He actually loves it but is afraid to say so since its not a "super car" at 2x3 times the price.

Wasn't it you who steered me away from caramel I thought I wanted to accepting the red with a black dash that I could get? And partly for this reason? Some member did and changed my preference.

This guy should learn a little about the car before he tries to go pass off legitimate reviews. Complaining about the paddle shifters not responding but using D mode, the wondering why the car reverted to normal D mode is n00b ****.
In spades. He really was pissed when he came to a stop and D-paddle reverted to simple drive. As a D-A**', I love this. No knowledge of M-paddle at all. Even if he did, my guess is performance would have been ridiculed at that level. Of course, the real point is he misses the real design objective of creating one of the best world class luxury GT's in existence. It's not for everyone any more than a cult VW Beetle is. Geeeezzz. It's the balance between performance/daily driving/luxury-features/body design/attention to detail inside and out I admire.

Interesting that Lexus does durability testing for its paint and finishes by just parking a car outside for years and years.

Now this is a legitimate example of the term “night and day “ before and after an intervention. Very beautiful LC 500 following a thorough cleaning.

Another art car leaves Grafico looking fabulous! A collaboration between Lexus Australia & artist Emma Coulter using original artwork adapted by our team to wrap the stunning curves of the Lexus LC500h in our PVC-Free wrap film. Check it out in all it's colourful glory!!

Respect to Lexus Australia and the artist.

My opinion— If the lighter pink portions were replaced by a darker nori green or switch the light pink with the lesser shown orange, then I would be okay with it.

Definitely a show piece IMO, and no disrespect to the LC, but I would drive it if it was w/o the “h” — again, just my take on it.

What a day! The track experience was on another level. Huge thanks to VOX Cinemas for sponsoring our group, West Media — from the thrill of the F1 track to watching the F1 movie, it was an unforgettable day

Unfortunately the 2022 Inspiration series LC in post #222 fell victim to the Texas floods.

LC is in the top left of the video at 30:20

Totalled out ...Seems like it started up and ran, but maybe the electronics and interior are totally bazooked.

At least they were able to save some vehicles which were up on lifts. I guess this is why you carry insurance hopefully with flood coverage.
