So far, I’ve spent a little over 250 miles driving the Lexus LC. I’m tempted to ask them to let me have it. But I agreed to write a review on it and that’s what I’m going to do. Before anything though, I’d like to know if you guys wanted to know anything about it.

Let me get something out of the way first: I love the LC. Yes, I know it’s an old person/old money GT in the same vein as an 11th-gen Ford T-Bird or Bentley Continential GT or any year of the Mercedes SL. But this thing is rolling art; a concept car put into production. If I could park it inside of my house on the side of my bed I would. But anyway…

The LC is Lexus’ flagship. “But I thought the LS was?” you might ask. Not anymore. It’s true that LS embodies what the Lexus brand is, but the LC goes further than that. Think of it as an LS coupe in a sense that looks just as big as an LS, but it’s strangely smaller measuring just 187.4 inches long. That’s 0.9 inches shorter than a Ford Mustang for perspective.

While a hybrid 3.5-liter V6 is available on the LC 500h, the LC 500 is powered by the same 5.0-liter V8 used in all the F cars. That V8 makes 471 American muscle car-sounding horses in the LC.

I mentioned that this thing is rolling art right? It’s not just the exterior, that extends to the interior too. You’re surrounded by curves and angles of leather and suede that all makes for a surprisingly intuitive interior. At first glance, you may get turned off by a certain interior feature that I’ll mention in the review, but you weirdly will get used to it.

I think that’s enough of a preview before the real review. Just let me know what you mightwant to know about it down in the comments.

A Manual Toyota Yaris iA Is Secretly A Super Fun Car
There are few greater joys on this Earth than a good small car. They’re easy to park and live with, chuckable when you want some action. The iA is the perfect example. It’s an absolute delight with a manual transmission, and a car that’s woefully overlooked on the road. (:...

The doesn’t look special. From a distance, it looks like any other Audi sedan—a pattern Audi one day. But it’s when you get up close to the car, when you start to see a red tint to the leather and a diamond stitching in the seats, that you know there’s...

At $7,500, Could This 1978 Porsche 928 Have You Singing Wake Up Little Butzi?
Today’s 928 is good from far, but far from good, the result of it having been sittingfor years. Might its price still warrant a standing ovation? I want car with paint that’s the color of dirt, and a looooong roof. Yes, some of you question our affinity for brown wagons....

At $3,700, Would You Take This 1986 Nissan Maxima To The Max?
Japanese luxury cars have come a long way since today’s Maxima was built back in ‘86. This was once Nissan’s most opulent offering here, but now it’s just a nice old wagon with plush tufted seats. Let’s see what all that old school splendor is worth. I was shocked yesterday—SHOCKED...
