The 2019 S Class coupe, a TT v8 and segment competitor that costs $30k more at base is only 463, compared to LC's 471 and they're both rated at 4.5 second 0-60.

In this segment and price range, only the Jaguar F-Type and BMW 8 Series (which just came out) has more HP than the LC.


Not the first time he has been wrong...

I will not tolerate the 911 interior slander by the BMW stan... Gonna be a rude awakening when he customizes his C8 into near 911 pricing. Haha.

On topic, the green on the LC is nice. Gotta see it in person tho.

Oh please the LC is not at the level of the S class coupe. I would say it is more of a BMW 8 series competitor.

And you know what? If you are someone that can afford a $100k weekend play toy, another $10k-$30k is not a deterrent.

Wearing an exclusive color combination and produced in very limited quantities, the Inspiration Series Lexus LC 500 looks truly special.
