After reading all the reviews I pulled the trigger on a 2021 Atomic Silver and Red Vert. So far I love it, coming out of a Maserati Grandturismo Sport Convertible which I consider one of the best (albeit dated) all time GT cars my bar was high. One common complaint in the GTS and the LC is their infotainment systems. And while the infotainment system in my GTS was truly 2007 tech and loath worthy I don't find the systems in the LC 500 that bad. The reviews are universally brutal on this point. The LC 500 has Car play , voice activated NAV and Climate Concierge which works so incredibly well I wonder way anyone would ever touch the climate controls other that to change the temp which can easily be done with buttons on the center stack. Of course I would like a touch screen but don't see a way this works with the current dash design that I would not want compromise the design for touch. When i do have to go into the infotainment system which is rare I don't find the touch pad all that bad, certainly it doe not warrant the wholesale panning it is getting online. How do others feel? Maybe I am so use to having the truly awful system in the GTS that our system does not seem that bad to me

I have a 2021 also and don't find the infotainment system bad at all.. The way the reviewers completely trash it is over the top in my opinion. Sometimes they all join on the bandwagon.
Infotainment system does blow. Lexus can’t even get random play to work. Plays the same tracks in the same sequence every time the vehicle is started. Just one of the reasons I sold the LC.
Another big issue was that the split screen changes when you approach an interchange on the freeway, and doesn’t change back. Annoying beyond belief.

Well it looks like you have upgraded quite a bit, how is the infotainment in the Lambo's not that it matters when everything is a blur. my guess with the Audi connection they are pretty good.
yes door panels and the console are a darker cooler than the seat, looks good
Interesting, it's like they kept the prior rioja red for the center/doors and the new circuit red only for the seats.

It’s coming on now automatically.
Still shows OFF in the settings.
turn it ON, then OFF…and it stays off til the next time I turn the car on.
Yup, this has happened on mine too, but only once, not every time. Definitely a bug.

first world problems. actually, just use android auto or apple car play, and you have lots of choices how to drive your music... piece of cake.
The reason they ***** about the infotainment system is because there isn't much to complain about with this car so they have to come up with SOMETHING. Infotainment is just an easy target.
