This guy gets it!! The piece of aluminum on the inside door panel is "ambient lighting". It glows at night. The push button door lock on the inside lights up in green. The cool features are endless. The design and engineering that went into this car is mind-boggling.
The moment when Bobby said the interior stitching is like a Birkin Bag, I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS CAR ALREADY !!! One of the best- almost perfect car ever
i think people say that this lexus is just a toyota even though it is clearly built to be a lexus not a cheap car that people can just buy so that they can feel good about the cheap low end BMW and Merc that they own. When they see one, they know they want one, but just say "oh it's only a toyota" so that they don't have to feel bad about buying a shit car. they couldn't afford this car so decided to buy a cheap BMW or Merc and brag about the badge...smh
Kudos to you Bobby, you really are a genuine auto journalist... you see pass thru what others don’t and that is understanding what the vehicle is made for... it has the same DNA as the LFA where you are right as well as stating as this is the “touring” version of their supercar. This car was designed to show the world what Akihido Toyoda wants which is, Lexus can be entertaining ang not “boring”.
BEST car of 2017. The best NON exotic car to come out in a very long time. The interior is exotic level in design and execution. Nothing from Germany offers a complete combination like this car Great job Lexus. I can't wait to see the high performance F version
It is indeed a bargain..you get a great looking car, superb engine n transmission combo, top notch, intricate interior with build n materials to match n lexus reliability n build quality..whats not to like.
this is amazing!!!!! wow! and to think this is only the beginning. I can't wait to see what this awesome luxury car manufacturer comes up with Next. this is just out of this world.
I test drove the BMW 8 & Mercedes S class coups but bought the LC500 Sport + and two months on am very happy with my decision, there’s only 428 in the UK at the time of writing.
You made the right choice. The 8 series just isn't worth its price from a workmanship, exclusivity standpoint. It has the same interior build quality as the 3 series. The S Class Coupe is of course beautifully finished and lovely to look at. But to drive, it's a boat, and of course the electronic gremlins in an S Class and the reliability of their big engines always come into question. The LC500 is finished in a level both can't compete. My only small gripe is that the gear level assembly is the good ol' Japanese 'screw it' design. (Yes, you can unscrew the gear knob like every Japanese car) Good choice there!
I'm in the UK and this is half the price or a DB11. You could have this and an Audi SQ7 (for family use) for the price of the Aston. More reliable too.
Hi Bobby, I am not able to see the Infrared with the toasted caramel in person. Can I get your opinion on this color combination? Do you prefer it over, say, Infrared and black interior?
@@MartinHannett_ yea, looking back, i totally take back my past statement, this car is so utterly bloody freaking breathtaking, maybe it's because im a weeb now
It slides open to reveal a cup holder and a small storage space. Then you can hinge it up to reveal a storage area for your phone and wallet. use to close and it gently retreats.
I've owned a Mercedes Benz S Class 350 d for the past two years. I am tired of things breaking off, both interior and exterior. At the moment, the electric window button on the driver's door is busted. I'm seriously thinking about getting rid of it for a Lexus.
The M850i is faster, should handle better, has a better infotainment screen but the LC500 is the one I would go for as it has that teutonic build quality, the interior feels wayyyyyyyyy more upmarket than the M850i and the naturally aspirated sound is just one to die for. And we don't have to hazard a guess as to which will hold its value better and be a bit more special down the road.
hi bobby, you hasnt review any lexus except this one :( everyone is waiting for it. pls do review for the new gs200t.rx350,is250. and also satria neo r3, haha *hope you can see this comment
Lexus has different engineers, designers, management and manufacturing plants. It makes no sense in saying Lexus is a Toyota anymore than saying the Bugatti is a Volkswagen. Bugatti is owned by Volkswagen and Lexus by Toyota. But who says Bugatti is just a fancy Volkswagen?
You can get the two tone colour option as well, the white and blue leather option with yellowish or tan alcantara. It's even more stunning than this interior colour which is already fabulous.
Bobby would really appreciate if you are able to review the Lexus ES250 and maybe compare it with the C-class, 3 series, and A4 as well, since the fall in the the same price bracket. Thx in advance :)
Woudn't the ES250 be compared against E-class, 5 series and A5 and the IS against the C-class, 3 series and A4? They're the same segment but the pricing is different tho. Weird
Very very big difference. The RC has a Lexus IS interior. This has an interior that is closer to that of Bentleys and Aston Martins. At this price, it's a bargain.
A bargain? Yes, only if it's sold outside of Malaysia/Singapore. In what planet do you get a drive-away price tag of a Lexus LC500 at 940k MYR? A whoping 38-45% above the driveaway prices of LC500 in Australia (678k MYR) and South Korea (647k MYR), respectively. Probably far far away somewhere in planet Mars. With the pocket change of spending 940k MYR in Australia ...you'd still have enough dough to buy one of these: Mercedes-Benz GLA 250, Benz C 200, MINI Cooper S, Audi A4, BMW 330e, and the list goes on... Nice vid nonetheless!
For me his accent is very soothing and makes me calm and concentrated somehow :). Especially the interior part is great. But the "OK" said at the end of nearly each sentence is funny :D
The closest competition to this car (Porsche Carerra, Aston V8 Vantage, BMW 650i, Jag F-Type, Mercedes SL65), are less equipped in their base form, a lot more expensive to own and maintain and a lot less reliable. If you'r not buying this coz it was made by the ppl who make the most reliable cars on the planet, then it's your loss ;)
That is double the price, and won't be able to catch up with this in the mountain roads. This can touge and gran tour, that one can only do long distance driving.
This guy gets it!! The piece of aluminum on the inside door panel is "ambient lighting". It glows at night. The push button door lock on the inside lights up in green. The cool features are endless. The design and engineering that went into this car is mind-boggling.
It's 2022 and this car is still a breakthrough! Amazing.
That Lexus is a beast. It's faster than what claimed to be.

