Well I’ll say it again , Stevon has the best TH-cam channel on things and whatnot including cars and bikes and raccoons and wood working and dock building and cooking and so on and so forth And I look forward to seeing what’s next every week THANKS Stevon ! Ps that is one sweet reliable Lexus!thanks for the tour and the sounds!
It's bizarre to me that Toyota builds all these amazing Coupes under another brand that THEY OWN, and than says to themselves "... Hey let's get BMW to build us our new sports car, it'd be too expensive to build our own" like WHUT! Great video, I didn't know anything about these so this was a great run down
I loved my 08 ISF, as soon as I heard about the LC500 I wanted one. Couldn’t afford it but it’s one that’ll always be on my list to get someday. The 2UR GSE V8 is an incredible engine.
This is one of the best car reviews I've seen. You know we've heard all the other stuff, so you hand us the facts you have to literally mine for. Bravo.
Dude such a nice car you don't see often! Been saving up for one, since I saw it in person last year. You should try install the car play module thing .
Except on the track or any performance metric. The LC of course is not designed to beat anything on the road performance wise but thats not the point of it. Its a cruiser as long as you stay off the track and never race anything its bliss. Insane build quality also the LC is the ultimate GT cruiser i would say the F cars are the ultimate NA V8 hybrid track cars. I wouldnt say better to compare really night and day difference performance wise but different if driving them both . And thats a good thing its a breath of fresh air to have a great Luxury cruiser based off the LS chassis and have options for full F cars for track duty with better track components like Carbon Brakes and better aero tires acceleration , trans cooling and the biggest thing weight reduction. The LC gets more luxurious of course. You cant go wrong with either option for different buyers. Different not better i would say because as soon as you line up on a track or any road you will see why that is.
My dad has one of these. When he first started it up and rev’d it I was extremely impressed. This car has the best sounding v8 I’ve ever heard in person. The interior is just amazing too. Everything about it is elegant but it can get wild really quick as well. I wished it came in a manual but it’s fine, the automatic transmission is brilliant and the shifts sound amazing anyways. If I ever get the money, the LC500 would be one of my top picks
@@mitchkohl Perhaps. The LC is over a foot longer than the current Supra. But they could probably pull it off. Sort of like they did on the truck side with TNGA-F underpinning everything from the Tacoma to LX600 Lexus.
The Lexus IS500 is currently my dream car. I personally feel the IS500 is a bit more practical (more doors/seating room)... But damn you did an incredible job at showing this car's finest points. The sound is immaculate
It exists because the show car version resulted in a lot of build it feed back. I have a 21 vert, wonderful car. I get lots of positive feedback when I take it out and really enjoy driving it.
Alllll right... My apologies, but I just gotta ask as it's been on my mind for a while now since sub'ing to this wonderful channel. What does Stevon do for a living (aside from this side hustle)???? I see LOTS of subtle (humble) flex happening in a lot of these videos and I just couldn't hold back on the ask any more. Maybe this has been discussed in comments from previous videos and I missed it (i.e. didn't read far enough down or MAYBE just maybe not at all, which honestly is unusual). OH annnd if it's great money, with great benefits, a relaxed atmosphere with no evening and weekends that intrude on family time, are they hiring?
Hes always been the most subtle about it. His parents raised him right. He was c level executive at tesla before most people knew what tesla was.. thats my guess.
my fav modern gt car. here as far as i know there is a few, but the 3 that are selling in my country are 500H... hybrid v6. so i got a 992 targa4. i still want a green convertable lc500 with the tan interior but hey, can't have them all.
Did you forbid yourself from being friends with Rich since you guys get in trouble when you're around each other? Love the car btw. Is it fun to drive in the corners?
Just wait until Finnegan finishes his LC500. Then it will have the performance it should have had since it came out. And kudos to whoever did the color choice on the interior.
@@allanjones8382 - Yes but he's presenting this video late 2024 so it's relevant to at least mention Lexus has responded to criticism on the touchpad and got rid of it. Instead he just listed it as a con. Touche' on concept car coming out in 2012, my mistake
Not sure why this reviewer doesn't have a couple of million followers. Excellent review and extra points for humor and production value.
algorithms are weird it seems.
we just have to post it in other places. That much is clear.
Well... it's new. And Stevon was kinda busy making Rich Rebuilds awesome before then.
He will gain followers in time without a doubt
Bought my 18 LC over a year ago. Best car I’ve ever owned
Does the infotainment touchpad not drive you crazy? Guessing even if it did it would be worth it.
@@fnbtwo i have one as well, i prefer no touch screen because the rest of the dash looks nicer, the touch pad design loses the passenger dash lights
This IS one of the greatest cars. and Stevon one of the greatest car/house/build/raccoon/nature/music/ any type of youtuber
Been looking for a used one about 5 months and finally got it, it make me smile everytime I start her up, TH-cam can’t do it justice
Stevon just doing side quest videos for OUR entertainment
FINALLY, couldn't wait when this beauty will be addressed.
