Thanks very much, I'm seriously looking forward to driving it out of there. The LCs I've test driven were great but the 3 day trip I'll be immediately taking with it will be another experience entirely. I'll be sure to report back afterwards with pictures and an update. I have a good feeling that my face is going to hurt from the big dumb smile I get every time I start it up and hit the gas

Took a lot of thinking but as soon as I got up close with one, I knew this combo was the right amount of character while also being understated enough for my taste. Well, "understated" until it wakes up and roars. I could write many paragraphs on my thought process but I'll spare you all from the barrage of text.

I will say that there's a world where I may have picked up the USB/caramel LC a while ago if the dealers weren't total bastards about markups for the two I found with the right features (10k/8k markups, 2.5k tint, 1.5k minimal door ppf) but thankfully their nonsense gave me time to look around and I'm very happy with where I ended up

Frankly those dealer markups are excessive IMO and it was wise to walk away. The LC 500 has limited interior color options but fortunately very good exterior color choices. I really like the Rioja red and think it is a beautiful match with the understated and elegant dark grey. Do you have the standard or the optional wheels?

Ha! I’d like to read your “thought process” I suspect it is interesting. This is a very low volume selling car that I find to be exquisite and excellently executed. I just believe that enthusiasts with very refined taste recognize the specialness of this car.

my dealer tried the +5K when I was ready to order, I ignored his emails for 3 days and then he came around.