totally agree
Absolutely correct
I love the way you articulate your opinions about the car. Detailed, descriptive, interesting to listen to. Thank you!

the host is honest .he speak from how he felt not biased saying shitty stuff
exactly. Not no motortrend bullshit

The guy making so much sense on Describing someone how a driver to feel like
Should give credits to the designer and engineer of Toyota here. .first 1 came out as Almost Concept car .Good Job!!!
This car is just stunning! It's also made with precision.
i thought it was going to price around 1.5 million. Damn 900k !!
still expensive haha
Tengku Victor Von Hansgan please dont compared it to the Axia price tag... lol
buy mp3 player and drive axia, same sound also
Near to a mil. Can buy a condor
now it is RM1.24m,increased by RM300k without any notice.
In the US, an LC500 with Performance Package, 21" tires, HUD and ML stereo, the price is around $106,000.
Very satisfied review man !
OMG that back infinity light. My jaw literally drop
I really enjoyed this review. Cheers from Poland.
I'm in the UK and this is half the price or a DB11. You could have this and an Audi SQ7 (for family use) for the price of the Aston. More reliable too.
I couldn't agree with you more! I need to go see one in person
Hi Bobby, I am not able to see the Infrared with the toasted caramel in person. Can I get your opinion on this color combination? Do you prefer it over, say, Infrared and black interior?
Yes, it's better than black colour interior. Go get it and know that I envy you for the next hundred years!
Bobby Ang i love your vids! Thank you man!!!
Great review! Only one little error and that's the cup holder. There is one under that little door ahead of and to the left of the Volume Knob.
You should trade in your 6 series into this hella of a beast man... grind harder and im sure you can afford it😅👌🏻
All 10 units allocated for Malaysia are sold out; which 3 of them were bought by the Sultan of Johor.
I like the last part haha. No problem, I already subscribed and liked your facebook page ✌✌
Really the current most beautiful car after the db11
i think more so than the DB.
@@MartinHannett_ yea, looking back, i totally take back my past statement, this car is so utterly bloody freaking breathtaking, maybe it's because im a weeb now
Patrick Bradley looks better than the db11 !!!
Great Review Bobby! My whatever 'air' also can 'keluar' when watching your review!! :D
Is it a good car to buy?
Bobby, Where to service/maintain this if I get a used unit?
I'm so curious how does the glovebox open and how it looks like inside.
It slides open to reveal a cup holder and a small storage space. Then you can hinge it up to reveal a storage area for your phone and wallet. use to close and it gently retreats.
Lexus is much more premium feel compare with BMW n Mercedes at same segment
Do you notice when u start the car.. The rpm slightly higher to get the roar from exhaust
The car is AWESOME!!
Just subscribed , greetings from Melbourne, Australia.....interesting review!!
+Kumar Kuppusamy thanks! Sorry for the malaysian/singaporean accent haha
There is a cup holder. It's in front of the volume knob under the cover.
LUCAS!!! IM HEREEEEE
I've owned a Mercedes Benz S Class 350 d for the past two years. I am tired of things breaking off, both interior and exterior. At the moment, the electric window button on the driver's door is busted. I'm seriously thinking about getting rid of it for a Lexus.
Yes. You should. Lexus won't. Never will.
Which interior color would you buy? The red with black or this beige?
Red with beige.
@@BobbyAngmalaysia i didn't see that color combo in the catalog hmmmm🤔
Here for the 2nd time because of the C63 Sedan video.......
Damn #atas interior
Love your review!
thanks! hope you've subscribed! :)
Bobby Ang sure, subscribed for years. And I bet you will be super successful if you enter the world of 抖音 in China :)
Errm ur way of describing the car is a bit exaggerated bt gotta love tat reaction to the engine sound!!!
It's not exaggerated, if you understand the art of craftsmanship you will probably find it true
@@Yddp3307 💯💯
this or the continental gt?
Continental are more expensive and it's different levels compared to Lexus.
For me, depends on my budgets. But the Lexus are beast an superior.
masterpiece…!
Dear Bobby get ur advice! M850i or this LC500?
The M850i is faster, should handle better, has a better infotainment screen but the LC500 is the one I would go for as it has that teutonic build quality, the interior feels wayyyyyyyyy more upmarket than the M850i and the naturally aspirated sound is just one to die for. And we don't have to hazard a guess as to which will hold its value better and be a bit more special down the road.
Thks Bro 我会想好好来的😀😀😀!
01:33 "We have goto to the tunnel... "lol
Doesn’t anyone wonder why they can’t make the steering column to match the rest of the interior?
Are you using Gopro? whic model?
bobby,can u review the latest Peugeot 3008(malaysia edition).the best if u can do comparison with latest CRV,CX5 & X-Trail.
Fantastic review. Thanks.
hi bobby, you hasnt review any lexus except this one :( everyone is waiting for it. pls do review for the new gs200t.rx350,is250. and also satria neo r3, haha *hope you can see this comment

