Transcripts

I've bought the perfect family car.

Don't let the sports look of this one scare you off. In fact, it's a regular civilian car, perfect for families.

I'm not a good car reviewer. I'll be checking my phone for some info.

I needed a visually sports car, but the one that I could drive to work every day.

It's almost impossible with a normal sports car, because they're so low.

We'll perform an iPhone Test. The iPhone is 15 cm / 6 inches high. There's plenty of room.

But here, if you look at it from the side, this is the lowest place. It's right here. It's about 14 cm / 5.5 inches.

This car is very tall, it's 14 cm / 5.5 inches. It's, I don't know, like a normal sedan.

I had a Mazda 3, it had 12 cm / 4.7 of ground clearance. I was hitting the bottom on everything, but I could drive it.

Here in the parking lot I spotted a Ferrari, don't know which one it is.

Let's do iPhone Test on a Ferrari.

Well, it doesn't fit in here. Let's see how much ground clearance it's got.

110 millimeters / 4 inches. This one's 14 cm / 5.5 inches.

But these 14 cm look as low as possible, like it's a super low car.

And the funny thing is, when you turn in a low car,

the sill hits the ground. The sills are intentionally raised.

You see, there's these lines here. And those same lines create this super sports silhouette.

Because if you look at this side, there's about 40 cm /16 inches rear wing extension.

It's a huge extension, like Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini have,

like all sports cars do. And look at that ass.

I can't say butt, it's an ass. Look how big it is.

It's like it's going to come right out of the car.

And it's kind of funny looking when I'm changing lanes. People are interested to see what kind of car it is

because it's a very rare car. And everybody usually sees only this ass when I'm changing lanes.

And the funny thing is, visually, it looks like a sports car, but it's made to be driven on the road.

This ass, for example, is very high, it goes on almost all the curbs.

And plus it can go up when you put it in reverse.

It lifts the rear axle. Op, it's up. I don't know how much.

There's a lot of room. The iPhone fits easily. Oh, my God, this is so cool!

Man, we've got a lot of stuff in the trunk now. It's huge, actually.

For a car like this, it is a massive trunk.

I've seen that not all car reviewers have learned how to open it. There's a button here - there it is, the little one.

But it doesn't go up - that's a flaw. You have to open that big door yourself.

There's a spoiler on top, and it's really heavy.

Look how long the hood is! I don't know - I could lie down and sleep on it.

And there's a 5-liter V8 in there.

The wheels - it's a different story.

I don't know, I've just fallen in love with these wheels. 21 inch rims are just incredible.

You can't surprise anyone with the handles any more.

They're built in, the only thing you have to do is open them. Just like this, they're open.

And the car closes like this.

Look, keyless entry.

The funny thing is, I've got the key right here.

What would a good car key look like? Like this.

Not like a Tesla's one, where you have to take it out and put it here.

It's got to fit in the card holder. It fits in the card holder and that's it, I don't have any more keys. I only have the wallet.

They could design it to open once you're close.

That could have been done, but they didn't.

The light brown interior is incredible.

It's cold now, we have to wear jackets.

While we were doing the review, winter came.

But there is a little problem - I can't reach the button, so I have this thing.

It's very convenient, I'll tell you, it comes in handy.

Seems that it's been cooked.

I've been dreaming...

Oh, my glasses are fogging up.

This is delicious!

I've been dreaming about a sports car since I was a kid.

I had the posters that everyone else had, I collected wrappers. I thought I'd grow up, become rich and buy a sports car.

I'd go to work in a sports car: in a Ferrari or a Lamborghini.

And when I went to Bologna, where Ferrari is assembled, where you could drive a Ferrari,

I didn't understand the fun of it.

I was uncomfortable, really uncomfortable in this car. Then I thought, well, maybe I'm just poor.

Maybe I was scared to crash the car or something. I mean, I didn't understand why.

Then I got a Jaguar F-Type. It's a low car.

I drove it for a week and suffered and suffered. It was insane. I was struggling.

It's very low, it's very wide, there's no cameras.

When I was trying to pull out of a parking lot or pull into a parking lot,

I had this constant fear that I was going to crush the sill, because it's really wide and super low.

When you go over speed bumps, it scrapes the sills. You have to always go over them slowly and quietly.

Then in Dubai, I thought, well, in Dubai, I've got to get a Lamborghini. I rented a Lamborghini and I was shocked.

It is such a useless car! You sit there like in a go-kart, like in a Formula 1 car.

You can't see anything. There's this gap in front of you. You had to lift it before every speed bump.

I realized that a sports car is not meant for the city. You can't use it every day.

You can't drive it daily, it's impossible.

Vova is standing there, drooling.

