Default New Lexus key
The tech guy at my dealer has been flooding ig with pics of the new lc display model. He snapped the new Lexus key man that thing is huge and looks so incredible now. Now people like redline reviews can stop complaining about the Lexus keys.

Bigger doesn't mean better. It looks good but don't really like bulky key fob.

TBH idc how a key fob looks. It just can't be cheap looking or feeling. Idc about size cause at the end of the day it stays in pocket. But as new trends come everyone follows.

I don't want to complain but the non metal areas look pretty cheap, I hope this is not the case in person.

Of course they do. No matter what Lexus does no one ever ever cuts them slack esp in this "Lexus" forum.

Well I do consider myself in the market to get an LC and I cut Lexus plenty of slack.

The key is definitely nicer than the current line of keys. When we had the lc500h at our dealership and i grabbed the key I was definitely impressed with it. A little bigger and heavier but it felt great and looked classier and refined.

I don't love or hate it. But it keeps reminding me of a Zippo lighter my dad had.
