Looks – Don’t get me started on this one. I tend to be someone that enjoys being a wall flower and not front and center on the stage. This car has definitely brought more attention to us than we feel comfortable with.
Great write up! Very informative.
What color do you have (that's attracting all this attention)? With regular roof, carbon fiber roof or moon roof?

Actually I have the most boring color. White, but I do have the carbon fiber roof and performance package. So the spoiler does draw some extra glances.
I really love the interior and the exterior of LC500, I have currently LX570 and I travel at least 550 miles long trips each way twice a year, Vegas to San Francisco.
Is this car comfortable in long drives? say 10 hours or so, or I will have aches and back pain. LX570 is perfect in long distance travel but I want a comfortable sports car at this time. I am 61 years old.

I find it comfortable but the longest drive I have taken has been 4ish hours. I do feel that these are some of the best seats I have sat in, in a car.
I drove the car for a few miles and was not that impressed. I really wanted to love it but it felt slow and a little too soft, at least compared to my SL 63 AMG. I am waiting for the F model to appear and see what they can do to add some grunt and tighten up the response. I am a huge Lexus fan so I have faith.

(sighs) Comparing a twin turbo V8 to a N/A V8 is apples to oranges. When the SL63 is in the shop with a leaking oil pan and the electrical gremlins start taking effect after the first 30K miles, the LC500 will still be crushing around basking in all the glory because.....

In another thread someone was hypothesizing that the spoiler from the performance package is causing noise/rattling. Maybe that's the source of your rattle?

...well... it's a Toyota.
Nah, no need for an LC when he already has the LFA
I got my LC500h since the end of december 2018, I love the car and agree with missedapex review.
I hadn't rattling noise but I had issue with driver seat electronics, it wasn't keeping memory and wasn't slideing frontward when bending the back of the seat.

I have a performance package myself and in 7,000 miles of ownership have not had any rattling from the active spoiler. It makes a slight vibrating sound when raising and a minor thumping sound when it deactivates and lowers back down. It's funny reading these comments about all these very frivolous complaints about the LC. God forbid any of you drive a real race car it would drive you all crazy with all the noises those things make. LOL
