  • In this video I talk about the top three complaints that I heard when researching the 2021 Lexus LC500. I go through each of these issues and describe why I don't think they are actually problems at all :)

    The infotainment complaints are grossly overblown and more of a talking point for reviewers than anything else. Touchscreens are greasy, dirty and tacky plus the overwhelming majority are abruptly jammed into a dashboard like a gravestone. Lexus touchpad isn't the best out there, especially compared to something like BMW i-Drive, but it's still easy enough to use (perhaps less so for people who barely have any time with it). Also there's physical controls for the HVAC and shit that matters while driving. The LC500's screen integration (pre-2024) is better than 95% of vehicles on the market.

      Hi my brother is a lexus RX350 owner here. The lexus touch screens are amazingly well done and I've had mine for 6 months. Not a single smudge on it and he said he doesn't clean it at all.

    I have the same touch pad infosys on my RX and I can tell you that once you’re familiar with the menus you don’t even need to look at the screen to know what you’re selecting, your fingers just know where to go to the item. Versus the touchscreen you’ve got to look at where your finger is pointing.

    owning the 2018 coupe,I can’t agree more! The touchpad is awesome in the way you described. In fact, when I had the is500 (it’s got both touch screen and pad), I never use the touch screen and use the pad exclusively because it’s so much more comfortable to use.

    Regarding the complaints about having to go through tons of menus to adjust the cooled/heated seats. The climate concierge works great but if you want to manually adjust them quickly, simply click on the icon on the right part of the screen that looks like a stick figure sitting down with an arrow pointing at his head. That takes you directly to the ventilated seat controls. Extremely quick and easy.

    I have a 21 vert, the track pad is clunky but I use it so infrequently, it matters very little. The new screen and tech provides some benefits but the design of the dash is pretty much ruined.

    Totally agree with the infotainment system. Voice command works excellent and even pulls up seat heater function.

    You are 100% correct... In everyday driving, the 2UR V8 has PLENTY of power! No it isn't a track weapon, but comfort and capability is the name of the game. Thanks for posting!

    I have one in the UK and agree with all your views except to say the upright position of the back seat makes it very uncomfortable for all but short journeys but it also provides great storage space😀

    I’ve had the coupe since 2019 and really don’t think about the track pad anymore. I use CarPlay exclusively and it’s a non-issue.

    Coming from an LS, i def miss all of the convenience features. I hate that lexus refused to put in the birdseye view camera. People complaining bout the infotainment system havent tried bmws and mercs and lambo where there are no physical buttons at all

    The back seats are not back seats, they are insurance reducers. Also note the back seats are not leather so not equal at all.

    I agree - the touchscreen makes you lean up out of your normal position to use. And you very rarely need to access any of it once you have everything set up.

    Won’t it be much cheaper to buy from a private seller and do a full inspection at a dealer before buying it? Im curious how the 2025 will look. If it looks better then 24 I’ll wait till that one is couple of year then buy it if not then maybe in couple years buy the 24 used one since they finally changed the no more pad in e middle. I have older vehicles for just liability for 3 vehicles for a year I pay only like $600. Are you glad you got it or u wish u got something different?

      Very happy with the purchase. Yes, being able to see the car and inspect it would have been ideal but these are pretty rare.
