    Jack saying negative things about this car while Mark revving the V8 to 11,000 rpm trying to surpass his voice has to be the funniest thing I've seen all week lol
  • @RideTheTrack
    Mark's shit-eating grin while caning the V8 to drown Jack's negative points out is the kind of content I came here for
  • @bryanf268
    10:03 This smile confirmed what I thought. Brilliant move by Mark drowning out Jack's negative comments with sound of that beautiful engine revving to high heaven!
  • @rmp5s
    The fact that a car that looks like that SOUNDS like that is absolutely hilarious...what a weird, special, glorious car.
  • @Zerobar78.
    That engine noise is worth the sticker price alone!! Not to mention those interiors are exquisite!
  • @ADUSN
    Every time I see an LC500 it makes me happy. A truly soulful car
  • @davidmathes8011
    Sorry guys, I own the 2021 version of this and drive it just like that all the time. No 75 year grandmother here. Sport plus, in manual mode near the redline. Sounds incredible and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.
  • @StefanGoian
    I like how the negative comments, rigidity issues, twisting, etc were drowned out by high revs. That’s top content right there 😂
  • @awanderer4973
    That's not a car...that's a work of art! Beautiful inside!
  • @hansgruber4578
    There's a yellow LC500 coupe that parks on my street every so often, what a special car it is
  • I am an audiophile and a car enthusiast x Porsche mechanic, with audio not everything that measures well sounds fantastic! Like the LC500 it doesn’t handle like a Porsche, but it has all the ingredients to make you feel special and put a fixed smile on your face, as you can see on this video of Marks fixed smile, driving the LC! This car is unique, and should not be compared to boy racer toyCorvette. Anyone interested in a LC should look up the Takumi engineering that build these cars, they are built like German cars were built 30 years ago, with passion and integrity. Get real, the LC is a grand tourer with sole, not a race car that may never see a race track. The LC is like a premium Valve Amplifier in audio, it works on your emotions driving it, it’s just special.
  • @iabarrera
    That V8 noise is absolutely INTOXICATING 🚀
  • @ForTehNguyen
    my mom got one in 2018 for her 60th birthday, she said she will never sell it
  • @nintense1
    It’s a grown up Corvette, for grown up people. Got a 24 years old Lexus V8 in my driveway, and every time I get to drive it, I’m amazed how good they built it.
  • @johnfowler3873
    LC 500 to Jack -"What?, I can't hear you!, Speak up!, What?" Awesomness. Makes me want to buy one and I'm not even close to 70...
  • @Suction_
    I love when Jack is complaining, Mark just has that big shit-eating grinn followed by copious amounts of RPM just telling him to essentially get bent. Love it
  • @phizix5023
    If I was rich, this is 100% the car that would be in my driveway. The coupe version though. Not much of a convertible guy.
  • @on-site4094
    It’s one of the cars that can be passed down for generations without spending a fortune on repairs & most features still functioning
