    @kaiserfoxi2663 years ago I for one really like the analog clock. It's done in Mercedes, Bentley and Rolls Royce cars as well. It's a classy touch that can actually fit into the dashboard design real well, like in the LS500 ... 335

    @nicholasdunigan65784 years ago For a guy that makes his living reviewing quirks and features, I’m surprised how sarcastic you were when reviewing the craftsmanship on display here. I’m not a hardcore Lexus guy, however I couldn’t help but notice your unapologetic bias toward this brand during this review. In comparison, when you review Cadillacs you never harp on their old stereotypes as hard. ... 507

    @mikemorelli91703 years ago Full disclosure. I’ve owned two LCs in the past three years and chose it because it is a superior GT, delivers a very satisfying driving experience and is a screaming value. It doesn’t disappoint. And the induction sound and exhaust note are completely addictive. ... 67
  • @
    @stevetheodore_specialtycars3 years ago Having just bought one of these this past week and experiencing it for the first time yesterday, I have to say I'm wildly impressed with it (and I'm a current Toyota/Lexus owner). The LC500 really is a 'have your cake and eat it too' combination of practical, reliable, and sporty that is hard to achieve. The materials are absolutely sensational, meaning possibly the best I've ever experienced in my life...and worthy of great mention. Although it's not going to top any single category, I agree with Doug that the overall combination of attributes puts it in a very special class. Amazing car and truly impressive engineering! ... 69

    @GotherYT3 years ago Dude this is literally one of my favorite cars because it’s luxurious, fast, sounds amazing, looks incredibly exclusive and classy and not too flamboyant, and also I’ve only seen one twice in my entire life. The rarity of this car makes it so much cooler to me, because like people aren’t gonna immediately understand what it is like they would a Jaguar or a Lamborghini or Ferrari. Like you could park this somewhere to go pickup food and not have twenty photos taken of it ... 17

    @dmitriyshabalin8152 years ago Doug, first of all, thank you for the review, everything is super as always, thank you for your work. Secondly, the LC500 is a very beautiful model, but in order for it to be as fast as LFA, you need to tune and refine it with the hands of the master. Lexus will soon show the world the receiver of the LFA legend, it is electric, but it is more beautiful than Tesla in my personal subjective opinion. I hope this new model will also appear in your reviews on this channel. (I wrote through Google translator, so I apologize if there are errors in the grammar of the written text) ... 3

    @katsuyoshihironaka11914 years ago The LC is amazingly nice, my grandpa picked up his for around $90k brand new which was discounted already plus he haggled it down, it took a week but they finally called and said he can pick it up. This car sounds and feels just as good as my 2012 CL63 obviously not as fast but then again it wasn’t meant to contend with AMG or M cars which are specialty to begin with. That being said I couldn’t see myself trading my R35 for an LC500, don’t get me wrong it’s a beautiful car all the way around and definitely a great step for Lexus considering how much they’ve lacked in the past. Great video. ... 7

There fit and finish is so good and there attention to detail is remarkable. Why don’t u explain why Mercedes had to purchase a couple Ls400 to figure out why it was so good. It’s just a Lexus my ass. Lexus schools the car world. ... 688

    @olaybsaysol71345 years ago Lexus by far is NOT a low end vehicle. Toyota doesn’t want to rip off the consumer by charging an extra $10k for the badging and snobbery 🤷‍♂️... 425
  • @
    @richardw53753 years ago I like the analogue clock looks classy you have to pay for that as an extra i think in the high end Porsche 911. Infotainment is hard to use but depends if your used to hot or cold seating if I had it I wouldn't use it as I don't have it on my current car, but you can use the voice recognition to change seat temps etc. Also Lexus should of made it a 2 seater in direct challenge to jaguar f type .My dream car thanks for the great vid. ... 2

    @fontking1a2 years ago Hey Doug...adults read the Owner's Manual and learn VOICE COMMAND. It's easy. You'll almost never have to use the trackpad. Only a fool scrolls around trying to do different tasks. A smart person simply presses one button and talks to the car. As for the analog clock...I'll go check your latest Bentley review and see if you were upset with them for the same thing. I'm just short of four years now owning my LC500 and I cannot express what a fantastic car this is. It excels in everything a car designed for the public roads should and it won't leave you stranded at the side of the road like those German cars you love. ... 1

  • @
    @CaptainMarget2 years ago It find it utterly fascinating that people buy into the branding of "aspirational" brands like Mercedes and BMW and continue to judge cars like Lexus' given their incredible track record of quality and reliability. How many times have you heard people complaining about getting their "high end" european cars repaired for a ridiculous prices. How many BMWs and Mercedes are still driving around with 500k kms on the clock. As someone whos owned cars from all three manufacturers, Lexus is the only brand that never let me down. ... 1
