Sounds like a serious step towards being a true sports car, without being a supercar with stratosphere price. http://www.cnet.com/roadshow/auto/2017-lexus-lc-500/

I like that they are keeping to a naturally aspirated engine.

I am sickened that Lexus didn't fit the 650BHP TMG engine into the LC500. BMW's from 2007 are 500 bhp and loads of Mercs break the 0.5k BHP barrier too.
I was hoping my extreme patience in waiting for the LC500 to be launched would be rewarded with a class leading engine, instead of the RC engine, which in class terms is an "also ran" engine....

I love Lexus, but they are sickeningly conservative. Can the LFA program manager get involved with the LC500 engine, for the love of god !
