Lexus is the best car brand, period.

Agree!
My older cousin had a green one back in the days and kept it for like 20+ years. What a car!

Not sure if this was ever posted but being it's a Lexus thread, I'll add it.



I was always a fan of the LFA. That V10 F1 sound is IMHO the best sounding factory made exhaust for street legal car ever. And watching this video (it's 48 minutes but WELL worth your time IF your a car guy who is into the technical and engineering aspect of a car).

After watching this video, I'm even more of a fan of the car. I always knew Toyota actually built its own CFRP loom to make the CF strands, since they didn't have one (it's one of only 2 in the world), and the reason for a digital tachometer (motor revs too fast for a physical tach to show the RPMs). But other info (the reason for a 4 hour oil change was EYE OPENING). And pausing the video when they showed all the optional colors was so cool to see what was available to order (passionate pink was a factory color?!!). If money was not object, I'd love one. My perfect spec would have been the pearl blue (I've seen pics and it's insanely beautiful) with red seats & red trim inside! Hope you all like the video.

damn, just saw the new 2021 IS300 on the steel parked int he park i run in the morning and i am impressed, at first glance i thought it was an LC sport coupe

the update on the grill makes it aggressive and simply removing that chrome accent on the top of the grill while leaving the rest just gives it a meaner look

the silhouette and how the back is more sloped and almost a sportback now makes it longer than it is but also sleeker but still have those hard edges, its just well

to be honest i think if you want a GS, this IS might work for you as its probably the same size inside of the GS from a decade ago(?)

Seen an LC the other day on my way to work.. damn i want one lol. I wasn't completely sure if it was at first because it was dark until I seen them tail lights with the mirrored infinity look

Al
how much will the LC500 depreciate to in the next 3 yrs?
If I had to guess I would say yea by quite a bit the 2018 model has already dropped in price already.The market for big luxury coupes with v8s just isnt there anymore like the 90s and early 00s.
 
like below $50k? wonder if it'll hold up well like other lexus models once it goes deeper in mileage

Wont forgive Lexus for not updating the engine, and barely updating the interior.
 
New winter setup.. went with ADV.1 ADV005 wheels fully brushed.. tires are the new Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4



Looks like the first video was taken literally right around the corner from my place. I can legit see the buildings from my window :lol:
 
Before i decided a Tesla would be my next car, i was looking hard at a used GSF. I feel like theyre the perfect daily driver
 
A teaser image I got from Lexus I can share... something new is coming...
