it is beautiful hey?. I have a couple of them around near where i live. (Not the convertible as i don't think that has been released here yet) . Not the fastest car but definitely stunning.
Man how many other channels with 400k subs are this active in their community? I can't think of any. This man out here grinding to give us this content and still takes the time to respond to a lot of comments and interact with us peasants. Much respect Joe. Keep it up
Thanks Andrew! I really appreciate you saying that. I don't consider you guys peasants. LOL You all make the channel what it is and I am very grateful.
Gotta think you're underrated for your long takes. You hit a lot of information in one cut without "ums" and "uhs".. Too many youtube car videos are cut happy. Respect the Raiti.
I have one of these, had it for a few weeks, the car is such a treat to drive. Had the top down today, 51 degrees out, the climate concierge does a super job of keeping us comfy (windows up) on the surface roads and the highway
Just picked up a 21' Convertible. Amazing build quality and a blast to drive. Not as fast as other cars I've owned but nothing else rides or sounds like it. I don't need the speed now as much as I do the overall pleasure of the drive. NO storage space, so don't bother looking. Not even a seat back pocket. Windsreen can't be put down while the top is up. View is blocked. Still Love the car.
Had the pleasure to drive the LC500 Coupe in SF last summer for the day and drove up Highway 1. Pleasure to drive and very comfortable. Best Engine Sound of any car I have driven and made me smile the whole time. Well worth the price and you get something that is very unique.
Exhaust notes brings smile on face none of any musical instruments can make the sound... If Ur ready I am ready where to meet for a cross country ride man. You made my day one of my favourite car.
This is the most beautiful car in production today. More beautiful than the ferrari Roma, any Aston. It’s just so perfectly proportioned, the rear haunches and tail lights are my favorite part.
WOW...what a nice car. 5.0L V8 471HP with a beautiful interior and great looking exterior. I love the naturally aspirated 5.0L V8. The motor just growls and it's got plenty of raw power. Great review man! I'd love to have one!
My new favourite channel! Great job mate, another fan from Australia! I'm an American/Canadian expat living in Australia, so great to see such detailed, informative videos on vehicles in the States! Great to compare what we get versus you guys. Used to be the US wouldn't get so many great cars the rest of the world got. And glad you guys get the joy of cars like Alfas now. The Giulia QV is truly a masterpiece for the masses. Keep up the great videos!
I’m looking forward to this one Joe! I enjoyed watching your videos on the plane yesterday! The plane was late so the pilot did some ON THROTTLE and went full speed most of the way LOL
Fantastic review Joe as always. Bought a red coupe 4 weeks ago and my wife and I are just loving it, best car we’ve ever owned. The number of positive comments we have received is amazing. My co-pilot uses the track pad on the move. Don’t know what the problem is as the the driver should keep their hands on the wheel and not fiddle with it.
Just got my 21 convertible. Love it. Traded a 997.1 for it and I am not missing the Porsche at all. The pops and engine noises of this thing is amazing.
he LC 500 is undeniably one of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen. I own a 2021 red convertible, and even when I’m not driving it, I find joy in just admiring it parked in the garage. While there may be faster or more expensive cars out there, I challenge anyone to find one more beautiful. I’ve even named mine Halle Berry, since having the real Halle Berry isn’t an option!
Way better than a touch screen. Plus Apple car play Android Auto you don't need it. You shouldn't be using a screen while driving anyway and that is the only convenience of a touchscreen. You can just say destinations these days you don't need to type anything which was a good use for a touch screen years ago.
Great Review and better camera work there, giving his wife some love! I have #79 of the Inspiration Series and if you thought this car couldn't get any better, well, check out one of the 100 made for the world. Amazing doesn't begin to describe it. Best Lexus ever, or perhaps tied with the LFA.
Here's my view....no question the vehicle is tops. I'm buying a Mustang GT convertible all day and taking the extra 50k and driving all the great roads in the USA lovin' life....including eats & a comfy room. " On throttle " in my travels.
The car is absolutely stunning... I hope to get one after they swap out the infotainment for Lexus Interface. Biggest complaint during my test drive was that you can't see a significant portion of the hood while driving- about 2-3 feet of blind distance, and I'm 6'2
Just picked up one of these in Nori Green Pearl. I have put 145 miles on the Odometer so far (no time to drive just yet and my commute is from my bedroom to my home office).
This is a truly stunning car (prefer the coupe) and they are already down to $65k for a fresh used one, watching these values closely because I would love one of these. Great job again Joe- you rock!!
This is for the rich - used is never fresh. It is like saying an ex-stripper is fresh. You dont knw where it’s been. Buy new what you can afford. Buy smart, you nver fall victim to depreciation and keep it longer.
ray doherty sure thing... low mileage for me is 10miles on odometer. Ya it is a toyota, every 4-5yrs you change tires (rubber expires after 6yrs), breaks etc. Not to mention brand new cars are cheaper to insure and lower financing rate. Why would I spend money on a second hand when I am about to hit a milestone. Plus the warranty.. your A/C dies on you thatll be thousands. Keep it for 10yrs, sell it, I bet you the amount of money youd spent would be the same. So, new it is and keep it for a long time. Some ppl jst dont do research and only knw what a regular joe know - thats what they dont want you to knw.
What a sweet ride! Tell the truth, Lori. Did you want to just put the camera down, say to heck with the video, and go cruise in that glorious weather? Thanks so much for bringing us this special car
Worked for Lexus for 2 out of 20 years in the car business. Only sold 1 SC 430 used to a guy from Canada. They didn’t sell well but they were beautiful! 😉
On mine you just push the speak button and tell the car what I want and it happens. Screw the touch screen, it’s overrated! If you really have one, you’d know this. This LC 500 is the shiz nit!
Toasted caramel, and you want a candy bar??? Joe, I'm a connoisseur, I'll have a cream wafer... (Holds pinky at an impossibly elegant angle as he sips 7up from a mason jar)
Lexus presumably has access to the Toyota parts bin - so why do they persist with the track pad for the infotainment system? It is the one feature of this otherwise awesome car that is universally disliked by various reviewers. Lexus really needs to get with the program here.
You reviews are always amazing. Would you go with the 2021 Lexus LC500 (coupe) or the 2021 Jaguar F-Type R? Both cars are similarly priced at around $100k. Would would you go with?
Thanks for the great review, 👍🏻🍺🍺🍺 Always a big fan of cars with simple lines, ,, less scoops,less vents,less spoilers, etc.... this one is magnificent.

