Join Ray Stevens, DriveChicago.com General Manager Mark Bilek and Chicago Auto Show Senior Marketing Director Jim OBrill as they review the 2024 Lexus LC, talk about the election's impact on the auto industry, and catch up with Jill Ciminillo to hear about her latest Rebelle Rally adventure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Somehow, the Lexus LC is in the back half of a decade in production. Debuting in 2016 at the Detroit auto show, the LC500 helped give something similar to the legendary Lexus LFA to the masses – well, the masses that could afford a spendy-but-more-affordable grand tourer. Powered by either a 5.0-liter V8 or a 3.5-liter V6-based hybrid system, the Lexus LC 500 can offer a growing exhaust note or the more demure world of a fuel-sipping hybrid grand tourer. In LC 500h hybrid trim, the 3.5-liter works with a CVT and electric motors to make 354 hp of total system output and, according to Lexus, only suffers a 0.3-second penalty in a sprint to 60 mph. For 2024, the team at Lexus overhauled the LC 500's interior and replaced the old touchpad-based media system with a more modern touchscreen-based media system.  On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Lexus LC 500h. Wren takes you on a guided tour of the '24 Lexus LC500h and highlights some of its new features. Later, Wren takes you along for a live drive review of this hybrid grand tourer. Adding to these segments, Wren chats with Autoweek's Patrick Carone about the Lexus LC 500, the changes, and where it sits in the greater world of luxury sports cars. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2024 Lexus LC 500h special.

Sitting in for Jill this week is Tom's friend, engineer and car guy David Piluski. Dave and Tom opened the show addressing a mistake Tom made—called out by Tom's mother—last week. Tom misidentified the longtime singer of the classic “See the U.S.A. in Your Chevrolet” ad/song as Doris Day, though as noted by his mom, the song was sung by Dinah Shore. Listen in to hear a clip of the song. Dave and Tom addressed a second error from last week, this one called out by listener Celio. Dave went on to share a story about how a rental Dodge Shadow Convertible—back in the early Nineties—suffered from so much body flex that the doors would not close on a gentle incline. Still in the first segment, Tom shared his impressions of the all-new—and surprisingly luxurious—Mazda CX-70 2-row midsize crossover. Tom also reviewed the exotic-looking Lexus LC 500 Convertible. Tom is baffled that the car does not sell better. Listen in for the full review. In the second segment, Dave and Tom are joined by comic, podcaster, and legendary Chicago radio host Steve Cochran. Steve talked about his podcast, and then shared stories about his first cars and learning to drive. Learn why Steve once gave away a car he owned at a radio-station promotional event. In the last segment Dave is subjected to Tom's “1983!” quiz. To wrap up the show, Dave shared news regarding a California bill (SB961) now before Governor Gavin Newsom, which would require cars to alert drivers when the speed limit was being exceeded by more than 10 mph. Dave also talked about his own podcast. 

SummaryIn this conversation, the hosts discuss their recent experiences and catch up with each other. Kevin shares his experience helping a friend clean out his house and garage, which included throwing away a large amount of junk. They also talk about motorcycles and the current state of the motorcycle industry. They discuss the popularity of cafe racer-style bikes and the lack of technological advancements in motorcycles compared to cars. The conversation touches on the decline in motorcycle ownership and the changing demographics of motorcycle riders. In this part of the conversation, the hosts discuss their go-to NATO straps for their watches. They mention different brands like Cheap NATO Straps, Crown and Buckle, and Blue Shark. They also talk about the comfort and versatility of NATO straps. The conversation then shifts to the topic of electric cars, specifically the Tesla Semi catching fire and the potential safety concerns of electric vehicles. They also mention the rumor of Toyota working on a new MR2 and the discontinuation of the Toyota Supra. The hosts express their excitement for the new MR2 and discuss the design and performance of the car. They also touch on the Lexus LC 500 and its lack of popularity despite its attractive design. The conversation ends with a suggestion for Toyota to create a dedicated sports car segment under the TRD brand. In this conversation, the hosts discuss various car models and modifications. They talk about the Toyota GR 86 and its price point compared to other sports cars. They also mention the Acura Integra race version and the BMW M5 wagon. The hosts share their thoughts on front-wheel drive vehicles and the weight of cars. They discuss their own car modifications and future plans. The conversation ends with a whiskey recommendation.

