The improvements sound great! I’m disappointed in the white interior being discontinued though. It was incredible in person and easily my favorite interior color setup of any Lexus. I’m happy to see Android Auto on the LC as well. It’s a nice option to have. I wish they would bring the Structural Blue option back. That was a breathtaking color in person.

Once the older LC’s depreciate more, I’ll look into getting one. I considered leasing a CPO LC500 while I worked for Lexus, but they were still a little pricey.

Sigh, why do they keep holding back the LC by not giving it the LS 3.5TT?

Lexus really ought to sell this with AWD if they want more people to buy it. It's a GT car, not a track machine.

Oh no! I was gonna say the opposite, still V8, but how about beefing it up (yes turbocharging, I've accepted it's the norm)..

I think the only easy way to get to the back seats is with a convertible. I have seen a friend putting a golf bag on the back seat of his 911 convertible. Hopefully, there is still some room in the trunk with the roof down.

People complain the LS has the 3.5TT and not the V8 and that the LC has the V8 and not the 3.5TT lol

Pretty important stuff. 22lb diet is great, but trivial. I am really excited about the two new colors. Orange and Green. Waiting for the LCF.

Cuz the TTV8 is not ready and the TTV6 will out accelerate the current V8 making it look bad.

They sell extremely few of these. Makes no sense for there to be two gas engine options that make similar power and a hybrid.

Be happy it exists at all!

TTV6 sounds like crap making it look bad. Be glad Lexus still makes a 5.0 V8

The Lexus LC V8 sounds epic.

Lack of customization and poor marketing is holding this car back.

The long delayed LC-F with TT V8 is more evidence of horrible planning by Lexus.

I’m 100% positive it will be discontinued in next 3-5yrs so please get the 5.0 V8 while you can.
