40-Minute Lexus LC 500 Review Is Extremely Thorough

Everything — and we mean everything — about the LC 500 is brought up in this lengthy POV review, which will make you want to buy one.

The Lexus LC 500 is the Japanese automaker’s new halo car and while that sounds like a straightforward place to be in a lineup, the grand tourer has large shoes to fill after the Lexus LFA. Needless to say, the majority of automotive outlets think that the LC 500 lives up to the hype, and we agree with them. While numerous automotive outlets have covered Lexus’ latest and greatest machine, this 40-minute POV review from Winding Road Magazine covers the incredible car on a different level.

YouTube reviews tend to be 10 or so minutes in length, but the one below delves deeper into the LC 500. Everything about the machine, from the styling, to trunk space, and then to how the vehicle drivers, is covered in this lengthy review. Besides getting an extensive look at the machine, we also get to see everything from the driver’s eyes thanks to a POV camera setup.

Being able to share the same view as the driver really helps brings new things to light. Like the gorgeous and high-tech instrument cluster that can move or the way the naturally-aspirated V8 sounds from the driver’s seat. This camera angle really makes you feel like you’re there, sitting in the driver’s seat, taking the LC 500 out for a spin.

And when Winding Road Magazine takes breaks from pointing out some of the LC 500’s features, there’s nothing but the amazing sound from the engine. The 5.0-liter behemoth generates 471 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque and is matched to a 10-speed automatic transmission. The pairing is absolutely sublime and gives the vehicle its grand-touring character.

Get a pair of headphones, settle into a comfortable seat, and get ready to watch one of the longest LC 500 reviews on the Internet. After watching this, you’ll be checking your bank account to see how far off you are from being able to own one of these gorgeous cars.
