is white person.
The new LFA is gonna be an EV, but they may be making a V8 version as well.
I definitely got to save a lot of coins for this next Lexus super car!
The ICE instantly makes it better than Porsche's Mission X
A unique slimy feeling creates a strange atmosphere.
Honestly doesn’t sound that crazy.
I hope the “LF-R” is what the 911 is to Porsche, you know? I hope it has multiple variants for example:
LF-R (NA V8 500hp and Manual Transmission and DCT) 911 GT3/Touring competitor)
LF-R Nür GT3 (NA V8 525hp and DCT and more aero and a little power bump) 911 GT3 RS competitor)
LF-R Nür GT2 (TT V8 hybrid 900hp+ DCT and a lot more aero and power) 911 GT2 RS competitor)
Styling think LFA/Nurburgring edition and honestly RX7 Fortune Veilside
Price range $90k-$250k
Weight range 3000lbs-3300lbs
Horsepower range 500-1000hp
Length 177in-182in
Other specs:
Front mid engine

Carbon Ceramic brakes optional for the “LF-R” but standard for the “Nür GT3/GT2”

The Viper's actually not the first with that body style
Why don't they put a faster engine inside an LC500 and call it a day? I know who wouldn't want another LFA but the LC500 can be a perfect car competing with the new DB12.
It's heavy already and they very much aren't gonna sacrifice the creature comforts in place of less weight with it. Along with the engine bay being pretty tight as is so they'd have to work around it just to fit turbos and etc just to add more power.
Besides, Toyota wants to have a slice of the GT3 race car pie. An LC 500 isn't exactly something that can be converted to race in that category.
Buy heaps of Lx's to get a shot at the new beast