💯💯💯
Hey Bobby, just out of curiosity, is that 6 series cabrio your own car?
+Kevin Prince yupe
Bobby, do you review the Lexus RX?
+Bobby Ang Nice!
Kevin Prince ..
Please review the Lexus RX350, ty !
900 k men its really a bargain .
Beyond BMW AUDI BENZ
All that needs to be said
IT LOOKED INSANE
_thank you for the tease_
(-_+)
i loved the lights!
awesome job
I like how the whole interior is made up of only one colour
You can get the two tone colour option as well, the white and blue leather option with yellowish or tan alcantara. It's even more stunning than this interior colour which is already fabulous.
No cup holders? There's a missed design oppertunity.
Is that infinity tail light 'INSPIRED' from new citroen c4 picasso?
Can you make a review of the new crv??? Cuz its gorgeous
Bobby would really appreciate if you are able to review the Lexus ES250 and maybe compare it with the C-class, 3 series, and A4 as well, since the fall in the the same price bracket. Thx in advance :)
Woudn't the ES250 be compared against E-class, 5 series and A5 and the IS against the C-class, 3 series and A4? They're the same segment but the pricing is different tho. Weird
Apart from handling, the ES250 is better than all of them in every other measure.
Bobby Ang any chance to have an ES250 being review by you?😊 #LookingForwardToIt
Handling, design and power lose to usual Europeans I believe.
handsome fuckin beast!
Gorgeous car...
Is this a Bigger RCF with a refined interior?
Very very big difference. The RC has a Lexus IS interior. This has an interior that is closer to that of Bentleys and Aston Martins. At this price, it's a bargain.
True dat
A bargain? Yes, only if it's sold outside of Malaysia/Singapore.
In what planet do you get a drive-away price tag of a Lexus LC500 at 940k MYR? A whoping 38-45% above the driveaway prices of LC500 in Australia (678k MYR) and South Korea (647k MYR), respectively. Probably far far away somewhere in planet Mars.

Nice vid nonetheless!
This happens to every other brands too.
Bro in Singapore this thing is going at 450k SGD. Thats 1.35 mil MYR
Dude 450k in SG is a bargain when it's only 3 times the price of a Camry.
Can you view Ford Mustang in future
Just search in my channel. it's already reviewed.
Whatever air also keluar
hyundai elantra,please
lan c car💪💪💪💪💪
1ST~~~
Lexus IS review......
I think I'm spoilt with English accent while I was studying in UK... but this Malaysian Chinglish is causing me ear cancer lol
Rest in peace then.
Marc C rip then😂
For me his accent is very soothing and makes me calm and concentrated somehow :). Especially the interior part is great. But the "OK" said at the end of nearly each sentence is funny :D
Marc C. You need to get around more mate. Accents from different cultures adds color and meaning to videos like this.
british accent is awful
Interior is great but exterior is ugly modern look
Rm900k eh ? Thats too much to pay for a toyota.
The closest competition to this car (Porsche Carerra, Aston V8 Vantage, BMW 650i, Jag F-Type, Mercedes SL65), are less equipped in their base form, a lot more expensive to own and maintain and a lot less reliable. If you'r not buying this coz it was made by the ppl who make the most reliable cars on the planet, then it's your loss ;)
Enough with the Toyota joke, this car is not based on any Toyotas inside out.
boy638 cuz he's the same guy that driving a proton and pretend to be a Mitsubishi lol
you have rm900K eh?????? sound like frustrated stupid guy!!!!!!!
My friend here needs to do more homework about how a car works. These car stereotypes seriously needs to stop.
s class coupe any day over this glorified toyota
That is double the price, and won't be able to catch up with this in the mountain roads. This can touge and gran tour, that one can only do long distance driving.
you can actually get a used s500 coupe around 850k
Buk Lau beautiful car. But cant corner.
Few years later, you can get recond LC500 for less too.
Buk Lau lol this LEXUS is better then the Benz coupe. Haters gonna hate
