SavageGeese gives the 2024 Lexus LC500 a solidly positive 75/100 OctaneScore, praising it as a special, non-disposable luxury car with genuine soul. The LC500 excels in reliability and build quality—its interior stitching and fit-and-finish rival Porsche and Mercedes while promising 10-20 years of ownership—plus standout additions like the new 360 camera and customizable "Bespoke Build" options with stunning colors like Copper Crust. However, livability remains the weakest point at 40/100, with the stiff ride on pavement a lingering concern despite damper improvements, and the new touchscreen interface is criticized as an awkward afterthought; the $120,000 price also sits uncomfortably close to real performance cars like the C8 Corvette. The LC500 is for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a unique, beautifully-crafted grand tourer with intangible presence over raw performance metrics.
