The $100,000 Lexus LC 500 Is The Most Badass Lexus Since The LFA

Lexus’ 5.0 liter, naturally aspirated V8. The failing of this engine is that it’s a little short on torque for an engine its size, with 389 lb-ft at a rather high 4,800 RPM.

A new 10-speed automatic :faint:

LC 500 will start at just under $100,000' :shocked:

Love the interior and the design excluding the front grill.

I still hate the front grill.

Every single new Lexus front end looks awful because of the grill. It looks like they were going for that 'shitty public park charcoal grill grate that always has rust holes' look.

I don't get why they would use the same motor as the rcf. I would rather buy the rcf for a whole lot cheaper.

A 100K luxury "sports car" that will be overweight and perform worse than cars half its cost...

Literally everyone has 8 and 10 speeds autos in their cars now...

Anytime Ford....anytime.

You sound like a broken record in every thread.

If you don't like it...too bad. It's a fact.

Looks like a baby Supra, I like it! And that interior is pure luxury, except for those Frankenstein neck bolts sticking out of the driver's display.

Gorgeous!

Lexus is never going to sell a manual transmission again, so people may as well get over that now, or look elsewhere if you need one. Other than the IS manual, which went out of production two and a half years ago, they haven't sold any in the past two or so decades.

Car looks amazing, though, and given Lexus' recent track record, I imagine the production model will look just as good. They've been making some sexy ass machines lately... but they're just not quite track ready enough for my liking.

Can't wait to bust some self absorbed prick's ass in one of these.

Right. And it's not like the car will perform any better. All the extra gears are for fuel economy.