Jill and Tom opened the show noting that Chinese electric-car maker BYD is exploring developing a retail network in Canada. Tom explained why the Canadian market would be friendlier to Chinese imports than the U.S. The hosts went on to discuss recent U.S.-market sales growth for Mazda. The Japanese maker had recently made public it's intention to take the Mazda brand upmarket, and early sales of its CX-50 and CX-90 models suggest that the project is successful. Tom also shared some fun data on the cities in which the Car stuff Podcast is most popular. (Hint: City number five isn't in the U.S.) Jill shared her take of the freshened 2025 Ford Explorer, the maker's popular midsize 3-row crossover. Jill shared her drive impressions, plus explained why the updated SUV is offered in fewer trim levels for 2025. In the second segment, Jill and Tom are joined by Ford Heritage Brand Manager Ted Ryan. Ted shared the history of Ford's Chicago Assembly plant. The historic factory turned 100 years old this year, and is steeped in brand history. Listen in for a list of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built at the plant. In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom's “Was it a Ford?” quiz. Tom also briefly shared his impressions of the Lexus LC 500, and Nissan Z Nismo. All Business. No Boundaries. The DHL Supply Chain Podcast Welcome to All Business.

Get ready to embark on a journey that marries opulence with horsepower as Mr. Marrs gives us an exclusive tour of the 2024 Lexus LC 500 Coupe. Fasten your seatbelts and prepare to be dazzled by the ultrasonic blue mica that's setting the streets ablaze with its vibrancy. We're talking about a car that's not just a feast for the eyes but also an auditory delight, thanks to the Mark Levinson premium audio system that Mr. Marrs can't stop raving about. And let's not forget the heart of this beast – a 5.0-liter V8 engine that doesn't just purr, it roars with 471 horsepower. But is this beauty more than just a show car? We put that to the test and discuss everything from the striking triple beam headlamps to the question on everyone's lips: does the speed-activated rear wing really offer the performance boost it promises or is it just another pretty piece?As Mr. Marrs takes the wheel, we get the skinny on what it's like to command such power and style, and yes, we even tackle the practicalities – or should we say, the lack thereof. Where in the world do you put your iPhone in such a sumptuous leather interior that seems to have overlooked storage solutions? Despite that, we uncover the little joys, like the seamless integration with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Alexa, all available at your fingertips on the 12.3-inch Lexus interface screen. Mr. Marrs doesn't hold back, sharing his take on the mileage after a 343.2-mile ride, and whether or not the EPA's promises hold up in the real world. So, join us as we cruise through the ins and outs of what makes the LC 500 a luxury driver.Lupe Tortilla, sponsor Tailpipes & Tacos Lupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas, is host to the quarterly Saturday morning cruise-in!Sponsored by Gulf Coast Auto Shield Paint protection and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Our two test vehicles this week couldn't be more different. The 2024 Honda Passport TrailSport is the brand's latest effort to cash in on the current off-road craze that continues to sweep the nation. With all-terrain tires, a trick torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system and some appearance mods, the Passport TrailSport isn't just fun to say; it is also fun to drive. But will it do the job off-road? That is a question we raise in this episode of America on the Road. Co-Host Chris Teague had the opportunity to test the TrailSport in some of the wettest weather ever to hit the state of Maine. Was the Honda off-roader up to the challenge? He'll have the answer to that and more details as well. On the other side of the automotive coin is the 2024 Lexus LC 500 Convertible. It is hard to imagine a more on-road-oriented vehicle than this six-figure specialty car from Toyota's luxury brand. In its tech and driver assistance features, the LC 500 ragtop is as new as tomorrow, but under the hood, its 5.0-liter normally aspirated V8 engine is a definite throwback. Happily, we like throwbacks, especially when they offer more than 400 horsepower. The overall result is a car that is both fun to drive and fun to be seen in. Host Jack Nerad will tell you more about his week with the car in the road test segment. In the news this week, official word has come in that an iconic performance vehicle is going to come to market as a battery electric in 2026. We'll tell you the model and give you more details in this episode. As we have reported in the past several weeks, EVs are piling up on dealers' lots and used EV values are plummeting. We'll tell you why this is happening and what it means to you, even if you don't plan to buy an electric car. While many carmakers are still touting a battery-electric future, Hyundai is about to announce a giant new initiative too create a hydrogen ecosystem. We'll have details and our reactions a bit later. This week, our special guest is Sam Fiorani, vice president of global vehicle forecasting at AutoForecast Solutions. Fiorani is a much-quoted expert on the world's automotive industry from the inside, and he'll give us his perspective on 2023 and on what we can expect in 2024. All that and more are coming up in this episode of America on the Road. America on the Road is brought to you by Driving Today.com, Mercury Insurance, YourTestDriver.com, and EMLandsea.com , the publisher of Nerad's latest book, Dance in the Dark, which is available HERE on Amazon.com