All things considered, this has got to be one of of the nicest GT's on the market. Still stunning.
You are so right about that!
it is beautiful hey?. I have a couple of them around near where i live. (Not the convertible as i don't think that has been released here yet) . Not the fastest car but definitely stunning.
What’s a GT?
Power and sound when you want it but not that you'd end up across the road like some supercar Lambo or Porsche.
A few thing make it a poor choice to purchase. Maybe a lease. But i wouldnt pay for that thing

Thanks man for saying that! It really means a lot!
the dislikes are from the headphone users that got deaf from the amazing sound, I love this car
LMAO! Naturally aspirated V8 goodness!
I love the 2021 vette for half the pricetag tyvm. Chevrolet didnt cram 2 “back seats” in their 2 door lol
I have one of these, had it for a few weeks, the car is such a treat to drive. Had the top down today, 51 degrees out, the climate concierge does a super job of keeping us comfy (windows up) on the surface roads and the highway
Thanks for sharing that great input from your experience!
I own a Nori green one. It is amazing!!!
@@konnierad what color would you advice me to get.
This is my dream car, i will be buying this in 5 years 🤞
Dream big!
She's a beauty! I hope you get it!!!!
@@rickrolled2691
Me too. I hope you buy it fully loaded,
You don't need to pay extra for fully loaded sport options.
This car ain't no racer. It's an extra fine grand touring car.
4 years left, any change in your car considerations?
“I’ll even let you touch it”. Classic! I tell em that all the time, unfortunately, no takers.
LMAO! You are freaking hilarious!
This is how to do a large front grill. Take notes BMW.
AGREED!
This is designed grill. Bmw's grills are just 2 bbq grills they find somewhere and glue them on
I’m actually liking the big grill now
@@TTGamingTrinh lmao
@@TTGamingTrinh BWHAHAHAHAHHAAH! OMG!
Bought the white one with red interior. I can't myself out of this car. It's a dream to drive.
Still have it?

I have the 2018 coupe , and it is worth every penny ! Especially buying used.
Thanks for sharing that great input!
Seeing that MOST car buyers will never have a chance to own a LFA..... this convertible beauty is a worthy alternative 🍻😉💯

Sup Joe. Don't like convertibles but this LC 500 is on another level
I am so glad that you liked this one.
I'm not a big fan of soft-top convertibles myself,but whichever one you prefer,😉the LC500 is definitely 👍. 😏
@@RaitisRides Yep
This is the most beautiful car in production today. More beautiful than the ferrari Roma, any Aston. It’s just so perfectly proportioned, the rear haunches and tail lights are my favorite part.

