Our quick take

Lexus LC500 Convertible - 5.0 / 5

A visual symphony

Superior comfort

A beast on the road

Tech improvements and shortcomings

To recap

Lexus’ soft-top feels special both inside and out. Hit the road with the sunshine on your neck, the wind in your hair, and the sound of that naturally aspirated 5-litre V8 engine and there’s really nothing else quite like it. Plus it finally has a tech setup that’s usable thanks to Android Auto / Apple CarPlay. It could well be the last of a dying breed given that engine - but if that’s the case then it’s all the more reason to savour it.