Well I’ll say it again , Stevon has the best TH-cam channel on things and whatnot including cars and bikes and raccoons and wood working and dock building and cooking and so on and so forth
And I look forward to seeing what’s next every week THANKS
Stevon !
Ps that is one sweet reliable Lexus!thanks for the tour and the sounds!
My new favorite car reviewer aside from everything else he does.
Best thing Rich ever did is bring him to us
I absolutely love my lc500 convertible ! It is so fun to drive.
It's bizarre to me that Toyota builds all these amazing Coupes under another brand that THEY OWN, and than says to themselves "... Hey let's get BMW to build us our new sports car, it'd be too expensive to build our own" like WHUT! Great video, I didn't know anything about these so this was a great run down
Supras should always be Inline 6 turbo and Toyota didnt have any inline 6 engines that that time, so it's much better with BMW.
Toyota (Lexus) also didn't build the V8 in the LC500. It collaborated with Yamaha.
Besides, that V8 wouldn't fit in a Supra.
I loved my 08 ISF, as soon as I heard about the LC500 I wanted one. Couldn’t afford it but it’s one that’ll always be on my list to get someday. The 2UR GSE V8 is an incredible engine.
ISF is also such an awesome car.
I’ve been searching for an ISF that I can actually afford for years.
Thanks for the video, great fan service for us scrubs who could only dream of this beauty!
Also happy to see that you're a TCCN viewer
This channel is awesome.that is all. Also thanks for the neat fun facts stevo. Now that is all I think about
One of the best car reviews I’ve seen in a while, your style is fresh 💪
Just the fact that you know how to pronounce Coupe is all I need. 💥 👏
a man of culture for sure
My god.... the eyewitness video intro music triggered the biggest release of nostalgia I've had in a long time.
You are too good at this, absolute banger.
I thought I was well versed in the LC, but those are a few things I did not know. And the Yamaha logo meaning?! Mind blownnnnnn
This is one of the best car reviews I've seen. You know we've heard all the other stuff, so you hand us the facts you have to literally mine for. Bravo.
This is how all car reviews should be. Fantastico Stevo
Dude such a nice car you don't see often! Been saving up for one, since I saw it in person last year. You should try install the car play module thing .
It was a good ted talk, please do more in the future.
It baffles me how few subscribers this channel has. The content quality is great!
Got me there with Doug intro 😂
I had an 2016 RCF, and it was a great car. The LC is better in almost every way, and one of the biggest sleepers of all time. Great video!

Stevon re-discovered the beauty of the LC500 whilst cleaning off all the grinding arisings.
Nice. Never knew those existed. Looks great.
Same here
Best Ted Talk I’ve listened to.. humour & production value all on point! 👏👏
This is my dream car! The quality and luxury of Lexus, but the throating V8 of a muscle car!
Terrific job and a terrific car. Thanks for sharing this.😊
GREAT review! You had me laughing out loud. Thanks for posting! 💙👏🏽
As an owner of a ‘23 LC, I agree with this message.
Has keen eye for architecture
The more you know : about the infinity taillights, it's a Valeo brevet that was first presented on the citroen ds3 and c4 picasso.
Stevon has a LC, Stevon is my idol now
My dad has one of these. When he first started it up and rev’d it I was extremely impressed. This car has the best sounding v8 I’ve ever heard in person. The interior is just amazing too. Everything about it is elegant but it can get wild really quick as well. I wished it came in a manual but it’s fine, the automatic transmission is brilliant and the shifts sound amazing anyways. If I ever get the money, the LC500 would be one of my top picks
I have a white LC500, I love it so much, so underrated and perfect. I had a 2020 supra and traded it in for this. Best car I've ever owned.
i had no idea the yamaha logo was tuning forks NO IDEA. Stevon, a teacher of many things. Whether you expect them or not.
This is on my short list of cars I would love to own, and have been admiring it in the background silently
Don’t forget to like and subscribe to the channel
hell yes! and share elsewhere!!
Its probably the most underrated car ever.
Fantastic car, altough I miss the flatplane crank sound of his bigger brother the LFA.
i like Natalie Portman looking at me like that too. I just need a LC 500 now....
Holy shit real ultimate power! I can hear that big pimpin midi looping around in my head.
this SENT me. probably the hardest I laughed at a webpage in my life.
This platform should have been the basis for the current Supra, change my mind.
this. 100% this. Would be too big according to many though.. agree?
@@mitchkohl Perhaps. The LC is over a foot longer than the current Supra. But they could probably pull it off. Sort of like they did on the truck side with TNGA-F underpinning everything from the Tacoma to LX600 Lexus.
