Question Wish List for MY23

What would be your top 5 reasonable* things you'd like to see for MY23?

Here's mine:
  1. 360 view
  2. A modest power boost
  3. Massaging seats
  4. Non run flat tire option that comes with Michelin Pilot S4's
  5. Bring back liquid platinum
* Meaning things that can be added to '23 production relatively easily

1. 360 Camera

2. More HP. Someone in another thread mentioned next year that they might swap out the V8 for a V6 twin turbo. I don't know how accurate that is but would hate to lose that exhaust note.

3. The rims from the upcoming inspiration series. They look really nice.

4. Updated infotainment system. I'm not sure how feasible it would be to have touch screen with the screen as far back as it is but some type of update would be nice.

5. Bespoke like options every year going forward. More exterior and interior color options, blacking out the chrome etc.

1. 360 view.
3. Massaging seats.

Others:
A. More improved "crispy" camera quality. The current reverse camera quality I saw and read, oh.... looks like my father's old car 20 years ago. Or just update the rear view mirror as camera at reverse which is a common feature now.

B. An appropriately improved sound system that will deserve ML name. The one I experienced is too terrible.

C. More interior color options.

D. Full leather seats with Dynamic pkg.

I can’t see a twin turbo v6 as the engines available are downgrades.

If the twin turbo v8 is ever going to see the light of day this is the car and this is the time.

I would like to see a dash touchscreen update because that would mean they’re committed to keeping the car around.

360 view and dedicated forward camera for parking

More interesting colours.

If they go TT6 I’m sure it would be a much more robust and powerful version of what’s in the new LS and GX 600’s. Don’t rule out the goodness of TT6’s, I’ve had a few in P cars and there’s little not to like, plus if it helps keep the LC alive especially on a fully updated version it’s most certainly better than the alternative.

Agree 100% about the T/S and I should have included it on my list.

I'm in a strange position as a future buyer of this car. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on a coupe, but I'm holding out for a bit to see if there are any significant improvements in the next year or so.

This is a must. It is the main gripe of every Lexus review for the past ~8-10 years.

And add:
More cup holders. I just don't know where.

I'll now add something: Better downshifting. Thanks to 355F1 and breplica for making this known, as the only way it will be addressed is when Lexus gets enough complaints.

Be able to order one to your liking.
The bespoke is a joke. Why bother advertise when you don’t intent to accept orders. To this date, no dealer has been able to accept the bespoke order.

Ordered my bespoke, no problem at all. Except perhaps the 5.5 month wait for it arrive which was 20 May. My car is in the above post.
