Does the LC live up to Lexus reputation for reliability?

Great cars! My LC500 is just over two years old. I have had no issues beyond oil changes. Breaks are good if broken in properly. On my last two I replaced the run flats on purchase and never had a flat in more than 7 years. I carry a plug in air compressor in my trunk even with the current run flats that I would have replaced if I did not lease the car. The 20 inch setup is probably a little smoother and then you may want to find the setting that changes the suspension settings. Great car

I've been running Tom's Racing Pads (Performer) on the front of my 2018 LC500 for a couple of weeks now - a couple of hundred miles. No more dust and quiet as a mouse (so far). I think they actually perform better than the stock high-friction pads. I know they're expensive ($428 delivered), but I paid more for this car than I paid for my first house, so that investment to get quiet almost dust-free pads wasn't an issue for me. I'm also running Tom's air filters, which are reported to add about 7 HP, and no issues with those either.
I am expecting the same top tier reliability that I got from the 2015 IS350 F-Sport that I traded in on the LC500.
PS: I did catch that pun!
