2023 Lexus LC 500 Convertible Regatta
Hey Lexus family,
During my last visit to Lexus Edinburgh I noticed they had a stunning Regatta LC 500 convertible. I especially love the blue and white interior.
I hope you all enjoy this beautiful version as much as I did?!

is "Regatta" a special trim level there, like inspiration?
anyway, very nice!
i always get a chuckle out of seeing the convertible's back 'seats' though,. which look more like a torture chamber.

Agree….But I prefer the USA version where the exterior color was Structural Blue 
vs this European version in Nitefall Mica. In addition, The American version had dark blue floor mats vs white for Europe. However, the European version does give you a dark blue steering wheel vs white for the USA..... I’m of the preference that anything you have to constantly touch shud not be white. White interiors look rich but are extremely tough to maintain.

The 2021 Regatta edition (I posted a link upthread) in the UK was the 2021 US-specced Inspiration Series with Structural Blue Paint. He is simply showing a Bespoke LC 500 according to the plate on the console--which is unique in itself because I didn't think there was a Bespoke option for the Convertible......

Technically it’s a UK market “Regatta Inspiration”, introduced in 2022 I think. Any colour choice you want, with the white/blue interior, this car is in what we call Deep Blue - same as the US Blue Mica.
We can’t get Structural Blue in the UK anymore as far as I know, although I think the first 2021 iteration of the Regatta convertible was only available as Struc Blue over white. I’ve only ever seen one Structural Blue convertible for sale in the UK.

Its normal Bespoke build. There have been several new ones available in Europe lately with blue and white interior and multiple different exterior colors. Actual Regatta edition was only available at convertible introduction time and those were all Structural blue numbered cars. Easy way to tell the difference even without seeing paint color is to look steering wheel color. In Regatta its white, in Bespoke its blue.