And then I was invited by Lexus to go to Baikal. We drove RX on Baikal, on the ice. It was really cool.

And one of the adventures there was a Lexus LC 500. And they were drifting on the ice.

I thought: What a cool car! Why didn't I know about it before?

It's such a rare car that nobody knows about it.

That's why I'm making this video. Maybe you've been looking for a car but haven't found the right one yet.

I drove it and I said: Let me test drive it for a couple weeks.

I drove it and I realized I don't want to go back to my SUV.

I want to drive this car every day.

I don't want to drive any other car for a second. And that's how I fell in love with it.

When every detail was designed for this very important moment.

Boca Room - premium furniture for living.

Let's vote, I can't decide whether to keep the brown color or make it yellow.

Let's do it this way: brown and yellow. Which one is better?

The interior, of course, is incredible.

It feels like you're sitting in a Hermes handbag. It's all leather. I don't know, I think it's too much, to be honest.

Leather is everywhere. Look at these door cards, they're unbelievable.

There's the alcantara panel. There's the handle.

The handles usually have some sort of recess for them. But here it's just a handle.

This is in the best tradition of the race-prepped cars.

The engine is a different story. That's a whole different story.

The Japanese have gone to great lengths to make it sound amazing.

They had special sound designers working on it.

But the problem is that the sound is audible only on the outside. But inside you don't hear anything.

You can hear something only the moment you start the engine. And then nothing.

Let me roll down the window.

So loud.

But inside you hear nothing.

When I first bought it, the first week, I felt like I was getting pressure in my ears, it was so quiet inside.

There's a lot of noise insulation, just an incredible amount.

It weighs 2 tons / / 4,400 pounds because of that.

Porsche 911 - I don't know, weighs 1.5 tons/ 3,300 pounds, max.

Ferrari weighs 1.3 or 1.4 tons / 2,800 pounds.

California weighs 1.5 tons / 3,300 pounds. This one weighs 2 tons / 4,400 pounds.

That's why the car is bulky and accelerates from 0 to a 100 km/h in five seconds.

They've done everything right.

They've made an electric dashboard here, a huge screen.

The climate control regulates with buttons, thank goodness!

I was sitting in the Audi Q8 and thinking: What's wrong with the world? To use touch screens, that's just rubbish.

Thank goodness they've left the real buttons here.

Let me tell you the story of this car.

Lexus has never had a sports car. And somewhere in the 2000s, they thought they should make a sports car.

They spent a billion dollars.

Back then it was a huge amount of money. Well, and now too.

They built a new plant, made the Lexus LFA.

It's a great sports car, ten-cylinder, with a sound like a Formula-1 car.

But they only made 500 of them.

That's it. And the whole billion-dollar plant closed. They made 500 cars, and that's it, there's nothing left to make.

So they booted up the production of a new car, and this is it, this is the LC 500.

It's not actually Lexus, because it's not made in a Lexus plant.

It's not made in a Toyota plant either. They have their own plant.

For almost 10 years, they have been producing just one car, this one car.

It's ideologically nothing like a Lexus. It's different.

It's a compilation of all the best things you could cram into a car.

They were like: Bam, bam, this is going to be a great car. Overall, it is.

There are a couple of flaws that I don't like.

To open a storage console two actions are required. First, press the button, move it, then you push the button, but not the same one, there is another one inside.

We used to have one button for it.

You lift it up and here's the storage console. Two actions are required.

You can't drive with it open, because it's uncomfortable.

Look. It's so inconvenient. It's stupid. I don't know why they've done it like this.

They could have made a regular storage console, regular cup holders.

Look at the rear camera. I think my Nokia 6300 with 0.3 megapixels made better videos.

The picture is awful.

There is only rear camera; no 360 degrees, not even a front camera.

This is the ultimate package. I got everything.

It's even got a carbon fiber roof, but no front camera.

There's another problem, and it's the biggest problem with this car.

Let me show you. It's these seats. Look how high these seats are.

I've already made a crease. You can see it. Because I'm always pressing against it.

My leg even goes numb. I'm sitting and pressing against it.

Japanese are rather small and they have tailored the seats for themselves. Overall they're okay for me, for my build.

I'm 180 meters / 5'10. I weigh 78 kilograms / 170 pounds.

If you're a little bit bigger than me, that's it, you won't fit. I just fit in the car.

If I wear a thick jacket, when winter comes, I'm going to drive in a thick jacket, it's going to be a problem. It's going to be a huge problem.

I've covered the flaws. The biggest one is the seat.

They could have made it wider. This is a family car.

Let's see how to get into the back seat.

In most sports cars you can't use the back seat.

Their back seat is called "the back storage space".

A space for your bag. Mid-engined cars don't have any room there at all.

This is the first time I'm sitting in the back seat. There's some room.

