Rear wheel drive and 470 horsepower. In my opinion limited slip differential should be a mandatory/ standard requirement. The LC 500 is a serious car and not a toy. LSD means improved safety.

 

20 years ago I had a BMW-Alpina B5 Touring with "over 500bhp" and no LSD. Alpina's official story then was that they didn't like the effect on turn in with a mechanical LSD (a valid point, in those days) and they had tried the then newfangled BMW M e-diff, but the supercharged V8 pretzeled it in less than a lap of Hockenheim. They eventually made a mechanical LSD optional on those cars, but it was unruly even in a straight line, without it - one of the few cars I've owned where wheelspin was a thing in more than half of the forward gears!

The LC's torsen diff feels good to me - I haven't noticed any tendency to "push" in it, though I do have the active rear steer on my car, so perhaps that's why...

 

Most dealerships dont have a friggin clue with the LC. Forum members know more LC info than 99% of dealer sales reps.

And yes the bespoke 100% does come with the LSD. I dunno if that was always the case going back to 2018, but it certainly is for the 2024-2026s.

 

My '23 Convertible Vspec listed it as this under installed packages and accesories;TORSEN® LIMITED-SLIP REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND YAMAHA® REAR PERFORMANCE

DAMPER

FIO $460.00

 

Same as shown on the window sticker for my 2023 convertible...

I think the point is Lexus just assumes that everyone knows the Bespoke package automatically includes the Torsen diff…

 

So a $122k final auction price + fees = $128k.

Not bad for the buyer but BaT comes away as the most likely financial winner.

As long as the buyer is happy, all good as he basically got a brand new car under MSRP (not including BaT fee but full PPF add-on)

 

does the buyer or seller pay the commission, not familiar with BAT.

 

Buyer - 5% of final hammer price or up to $7,500 (max fee)

 

You don’t have to put your foot in your mouth.

 

why do you care how much it sells for ??
handbags are going over 10k for a name brand
LFA are costing more than when released.
ppl buying painting for millions!!
sorry buddy but ppl with money can get whatever they want and you can’t

 

Lmao I don't care what it sells for but I was right, so maybe take a ******* chill pill buddy.

 

^^^^^^

Went for $120 K. Surprised it didn’t get a few extra $$

 

Agree. Perhaps exposure in the marketplace was an issue.
