Crazy to think it’s already been 5 years since it’s been out.
Basically more suspension tweaks for ‘23.

Keep it in production until the end of time. This will be my mid life crisis car, new or used.

I've been inside two LFAs so far, mint green and whitest white one. I still think LC is better car both inside and outside if I had to pick one car to spend my time in. Such a shame we've never got to see the LC-F monster. It could have been spiritual successor to LFA, according to rumors it was wickedly modified.

Nice car. I like the convertible the best.

The screen is still too small. And this car badly need the new updated Lexus software for the infotainment screen.

many times I think to myself why is it so expensive, but then I remember how every video review praises the quality and materials , and I remember sitting in one and thinking " yes , this is worth its price."
This LC is a case of "buy as much LC as you can afford", meaning every year they change things for the better, and buy the most you can afford (to get the latest year, lower mileage etc).
I still wish they had the massage seats, the updated infotainment, and reverse camera quality, 360 degree camera, but ill take it as a drivers car as what It is.
Now just torn between the convertible or the coupe lol

Would love one in structural blue... I've considered getting rid of my GT4 for an LC, but I love going to the track too much. Does having two fun weekend cars seem unreasonable? Lol

I actually find Structural Blue intimidating. It's such a rare, unusual color due to it having no actual blue pigment. I would be obsessed with keeping it clean, the right way.

I'm quite certain I would go with Atomic Silver, though the LC looks good in any color. The one I test drove a couple months back was AS. Just gorgeous.
