$10k premium for the hybrid. I guess they really don't want to sell any of the hybrid model. Down over 200hp and $10k higher in price is a bit..no!

 

I thought the LC500h is 354 hp versus 471 for the V8, making the difference 117 hp, not "over 200hp".

 

The LC pictured above looks to be the current Lexus metallic black to me

 

You mean Caviar?

It could very well be the lighting. I'll still hope for a metallic dark gray though.

 

Remembered wrong but my point stands. $10k more is ridiculous for performance that is likely to be below the cheaper nonhybrid model.

 

Yup, it's name escapes me!

I have a client that has a SGM IS250 and it was parked behind my nebula LS today, was going to take a picture but didn't want her to think I was a weirdo LOL.

I like the nebula fine, but I do prefer the darker SGM.

 

Happens all the time when I see a unique car or color. I have to look around and see if anyone's watching hah

Yeah didn't mean any offense to your NGP LS, in fact my dad has a 2012 IS350 in NGP. It's safe, decent, and almost looks steel blue at times. I just prefer a darker / charcoal gray.

 

No worries! I like the color, I don't love the color. Had it been available in 2015 I would have gotten atomic silver.

It's funny how different colors look on different models. I loved liquid platinum on my GS, but don't love it on the LS. I like nebula on the LS I think because the smoked taillights blend well.

 

That is a great point, because they do!

 

the lines on the LC makes it look quite different in person imho (unlike most of the cars i see). in person i think black looks so good. silver doesn't really work for me

 

I think the 10K premium over the gas version is incorrect. It does not seem logical for the hybrid version to cost more yet it will have less performance. Also, 100 large for 354HP does not seem all that impressive.

 

the LC's c pillar and floating roof have too much of a resemblance to the new rx imo - which is why, for me, darker color is better.

 

Reminds me of the Jaguar XJ. It looks better in body color

 

I personally hate it on the LC. Hope they won't add the floating roof to the next LS!

 

who says the hybrid is going to be 10k more apple to apple against regular?

maybe, though on the RX i kind of like white more than black
