2018 Lexus LC500 | Rolls-Royce Tampa Bay (January 2020)

Here’s a 2018 Lexus LC500 that I saw at Rolls-Royce Tampa Bay in January of 2020. The LC500 is a sports car that’s based on the Lexus LC-LF Concept from 2012. The production model was unveiled at the 2016 North American International Auto Show. Production started in March of 2017. The engine is a 5 liter V8 that produces 471 horsepower and 398 pound-feet. The transmission is a 10-speed automatic. This car does 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds and has a top speed of 168 mph. This car weighs 4,280 pounds since the body panels are aluminium and carbon fiber composite, and the chassis is unitary steel with composite sections.