Usually the problem is that all these seats are kind of squeezing you.

The seats feel like those in a low-cost carrier airplane. But this is quite good.

I can fit in here given my height. Let's put Vova up front and see if we can fit in here.

One more thing, look! It rests against my leg.

That's the maximum space you can have.

Vova, join me.

-Wow. -It's okay. There's still some room.

He's still got some room in front of him.

He can move the seat forward.

And I have room to... Move forward until your knees are at a 90-degree angle.

That's really comfortable. I could probably stay here for an hour. I don't feel cramped.

What is that, by the way? No way, you can hang something here.

Sitting here is pretty comfortable. It's an isofix seat.

Take a look, this is the isofix mount.

You can easily fit an isofix seat in here. The kid can sit, wave their legs and look up.

It's fun.

A real test on the family car. Michelle, you're in the shot.

Come on, Michelle, let's go.

The first thing we need to do is to put the stroller in the trunk.

I love this stroller, it folds up in one move.

Wow, there's still some room. Even a suitcase will fit.

If we place it like this, the suitcase and the carry-on will fit.

Come on, Michelle. It's your royal seat.

Let's go. Look, your seat.

Whoa. You're sitting up high.

Our seat is pretty big and high. We should probably get a smaller one.

We're gonna go for a ride, and then you're gonna sit behind the wheel. She likes to drive.

-She doesn't like these seats very much. -Hazards are there.

-Do you want to turn on the hazard lights? -Yes.

-Sure. -Whoa.

Are you alright? Do your your legs fit? All right, the legs fit.

Now it's Alena's turn.

Good.

-Does Michelle have a car? -Yes.

-What kind of car does Michelle have? -Mercedes.

-Wow. -What kind of car does daddy have?

-Lexus. -That's right.

-What about mom? -Kia.

Whose car do you like better, mom's or dad's?

-Mom's. -Good girl, high five.

-Are you going to film? -Yes. Everyone.

-Okay, film. -There's some kind of ceiling up there.

He's wearing a hat.

Sitting here is pretty comfortable.

The only thing is, you probably can't sit here.

The driver's seat is shifted back more. You can't just move it forward, you need room to drive.

You won't fit here.

Check out the lux class. It's carbon fiber covers.

The car weighs 2 tons / 4,400 pounds and they thought: Hm, we need to lighten the plastic covers, make them carbon fiber, so it'll be 20 grams / 0.7 ounces lighter.

The funny thing is, it's got a carbon fiber roof. You see, carbon fiber.

This configuration is expensive. It makes the car lighter. But by how much? A kilogram / 2 pounds?

Why do you need a carbon fiber roof, I don't know.

Let's take it for a drive, shall we? I remember driving a Lamborghini.

-It was a living hell. -You're rustling.

Maybe unfasten the seatbelt?

For those of you who'd say you should drive with the seatbelt on.

There's going to be a lot of comments saying you drove without the seatbelt, how could you.

There's a naturally aspirated engine. I'm against turbocharged engines, they're slow to react.

When you step on the throttle, it takes two seconds for the turbocharger to engage and start working.

It's not the case for this car. The engine is as responsive as an electric motor. Just a little bit of acceleration and ...

and off you go.

It goes straight away, no wait, it's incredible.

I hate turbocharged engines. The second flaw is that it does not accelerate as fast as a sports car.

People believe that if a sports car doesn't accelerate in 3.7 seconds, it's not really a sports car. It's true, it's not a sports car.

They say it's not fast. But I don't care about that at all.

If you're in no rush, you're just going somewhere and need to accelerate, it'll do it.

No turbocharged engine can do that. You press it and only two seconds later you accelerate.

But with this car, there is no 2-second delay.

No need to wait.

Maybe it's not the engine that's slow, but the fact that it's very heavy. 2 tons / 4,400 pounds is a lot for a sports car.

But it is very quiet.

I drove at 170 km/h (106mph) and I heard practically nothing.

That's amazing.

Try driving a Porsche 911 to the country house. Do it once and then you'll say, never again.

In this respect, it's a perfect car. It's what I've been looking for.

It looks like a sports car, but inside you feel like you're in a typical sedan.

But you just put your foot down and you're off.

It's got a very comfortable suspension, comfortable seats.

Except for the fact that they are quite narrow, not everyone will fit. That's exactly what I've been looking for.

This class doesn't exist. It's something between a Mercedes S-Class coupe and a Porsche 911.

It's like they've taken an S-Class coupe and a Porsche 911 and there you go... There's going to be a new class.

I don't know what this class is called, but I really like it.

It's a perfect comfortable family car.

It would be great if someone paid me to advertise it.

But I had to spend millions of rubles to purchase this car.
