so i'm not really interested in having multiple cars. the lc500 is pretty fabulous but i have a feeling if i had one i'd probably feel constrained by the lack of space at some point, and perhaps the low height getting in and out might get old?

anyone got some comments on this? thanks.

 

The LC 500 Convertible will be my only vehicle once mine arrives at the end of October.

 

This is just a personal preference but I wouldn't like having the LC500 as my only car simply because of snow, etc. I have a 2018 RX350 for inclement weather.

​​​I'm hoping Lexus will redesign the LX. For me, the perfect combo would be LC and LX in the garage.

 

i use my 2019 as my only car. you're right, its a little tight for target trawling
but i have a 2013 tacoma for stuff you need a pick up for, so tight is alright !
i'm 70 yrs old, and so far loose enough to keep slidin' in and out...
and its such an unbelievable joy to drive

 

I also have a Silverado as a beater and for hauling stuff.

Note - I use seat memory position three for exit and entry on the LC.

Not as an only car, barely useful as a second car. I ended up getting rid of my LC (well soon to be rid of) while I await delivery of its replacement (2021 Urus). The LC was only slightly more practical than my Huracan. But choosing which one to get rid
of wasn't a difficult choice. My biggest issue was that having two 2-door vehicles was becoming a PITA. This will be the first time in 20+ years I have not had a Lexus in my garage.

 

our moderators have all kinds of vehicles, but i believe all have or have had lexus vehicles at one time or another. i have had two. i do not have one right now as where i live now my nearest dealer is probably 90mi. away plus i haven't really been smitten enough with anything in recent years to get one. despite a few weaknesses (e.g., lack of surround view camera, odd infotainment system and controller pad) i'm interested in an LC500 because it's gorgeous and i think V8's are on their way out, and we all know Lexus makes one of the best.

 

I used an LC as my only car for 3 years without issue. Now have a Taycan. Only rented an SUV truck when there was truly a need. Go for it.

 

I have two kids @ home and it was my only car for 8 months.

it replaced a Chevy SS.

We managed. kids were ok in the back, mpg was better than prior vehicle.
Sams run did end up in the back seats too.

would i do it again, sure. wasnt a big deal.

ppp

 

I find my GS F to be a far more practical vehicle. I put all season tires on it and use it as my everyday vehicle. A little easier to get in and out of. Trunk holds plenty for going to the store. Good visibility. Now the LC is fine for driving everyday...more comfortable and roomy than my 718 GTS I traded for it. It just doesn't hold much for shopping.

 

much easier if you live in Arizona. We only get rain a few days per year. Haha. No snow!

 

^^^^Depends on where in Arizona There is snow in Flagstaff, Mt. Lemon, Grand Canyon to name a few. I've seen very limited snowfall in Tucson and measurable snow in Sierra Vista. Where I currently live - No Snow. Would I own an LC if I lived in Snow Country, probably. But I would store the car in the winter.

i live in phx.

 

My LC is my only car but I'm definitely looking to get something that I can haul stuff in (like a crossover). I just don't like driving my LC everywhere. I prefer keeping the mileage low, and take it out every now and again.