Infinity didn't even think of the Infinity lights 🤣
That was one of my favorite quips too lol
Best LC500 video ever
That is one pretty car. The kind that can afford the extra syllah~ble in "coupe" and not get weird looks.
I prefer the touchpad over the touchscreen honestly
"Child bearing hips" on the thumbnail got me
Great video.
As of the ‘24 model they’ve gotten rid of the annoying track pad.
The Lexus IS500 is currently my dream car. I personally feel the IS500 is a bit more practical (more doors/seating room)... But damn you did an incredible job at showing this car's finest points. The sound is immaculate
Own one in infrared with toasted caramel.
Performance package and full carbon goodies.
Love it, perfect GT car.
Nice review, was wondering what you thought of the car when grinding the electric motorcycle frame next to it.
It exists because the show car version resulted in a lot of build it feed back. I have a 21 vert, wonderful car. I get lots of positive feedback when I take it out and really enjoy driving it.
Looking forward to you turning this over to the ultimate Batmobile
Had mine for getting on 3.5 years and I can't see anything else that takes my fancy, so here's to the next however many years!
dude this was an excellent review
Love the LC500 .... wish I could afford one. It will be a modern classic.
What about the quirks and features?
THE YAMAHA LOGO IS THREE TUNING FORKS?!!!!!!
Muy bueno stevonnn🎉🎉🎉

@@EAron-bl1lz right, but how about now?
Yoooo that's my copper crest car in the middlleeeee
really?! thats so sick!!!
my fav modern gt car. here as far as i know there is a few, but the 3 that are selling in my country are 500H... hybrid v6. so i got a 992 targa4. i still want a green convertable lc500 with the tan interior but hey, can't have them all.
Getting one in early 2025, can not wait.
congratulations to you! one of the best choices it seems.
@@EAron-bl1lzThank you! It truly is special
Great content❤Now, wheres that song from?
I noticed you didn't sample the performance pack. You should!
Do you call her elsie?
More reliable than an Aston
I already have a Toyota product I’m very happy with….but I could use a krispy kream doughnut 🍩
I knew it before all the TH-cam videos made the used prices jump £10k.
Love this video!!! 👍👍👍
2:55 "court-ordered urine sample yellow" 💀💀💀
The auto erotic asphyxiation purple is my favorite! 😈
Totally agree. One of the best cars of this millenium
Lol at the intro,. I friggin LOVE that song! I just don't own it yet.
I think this is the car with combines the Aston Martin design and flair with the porsche GT3 radical total response and a mighty V8 thunder
Steveon how did you get so rich ?
Currently drive a GR86, one of these or a corvette C8 will be my next car
Yes! Was waiting for this
Love my RCF fast unique and yes more reliable then the rest..love love love
The LC500 is my dream weekend car
The LS500 is my dream daily
The ES300H is the daily I can afford
You shouldn't buy an LC500...You should buy 2!! This car is hands down one of the best car ever created! Hopefully soon🤞🤞
I endorse this effort to write off your toys as business expenses for your TH-cam channel.
hahaahh the ol' IYKYK
Nothing beats the LFA
Did you forbid yourself from being friends with Rich since you guys get in trouble when you're around each other? Love the car btw. Is it fun to drive in the corners?
rich did dirty dishonestly route. its a damn shame...
@mitchkohl Really? How do you know?..And what's the skinny?
They’re gettin the band back together love it!
This video had exactly what it always needed. Pan flute.
... and the price is (more than) right.
So I guess we gave up on the ankle bracelet bit
How could you not mention the updated multimedia for 2024?
is this Steve from Rich Rebuilds?
it sure is. you are now learning where the mastermind behind the production went like the rest of us lol
That house is an epic pad… how the heck do you afford that place on a small YT channel budget?!?
Child bearing hips is a wild statement to make on a car 💀
Was this an infomercial?
hard to tell, but unlike infomercials this is genuine love for the product, that much is for sure
Just wait until Finnegan finishes his LC500. Then it will have the performance it should have had since it came out.
And kudos to whoever did the color choice on the interior.
Nice, but it won't scare the living shit out of a whole family like a GS F does. At least not all at the same time.
DUDEE YEESSSSS STTEVONNNNN
LC500 no longer has the touchpad. Also it's debut was 2018 not 2012
It sure doesn't but he bought his when it cam out years back. and the DEBUT in 2012 as the LF-LC. He is correct, the man does his homework.
@@allanjones8382 - Yes but he's presenting this video late 2024 so it's relevant to at least mention Lexus has responded to criticism on the touchpad and got rid of it. Instead he just listed it as a con. Touche' on concept car coming out in 2012, my mistake
But the grill looks like it's trying to shave my face!
😆
No your not hard core unless you live hard core.
LC is short for LLC 👀
Ayyyyyyyy I see what you did there