The world of personal luxury coupes exploded in the 1950s and 1960s. Land yachts like the Buick Riviera and the Continental MkII and, to a certain extent, the Jensen Interceptor. While the idea of personal luxury has effectively died, its spirit lives on in the wild Lexus LC. The aptly named Luxury Coupe exists between the world of brutal, luxury sports coupes and hyper-luxe grand tourers. This Lexus might not be as track hungry as, say, a Porsche 911, but it makes up for its lack of track performance with a hefty dose of luxury appointments on the interior and wild, striking design on the outside. While this Lexus is available with a naturally 5.0-liter V8, the hybrid variant replaces the screaming exhaust note with a fuel-efficient 3.5-liter V6 and electric motors. This hybrid might not be as potent as the V8, but its combined 354 hp is more than enough to hustle this 4,200-pound coupe to highway speeds. On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2022 Lexus LC 500h to put it through its paces. Wren walks you around the LC 500 to highlight its styling and features before giving you a guided tour of its wild interior. Wren also takes you along for a live drive review. Wren also chats with Autoweek's Patrick Carone about this Lexus, where it stands in the market and what kind of competition it faces. Closing the show, the two break down what makes this car special.

During this episode, the 2022 Lexus LC 500 Coupe is reviewed; we discuss why billions of dollars will not be enough to get autonomous cars on the road; and finally ask the question: is the electrical grid ready for the future? 

The automaker says, "Experience Amazing" and the Lexus LC 500 Coupe is all that and more.  I spent a week with the amazing head turner - come along for the ride and experience luxury with me! 

En esta emisión de Autos y más, platicamos del Día Mundial de la Adopción. Recordamos el caso de Pablo Lyle. Lexus, LC, vuelve a motorizar a Black Panther muy a su estilo, los fans podrán disfrutar de la cinta el próximo 11 de noviembre.

Un nuevo formato llega a AutoFM con estas audio pruebas donde os contamos lo más interesante de los coches que pasan por la redacción del programa. Y arrancamos con el espectacular Lexus LC 500 una bestia con motor V8 atmosférico de 477 CV. Un modelo cuyas increíbles formas no difieren mucho de las presentadas en el concept car LF-LC que conocimos en el Salón de Detroit de 2012. Hablamos de un modelo cargado hasta arriba de tecnología y que se fabrica en Motomachi. Hemos querido empezar por este modelo porque se trata de un coche exclusivo que en España sólo podrán disfrutar 20 afortunados. O seguramente menos porque esas son las unidades que llegarán sumando las dos carrocerías, cabrio y coupe. Por otra parte se trata de un modelo que está abalado por el propio CEO del Grupo Toyota, Akio Toyoda y que se enmarca en esa estrategia suya por la que los coches de Toyota y Lexus tienen que ser pasionales y divertidos de conducir. La mecánica de este Lexus LC 500 es sin duda uno de los puntos más destacados. Por prestaciones, por concepto y por el sonido tan sugerente que llega al habitáculo. Hablamos de un cabrio con motor V8 5.0 litros atmosférico desarrollado en su día para el Lexus IS F por Yamaha. Una mecánica casi de competición que no en vano se puede encontrar en las Toyota Hilux de rally raid que hemos visto en carreras como el Dakar. Concretamente este motor tiene una cilindrada de 4.969 cc, con culata de cuatro árboles de levas en cabeza y 32 válvulas. Además ofrece un sistema VVT-i de distribución y alzada de válvulas variable en continuo. Con todo ello y con una modificación de la admisión y del escape, el propulsor ofrece 477 caballos de potencia a 7.100 rpm y entrega 540 Nm a 4.800 rpm. Todos los LC 500 van asociados a un cambio automático de 10 marchas. Aunque es un coche que pesa casi dos toneladas su comportamiento es realmente deportivo y satisfactorio. Si bien es cierto que el tacto de frenos y dirección es más filtrado y burgués de lo que de un deportivo se espera. Por eso con el Lexus LC 500 estamos hablando más de un GT dispuesto a luchar contra un Mercedes SL 500 o un Maserati Gran Turismo que de un deportivo que ponga en aprietos a un Porsche 911 en una carretera de montaña. Sus números: acelera de 0 a 100 km/h en 4,7 segundos y cubre los 1.000 metros en 24 segundos. Mientras que su velocidad máxima es de 270 km/h (limitada electrónicamente). El PVP con impuestos asciende a 155.000 euros.

