as others have said, this lc500 is likely to be a LOT more expensive.

awesome description.

 

the interior is, well...

tantastic

or

tantalizing

The only thing that bothers me with this car is that I can´t afford it

 

If MT's first look review is to be believed the LC's curb weight is 4300 lbs which is heavier than RCF / GSF. So it has to be the new 10 AT which makes it faster. Of course all of these could just be estimates or hearsay - we'll have to wait until some actual test data comes out !

Either way the car looks & sounds epic !

 

after reading more i'm guessing it will start at 100+k.

 

other brands were trashed on this forum for going to 8 or 9 gears and now lexus has 10. good for lexus! it will be more responsive and smoother.

 

I suppose the gearing might work to the advantage of making this car faster than the RCF...or maybe more annoying.
Dual intakes too.

 

Looks incredible. I really like this. Minor gripe, but I think the stubby deer antler looking stalk switches at the top of the cluster looks terrible up there...

 

based on?

mbusa site says s550 coupe is 4,707lbs
motortrend article says lc500 is 4300lbs
http://www.motortrend.com/news/2018-...t-look-review/

and the s550 is awd and with a lot more room.

 

oh yeah,,,DUH...what was I thinking...lol...

 

Oh my god..cant wait for the F version. That thing will be the closest one can get to the LFA for 1/3 the price. This will be seriously good, personally I think it's insanely good looking worth the match with aston martin. A luxury reliable super GT priced less than a new NSX.......

 

Frankenstein LOL..that was the term I needed. I called them stubby antlers lol. That is the one thing that jumped out at me...they look way out of place to me..almost like added on like the old Sony 10 Disc Changer wired remotes

 

based on common sense and then Andrew English article:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/cars/lexus/lexus-lc-review/

1800kg is roughly 3960lbs, same as RC-F... and it only makes sense since 0-60 is same as RC-F at 4.4s. They share engine after all and both are RWD. 8 speed was quick already and this thing has 20" tires base vs 19" on RC-F.

As Andrew wrote, carbon fibre in construction are latest additions to the prototype vehicle, that wasnt tested by journalists yet.

He also spilled few other beans - they added rear wheel steering, there will be AVS with new tech.

Lexus also said sub 100k ("just barely") price for base model and extras like carbon fibre roof (instead of glass), rear wheel steer, mark levinson... i suspect loaded LC500 will be $110k or so?

It is so nice... sad to see cc stalk gone tho! As brits would say, all bespoke Lexus now. Love LFA inspiration in interior too.

 

They are from LFA, but actually nicer... were much bigger in LFA.
