the dynamic handling pack is a must, I also drove an lc with and without, and it makes a big difference in making the car feel like either a luxury cruiser or a capable gt car. if you have the chance, try driving one with and one without dhp

@@jacquesraymond6892 the new Supras are very nice too

@@gentianmedia3814 They are more BMW'S than TOYOTA'S.

Thanks for the information! We had this as a rental car, so we didn't look into the trim level it was at. Good to know!

Suspension is very soft and compliant, absolutely no problems with daily driving. Might be smoother than your RX

Nope, other side of the country (and maybe a little down south ;) )

Works much better than the old screen with the mouse! I’ll take it.

Agreed, it really is an abomination compared to the original and I don’t care how well it “works”. I literally get into the infotainment system once before driving off and never touch it again. I want to trade my 21 in on the last model year and I don’t know if I can do it because of this nonsense. If they add a trans cooler in the US it would make it a little easier to stomach that trash tablet.

​@@thewholeeventhorizon 24 model in usa trans cooler dont ?

@@АлександрПрайм-я7б right no trans cooler for 24 USA. Maybe for the 25?

​@@thewholeeventhorizon maybe

I 100% agree, it’s definitely not the fastest car you can get for the money but the overall driving experience is just incredible… still prefer my GT4 though ;) but I’ll admit the LC is a better car overall

So it was good on the twisties? How’s the steering feel? Did this car have 4 wheel steering? Did it feel big?

@@jsonli I’ve driven a lot of cars on this road from Miata’s to GT3’s and the LC is top 5 best driving experiences I’ve had. Sure it’s not the fastest but the overall driving experience is just amazing. Steering feel is a bit numb. the LC belongs to my dad and he’s a big car enthusiast and he believes the car is very soft. However, I do believe this has more steering feel than any bmw F8X I’ve driven. My GT4 has more feel through and through. This car is a 2024 with dynamic handling package, so it has the RWS. I’ve driven one without RWS and it makes a HUGE difference. The LC is still a big and heavy car but with the RWS it feels more nimble; I akin it to a hippo wearing ballerina shoes 😂. As an overall car with the comfort and leather and performance it’s an amazing package, but it’s not as sporty as a Porsche if that’s what you’re looking for. Thanks for watching!

@@gentianmedia3814 Exactly, the IS500 is a comfort sedan with some hidden sportiness that will poke it's head out when asked...also very tail happy. I've learned to live with the flashing traction control light at every stop....unless I turn off traction control at which point it is extremely happy to lay double black lines to 100+feet. The LC is more planted, firmer and sportier in all sections but not the harsh true sports car. It literally is the definition of GT coupe (Grand Touring). More then enough power and speed to get some chrome plated bracelets...but a touch of class that cannot be explained. Honestly my dream car since I was a kid was the Porsche 911....but it has been replaced by the LC. Maybe it's because I am old...and appreciate the refinement over the pure sports mindedness of other cars. If you're looking for a street racer..this aint it.

I have one and couldn't agree more. Love it!

Yes, this id say the video 95% representative to how the leather actually looks. I personally love it.

caramel is unquestionably the best interior on this car

I just bought one with the toasted caramel interior! It’s gorgeous!

The 2024 cars have the new infotainment so it is just a button on top of the volume knob that leads to the climate screen. I prefer a physical button for those as well (especially a sync button) but it could be worse

I have the LC 21' with the old infotainment system. I enabled 'climate concierge' and in the 1.5 years of ownership never had to go into the climate menu to fiddle with anything. Only used the temperature rocker switch occasionally. I think the whole issue is overblown. The 24' model improved it with a touch screen, but older models are fine.

@@robohofo1 I rented a 24’ LC500 for a week and I had to go through at least two layers of the Lexus UI system just to access the climate controls. Also, the climate control UI screen is also different layer from the heated/ventilated seat and heated steering wheel screen. I’m aware there’s a heated/ventilated seat bottom under the aluminum volume knob near the gear shift, but after pressing that button I need to also touch the screen to adjust my settings vs. the traditional Lexus Heated/Ventilated seat buttons. A simple climate button would’ve solved all these extra steps.

@@gentianmedia3814 If my memory serves my right, the heated/ventilated seat button was below the aluminum volume knob…but I could be wrong. I just hated the fact I had to go through multiple steps just to achieve the desired climate settings versus the traditional Lexus heated/ventilated buttons which eliminates the step touching the screen plus provides you information on what setting via how many leds are lighted up. But, I do agree with you. It could be much worse.

@@criancrna1487 it aint that hard

Yes, it was in sport plus. I actually overheated the trans in the video at 9:50, but I kept up shifting and downshifting when I arguably didn’t needed to. I just drove it in one gear for 5 min then it resolved. That’s the only issue I had with the car. I think the TH-camr savage geese but higher grade fluid in his LC trans and it helped but it’s definitely still a weak-point in the car.

​@@gentianmedia3814thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I currently own a GSF but I absolutely love the LC. Complete package GT car but I do wish it had the additional go-fast goodies to keep the temps down

@@edward101697 if you’re street driving the car it should be ok

@@edward101697they do, check out blitz carbon intake system

North Mexico! ;)

@@gentianmedia3814 looks like tail of the dragon

@@bitkahuna 🤷‍♂️

987 spyder, 918 spyder Same same but different 🤩

🙌🏼

💀

So quick and snappy too!

It stick out like a sore thumb. The older ones looked way better.

@@shogunero3.6 I agree, especially cuz they had the design that went towards the passenger side, but new one works way betterb

@@gentianmedia3814 i use apple carplay on my '21, it's fine.

Wow small world!! Henry is awesome, I called last minute for a rental and he organized us to drive the 918 and we also had the senna available. Definitely takes some balls to sit along with strangers but the high pricing should filter the crazy people out ;) thanks for watching!

@@gentianmedia3814 I mean compared to what usual exotic car rental companies charge for huracans and 570s, these guys rates are pretty darn cheap for the caliber of cars they let you drive. I was going to rent the Chiron ss when they had the prices on sale but I wasn’t 23 at the time

Thank you Danial! Will have to meet up again soon 👊

You can see me mutter under my breath right after launch 😂