In this week's Thrill of Driving podcast we cover two very interesting topics. The Indian automotive industry is facing its worst ever slowdown in two decades. Why is it happening? What measures should the government take to tackle this? Ed gives his opinion and we hope that the industry recovers soon. Moving on, ed drove one hell of a good looking car in Japan this week. The Lexus LC 500h is one of the most striking luxury coupes out there. How has the Japenese marque managed to create a design like this is something that needs telling. It also sports a very complicated 10-speed gearbox which uses a CVT and a torque convertor in conjunction. How does this exactly work? Is the car coming to India? We have it all answered for you in the podcast.

This week we have Farid Kanji from Farid's Auto Centre joining us to talk about extended warranties. We talk about whether or not you should consider purchasing an extended warranty plan as part of your car purchase. We go through the different type of warranty plans that exist and what to watch out for when evaluating the different options. If you have any uncertainty about extended warranties, this is the epsiode for you. We also share our thoughts on the new vehicle test drive of the week, the 2020 Lexus LC 500.

The 2018 Lexus LC 500 is arguably the most attractive car made in the past several years. It turns heads in parking lots and gets stared at on the open road. Strangers point at it and give a thumb's up. The new Lexus belongs on the list of the 100 most attractive cars ever made. It would be among the few modern-day vehicles on the subjective selections automotive publications publish about every 10 years. The stunning new 2018 Lexus LC 500. Image © Bruce Aldrich/2018 Bruce Aldrich, co-host of The Weekly Driver Podcast, and I shared driving duties in the new Lexus from Sacramento to the Delta hamlet of Courtland and back last week. We were on assignment at Hemly Cider, the craft cider maker. We discuss the new top-of-the-line Lexus in Episode #29 of our podcast. Succinctly stated, the LC 500 is beautifully crafted inside and out. It's automobile design at its finest. Also in this episode: I write a weekly automotive column for Bay Area News Group in San Francisco region. I get e-mail letters from time to time and in recent weeks, a few emails were of particular interest. The new Lexus has run-flat tires. The timing was ideal because one reader of my column suggested I always include information of the type of tires included on new cars. The reader expressed her frustration with bad experiences with run-flat tires — their expense and lousy longevity. A recent column I wrote about the RV industry and its continuing problems was well-received and several readers e-mailed detailing their issues with sub-par manufacturing and difficulty getting satisfactory repairs.