Very interesting car this is the cars Lexus shall focus on and make more of these great stuff I really love this one soo unique and beautiful designed

3:07 someone found your secret location Joe. 😁
This is the fastest that I've been on your videos. Nice car, watching the rest of it rn.
Thanks brother! I appreciate you making me smile.
Absolutely gorgeous convertible! And that sound is insane. Another awesome video!!
Thanks Sam for letting me share it with you!

I love it when they do that! You will love the sound of this one.
If I was lucky enough to own an LC, it would be a coupe. That V8 has an intoxicating sound. Best looking automobile on the market in either form imo.
Thanks Wayne for letting me share it with you!
Still a styling stunner.Years ahead of anyone!
If they fixed that touchscreen, this could be the best GT car ever made.
AGREED!
Just looked at the hardtop yesterday you’re telepathic, killer car and review.
It was serendipity! Thanks for letting me share it with you!

@Saiga King - He signed with the Rockets
Thanks Louis!
How are you Joe? LEXUS LET'S GO!!!
I am doing well my friend! Let's do this!
@@RaitisRides Yeet!
Just got my 21 convertible. Love it. Traded a 997.1 for it and I am not missing the Porsche at all. The pops and engine noises of this thing is amazing.
not a fan of convertibles, but the car does look good.
I know how you feel!
I’m not a fan of blueish cars or brown interior but I’m not really a fan of Lexus but I like how this car looks
Damn the convertible is what really makes this car stand out.
I like this car, but honestly a RC F is the dream, just hope the after market catches up
I love these cars, because with their reliability and resale value.
My, my what a beautiful car. Great review Joe as always 👏
Thanks for letting me share this one with you!

Exterior: I'm not a big fan
Interior: I love it
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
Forgot who said it, but It might of been you joe, but someone said this is basically art on wheels.
1 of most beautiful convertible made . With that said . Hate the infotainment center . With no touch screen. As you say Joe have to zonk that
I agree with you!
Way better than a touch screen. Plus Apple car play Android Auto you don't need it. You shouldn't be using a screen while driving anyway and that is the only convenience of a touchscreen. You can just say destinations these days you don't need to type anything which was a good use for a touch screen years ago.
@@DEVILTAZ35 I agree with you. I also hate to see finger prints all over the screen.
As much as I wish this car was a roadster, I am glad it has rear seats. I feel like that extra space is perfect for bags and stuff.
But removing those seats would create lots of extra space in the trunk or interior space for whatever items you need to transport.
Well done Laurie! Awesome camera work! Joe's the man n that lexus is the ! Car! Great show guys❤❤
Thanks Diamond for taking the time to say that!
@@RaitisRides ❤❤❤❤
Can’t get enough of you’re reviews. Much love from Australia

Another great review. Incredible insight sprinkled with a little wit that only Joe can provide.
The MONA LISA of cars😍.
The car is absolutely stunning... I hope to get one after they swap out the infotainment for Lexus Interface. Biggest complaint during my test drive was that you can't see a significant portion of the hood while driving- about 2-3 feet of blind distance, and I'm 6'2
I already know the tan interior and red paint would smackkkk🔥🔥
What I love about the car is the gaps are so narrow from 10ft away it looks like one solid piece.
Truly a work of art
That’s by far the best color combo I’ve seen on that car, so far
Just picked up one of these in Nori Green Pearl. I have put 145 miles on the Odometer so far (no time to drive just yet and my commute is from my bedroom to my home office).
Lexus never fails to amaze with their designs.
I am so glad that you are liking this one.
Joe, thank you for what you do. This car is flat out stunning!
You are so very welcome Travis! I appreciate you letting me share it with you!
Gorgeous car, thank you Joe!
I am so glad that you liked this one.
An amazing car made by an amazing company, reviewed by an amazing person :)
Your buddies, TheCarKids 😉
I think you meant "amazing person" instead 😃
@@volcalstone I changed it to amazing
Thank you for saying those things and being so supportive!
@@volcalstone Thanks man!
@@TheCarKrazeOfficial You are the man!
Love it Joe I have more Lexus to see from you LOL
I know you do brother1
Nice car and review!
I am so glad that you like this one.
The last car which I recall was "a concept car for a streets," was the Dodge Viper. 😳 💀
You are so right!
Actually the Plymouth Prowler was the last 😬
Joe, this car has Stunning style, power, and great equipment. Great car to review Joe.
This car is just gorgeous!!! I’d rather have usable backseats or none at all. Anything in between is just awkward. Great video as usual Raiti!
Totally agree. It's a car I'd consider when I retire, but the seats are a waste of space.
This is a truly stunning car (prefer the coupe) and they are already down to $65k for a fresh used one, watching these values closely because I would love one of these. Great job again Joe- you rock!!
Thanks Ray! You bring ups such a great point!
This is for the rich - used is never fresh. It is like saying an ex-stripper is fresh. You dont knw where it’s been. Buy new what you can afford. Buy smart, you nver fall victim to depreciation and keep it longer.
@@brolyv5802 weird take for a car but if I can get a low miles one for about $50k I will, it’s a Toyota and will be reliable

