Reviews & News: The Lexus LC 500

[CRSKTN]

Blurred out design matches large sedan from this platform slide.

Also the clay models in the back are multiple, and appear modular.
Seems they are serious about these designs.

New sedan is longer and taller than the LFR rumored size.

I bet you the blurry one is a new LS and the one in the back is some full size LUV / LX replacement.

These are not to drawn to scale. The sedan is LF-ZC (HZ) and the LS replacement is LF-ZL.

Looking closer that looks like they are doing interior work with a functioning door on the left in the last picture.

The implied wheel size & wheelbase of the large sedan platform lines up nearly exactly with the new Rolls Royce Spectre.

No Fake Sounds, Just Science: How Lexus Made The LC's V8 Sing Like An LFA | Carscoops

Lexus employed consumer electronics tech in an effort to give its LC to give the coupe a flavor of the old LFA’s V10 soundtrack

Sitting in my LC, thinking about the RC F’s discontinuation makes me wonder how much longer the LC will last. Damn, I really don’t want to see a future where Lexus’s lineup is filled with nothing but boring EV SUVs

That's so much better than any German luxury car... Hopefully we will see Lexus coming back to this level.

The car doesnt age.

You could tell me its a new release and id believe you.

I just don't see it happening right now. I will never write Lexus off, but I think we all need to be in acceptance mode that this is what Lexus is going to be right now.

Speaking from the other side, it gets easier when you've accepted what Lexus is vs. what Lexus was.

Lexus LC500 (2017-2024) review – when Japan built its own Aston Martin | Evo

Charismatic, distinctive and above all great to drive – the LC500 was a triumph that showed up more flashy and expensive GTs

• Superb chassis balance; engine; interior; design

• Transmission the weak link; iffy infotainment; hybrid nothing like as good as the V8

This car should get more love. The only 30MPG luxury GT.

Some new rumors from MagX indicating the LC is going to be getting some updates for next year.

• Revised radiator grill (maybe something like what is pictured on the IS below)
• Lexus lettering on the rear
• Fixed wing

 

[Gor134]

I'm worried those changes will take away from the design as opposed to improving it. The current LC500 is art.

I do wonder why the facelift for it with the revised taillights from the LCF spy shot got canned.

 

[Kelvin2020]

The LC’s design is timeless, no need for major changes to its exterior. A few subtle refinements to the interior would be enough to keep it fresh. Lexus should extend its lifecycle as long as possible.

I’ve heard so many rumors about the LC it makes my head spin lol.

Kirk is smart making a video of what a magazine said lol
