The Lexus LC 500 is still one of the most stunning sports cars on the road. Lexus hasn’t really given it any big updates since it was released, but for the 2023 model year, the LC 500 and 500h models have received some suspension improvements.
The front and rear suspension settings have been optimized to “enhance ground contact feel, linear steering response, and steering effectiveness in the high cornering G range.” If you want more performance, the LC 500 sport package adds a Torsen limited-slip rear differential with Yamaha performance damper, performance brake pads, and Alcantara-trimmed seats. For 2023, the sport package with glass roof adds 21-inch forged alloy wheels with polish finish and Gloss Black accents.