The Motor Trend International Auto Show opens today at the Baltimore Convention Center and runs through Sunday. There are more than 500 cars at the show, and we wondered: What’s hot and what’s not?Midday host Tom Hall stopped by the car show last night and wandered around with Rory Cahill. Rory knows a lot about cars, and his expertise has attracted the attention of a lot of folks. On two occasions, General Motors has shipped a car to Rory’s house in Baltimore and asked him to try it out for a week, and give them his unvarnished opinion. In the biz, he’s known as “an influencer.”So Rory seemed like a good guy to talk to when we wanted to find out which cars are the coolest cars at this year’s auto show. There’s only one thing Rory doesn’t know about cars: how to drive them. Rory is 13, three years shy of getting his license. Here’s a film about Rory that debuted at the MD Film Festival last year, plus a couple of his reviews from the 2016 New York Auto Show about the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and the Lexus LC 500. Special thanks to director and engineer Luke Spicknall, who helped turn our trip to the Baltimore Auto Show into today’s Midday.Later in the show, Tom welcomes award-winning automotive journalist Tom Voelk to Studio A. They chat about what’s new in the car industry and what you might want to consider if you’re in the market for new wheels, and they take your calls and comments. Since 2004, Voelk, who is based in Seattle, has been making ----Driven Car Review---- videos. For several years the Driven videos were on The New York Times website, and Voelk still writes about automobiles as a contributor for The Times.You can catch all of his “Driven Car Review” videos on his Youtube channel. His podcast, which is also called “Driven Car Reviews,” was the first podcast to win an Emmy Award. Voelk has a background in television and has won 20 Emmys in all. He is a contributor to the NBC News Channel, the Seattle Times and other media outlets.

Une surprise attendait les journalistes au Salon de Detroit en 2012 : un superbe prototype qui trônait dans le kiosque Lexus, un coupé sport aux lignes spectaculaires, la LC-LF. Le chroniqueur automobile Philippe Laguë y était et s’en rappelle très bien car le prototype en question lui avait décroché la mâchoire, ce qui n’arrive pas souvent avec une voiture japonaise - encore moins dans l’univers Toyota! Cet article Essai routier : Lexus LC 500 (podcast 40) est apparu en premier sur Philippe Laguë.

The Lexus LC 500 is one of the best-looking and best-sounding luxury coupes on the market, but how does it hold up on the cold streets of Montreal? And who, exactly, would choose its 500h hybrid showroom-mate over the standard 500's V8 thunder? Benjamin drives them back-to-back to answer that question. Sami, on the other hand, spends a week driving not one, but four compact SUVs: the Volkswagen Tiguan, the Honda CR-V, the Nissan Rogue, and the Chevrolet Equinox, to see which one comes out on top. Wrapping things up, the pair discuss the Toyota Prius Prime plug-in hybrid, and specifically, how to devise a system that lets everyone around you know just how efficient you're driving. Spoiler alert: it involves the birth of a brand-new lifeform.

This week we farewell car manufacturing from Australia as Holden shuts down, plus we talk about the Voice assistants taking over our homes and just if there's any real need for them.  The boys are fat, and need to lose weight, so the show kicks off a Fitbit challenge, Bowen's driving the stunning Lexus LC 500 V8 and we talk about the hype that is Tesla and in a segment unlikely to make the second episode we talk about what's up in the coming week!  Mixed in with some fun, some laughs and some outright controversy - this is The EFTM Podcast

This week we have Terry O'Keefe from OMVIC joining us to discuss consumer rights when purchasing a used car. We talk about the role of OMVIC and how they help consumers. We dicuss ways to protect yourself when purchasing a used car, such as the use of conditions in the purchase agreement. We also talk about dealer licensing, and the dangers of buying a car from an unlicensed dealer (curbsiders). We also review the 2018 Lexus LC500 and LC500h. 

This episode is about Lexus cars. Specifically the Lexus LC 500 and it’s hybrid version. Matt Eugenio spent a week with the full blooded LC500 and Christian Moe lived with the hybrid version for a week. So I got them together to discuss and contrast the two versions of the Lexus flagship.Of course the conversation eventually veers off course. We talk about the European Gumball rally, Corvette drivers that only drive at the weekend in good weather. We then take listener questions including one about drifting french cars.    Referances: Chris Harris’s press car he bought: http://www.carscoops.com/2015/08/chris-harris-just-sold-his-audi-s4-for.html

Wherein we complain about everything related to the Campagna Motors T-Rex, and how it's neither a car nor a bike. It's absurd, but you'll have to listen in to find out why. We also drive the sublime new Lexus LC 500 and two very similar yet different Dodge Challengers, both with V8 engines and manual transmissions. Chad drives a Volkswagen e-Golf and a Yukon Denali, while Louis takes a 2018 Subaru Forester XT Limited away for a cottage weekend.
