A 2018 infrared with black and white interior and 13 miles on the odometer was recently sold for $126,500 at Mecum Kissimmee. They also charge 10% commission on the sale. Maybe this is a sign the LC could have some future collectibility?

 

why would anyone pay more than a new one?

 

Auction fever has a tendency for people to bid higher than is reasonable. People tend to think they 'win' at the auction when actually they spent the most anyone there at the time would spend for the item.

 

Could be for a good cause(?)

 

My main question here (if anyone could help me answer it is: when did Lexus ever release the IR LC500 with a WHITE and BLACK interior? Never seen that before, and maybe that's why (alongside the extreme low mileage) it sold for such a high price.....

 

Good point 1 of a kind, pulls a lot more $$ and they can take it home now. these will gain Higher price points for sure.

 

Looking at the auction website - 2018 Lexus LC500 | S256 | Kissimmee 2022 (mecum.com) - It appears that this interior is a non-factory custom one-off. I believe the original interior was black.

write up done last year

 

That custom interior looks really nice. It would’ve been cheaper to buy a brand new LC and get the interior done by a shop. I wish Infrared came with more interior color options.

 

What's nice about the interior IMHO, is the Alcantara in the seats and the doors is replaced with real leather Just like in the convertible.

 

That is a nice LC500.

 

Yeah but still.

 

Yup - that interior tho.....

 

I believe I read that the 'leather' on the door panels on the convertibles is not leather. doesn't bother me, just saying.
