1. Head Turner
It is no secret that the 2018 Lexus LC500 is quite the looker. Between its exotic shell and the futuristic curves, this car can compete with the best, and sometimes it may even steal all of the eyes. The head-turning coupe has a low-stance, which complements the long hood and the smooth roof. The wide fenders along with the LED taillights give the LC500 a tremendously unique and exclusive look. In the front of the LC500 is Lexus' legendary grille, and behind that line are two LED projector headlights that give the entire car some serious presence. If looks are what you're after, the 2018 LC500 will always make you look.

2. Solid Heart
If you want a fun car, then you've found one. The 2018 Lexus LC500 has a heart of gold, but it is vicious nonetheless. The Super Car features a V8 5.0-liter quad-cam engine, which develops 471-horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque. Thanks to the multimode exhaust, this LC500 sounds as good as it looks. With the help of its 10-speed automatic transmission, this Lexus can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.8 seconds.

3. Flawless Brakes
The Lexus LC500 has brakes that make it safe to enjoy the fun engine. Behind the front wheels, there are two six-piston calipers, and behind the rear wheels, there are two four-piston calipers. Together, the brakes make for quick, smooth, and confident braking. The calipers clamp on vented discs that allow it to stay cool, even in the toughest of driving conditions. With brakes like these, you will feel confident getting to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds and stopping in less than half of that time.

4. Magnificent Interior
The exterior of the 2018 LC500 is not the only looker on this car, the interior is like something from another dimension. Although the engine is on the sportier side, the interior is as luxurious as it gets, thanks to its smooth dashboard lines that blend right into the door panels. The mixture of leather-wrapped parts along with the titanium-toned components makes for a fine looking cabin. To make this cabin even more unique, the driver and passenger door panels differ slightly, as the passenger gets an extra handle that allows them to hold on with both their hands. If you think you've been inside of nice cars, wait until you sit in this one and have your mind blown.

6. Super Car For Less
