Default Cancelled my 2022 Lexus LC500

Cancelled my 2022 Atomic Silver with Red Interior.

Dealer called me to let me know that they just received a 2021 White with Tan vehicle. Manufacture date of 7/21, had 10km or 6 miles, so it was brand new.
So I decided to take it. I won't miss the Atomic Silver, as most of my cars and sports cars have always been white.

I took it out for a 20min spin, awesome! I understand why people love the exhaust and downshifts. Just amazing.

I pick it up tomorrow.

the exhaust and engine sounds were tuned by musical instrument makers Yamaha....just wait till you get er in a tunnel,
or canyon or valley where the sound can bounce back at you, at 5-6K revs in third gear....the music this car makes is unheard of !
and get the revs up higher, and you're treated to some awesome induction wail... have fun !

That's a great color combo also.
I think the tan top matches the caramel interior perfectly also

I see you're in Hawaii (?) so you describing the tunnels, canyons and valley I can picture perfectly!
We we're there last month and I tell my wife too bad we couldn't rent an LC through turo, or even a mustang GT when we we're cruising

What a wonderful drive. Omg the downshifts, omg the exhaust note. Omg, my daughters are totally in love with the car. So I went through half a tank at 27.6L / 100km which is about 8.5mpg.

Very few pictures on the net gives this car justice on its pure elegance and stance. It has presence and with those beautiful lines, especially when you just stand there and stare at it. My god its such a beautiful piece of art. Some old guy (of course), walked by and just said that is a beautiful car. I see so many people just staring at it as they walk by. I hope they really enjoy looking at the car as much as I do, it's to bad it's not popular, but I also think that's the saving grace, rarity has beauty.

Damn door is to heavy. It can literally lose 15lbs

Everyone touts the deep roar of the exhaust when you step on the gas. But when I drive I like it quiet most of the time, especially on a long ride. Does the LC have a quiet mode? If so, is it as quiet as a stock IS350?
