In this video, we dive into the history behind the Lexus LC 500, its connection to the legendary LFA, and why this car feels so important right now. From Yamaha-tuned engine notes to the story of Akio Toyoda pushing Lexus to stop building “boring” cars, the LC 500 feels like more than just a Grand Tourer. It feels like the last chapter of something special.
I also spend time actually living with the LC 500 Inspiration Series to see what it’s like day to day, how the V8 feels in 2026, and whether this Lexus really deserves the hype.
Vehicle: 2026 Lexus LC 500 Inspiration Series
Engine: 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8

What do you think? Is the Lexus LC 500 already a classic, or is the world overlooking one of Lexus’ best modern cars?
