Earlier this month went on a 4200 mile roadtrip through Colorado, Utah, & a bit of Arizona - been looking forward to taking the yellow car to the yellow aspens in CO since I got it & the timing was perfect.

Car was just fantastic the whole time, totally comfortable on the 12-hour interstate days and a blast on the twisty roads & in the tunnels. Million Dollar Highway in CO, Scenic Byway 12 in Utah, and Hells Canyon in ID/OR (most fun road in the US imo) were the highlights.

Amazed at how much better the handling is with my Pilot Sport All-Seasons are than the Dunlop summer run-flats the car came with - I didn't manage to get them to squeal at all, there's so much grip, whereas the Dunlops whined at the slightest bit of spirited driving. Now that I've driven the LC and my old F-Type R and Cayman S on the same Hells Canyon road I can compare them properly & say this car is great fun to drive, less fun than the other two but really not notably so, and the reliability and practicality/comfort more than make up the difference for me.

Here's a load of pictures..

Exactly my thoughts. Awesome locations and picture composition. Yellow color shows different shades under different lighting conditions.

 

Great photos, curious - what's with all the stickers on your back window?

 

Those are all my favorite roads (about half I've been to in this car and the rest in my old F-Type). I make them for myself, plus I sell the Tail of the Dragon one on ebay

 

These pics are spectacular - thank you for sharing them with the LC 500 community!

 

when you going to do Road to Hana.

 

Also the Tunnel of Trees in Harbor Springs, MI. I've not been there either, just living vicariously thru others.

 

Would vacationing to Hawaii and renting an LC for the drive then slapping the sticker on your own car count? Or does it have to be the ultimate baller move to ship your own LC there and back for the drive? Hehe