LC500 is when lexus decides to amaze. It will be there in the hall fame as when of the best ever built
We need to get to 500k by the end of this year!!!
Thanks for having my back!
3:40 When you said, "Guess what?" I got an ad that asked, "Guess what it is?"
RUclips really wants to keep me in suspense lol
Thanks for reviewing this car Joe, much love for you and Lori... 🙂
I love this mans vids keep it up bro 👍🏾
You got it brother!
Personally this has to be one of the most Beautiful cars on the market besides the new Genesis lineup.
I totally agree with you!
Let's Go, Lexus!!
Way better looking and unique than the 8-series or anything in its class
Sorry but in my opinion the 8 is better but I respect your opinion
Stunning 💪👌
Heck yeah!
Joe, love your videos!! Just bought a Lexus based on your review. Keep up the good work!!
Such a great sounding car!
I can't agree with you more!
What a sweet ride! Tell the truth, Lori. Did you want to just put the camera down, say to heck with the video, and go cruise in that glorious weather? Thanks so much for bringing us this special car
You are 100% correct!
Worked for Lexus for 2 out of 20 years in the car business. Only sold 1 SC 430 used to a guy from Canada. They didn’t sell well but they were beautiful! 😉
That is crazy!
Regarding the LC500 review, one of the best!
I love the LC500 but the mistake is the lack of touch screne technology. How can a car business correct these mistakes to make them perfect?
On mine you just push the speak button and tell the car what I want and it happens.
Screw the touch screen, it’s overrated! If you really have one, you’d know this.
This LC 500 is the shiz nit!
Another wonderful review. Great camera work Lori!++
It would be nice if you could stand back and let us see the entire car...
Little does Joe know, I’ve had some 18 inch pizzas in my lifetime 😌
You are a lucky man!
jfc this thing looks so good.
Toasted caramel, and you want a candy bar???
Joe, I'm a connoisseur, I'll have a cream wafer...
(Holds pinky at an impossibly elegant angle as he sips 7up from a mason jar)
Always wondered who did the excellent camera work well done Mrs Raiti.😊
Awesome review of a beautiful car!
Killin it joe!
Gorgeous convertible with a sweet exhaust note
Lexus presumably has access to the Toyota parts bin - so why do they persist with the track pad for the infotainment system? It is the one feature of this otherwise awesome car that is universally disliked by various reviewers. Lexus really needs to get with the program here.
I know right! That drives me nuts!
You reviews are always amazing. Would you go with the 2021 Lexus LC500 (coupe) or the 2021 Jaguar F-Type R? Both cars are similarly priced at around $100k. Would would you go with?
I’d still get an LC500
I wish they would cut the back seat on the lc and rc that make the car a lot faster
Yup. Ditch the backseats and up the power to 500hp and it would be perfect 👌
Love all you’re videos man there awesome 💪💯
Thanks Nick! I can't do it without you!
Amazing job Joe.
I ain't mad atcha Rai. Solid
those door pockets are amazing! camaro is envious!
BEAUTIFUL ENGINE SOUND!
Thanks for the great review, 👍🏻🍺🍺🍺 Always a big fan of cars with simple lines, ,, less scoops,less vents,less spoilers, etc.... this one is magnificent.
Great car and review as always! Very funny!
Joe great review 👍🏼 That is a work of art. Stunning. Wow. If you have one of these your very lucky
Just gorgeous! Too bad it won’t sell, but, it’s the car land we live in now; good news, wait a few years and buy one for a huge discount :)
My dream car
That car is everything!
I am so glad that I can share it with you!
Love our Lexus LS 460 but I want this car! Absolutely love it! Wife said go ahead, but just have not pulled the trigger yet. :-)
You are a lucky man Tony!
