THIS SUMMER’S MASTERPIECE

LEXUS LC 500 CONVERTIBLE

The Lexus design team was given a daunting challenge: to create the world’s most beautiful open-top car. And they had to do it without compromising the sinuous lines of the award-winning Lexus LC 500 coupé.

The result is the ultimate summer ride that retains the coupé’s acclaimed curves, with the roof cover set as low as possible to avoid the familiar flat, platform look typical of many convertibles. The beltline kicks up behind the doors, creating an overall tight and clean profile. Because the cabin is more open to view, Lexus has used innovative colour co-ordination to enhance the model’s special character and extrovert design. This, of course, also means that you get to really enjoy the enthralling automotive symphony that only a naturally aspirated V8 engine can deliver.
