雷克萨斯最时髦的LC 500是2024米ore Carbon Fiber

Everyone's favorite six-figure Lexus is back for another year, with the gorgeousLexus LC500 Inspiration Series making a comebackafter a one-year hiatus.

The premise behind the special edition is similar, but don't think you're getting the old car at a new price ($116,700 for the Coupe and $121,900 for the Convertible). The Inspiration Series is a sportier take for 2024, with canards on the front bumper and a new carbon fiber fixed rear wing. The wing appears to be the same one from theJapan-only Aviation Edition.

Limited to just 125 units, these exterior adjustments are highlighted by new 21-inch matte black forged alloy wheels and, for the first time on an LC, Polar Surge Satin paint over a Deep Blue interior.

The LC Convertible takes this concept and enhances it with a blue fabric soft-top.

Both derivatives feature contrast black details on the grille surround, headlights, taillights, mirror caps, and rocker garnish.

Inspiration Series models from Lexus are said to derive their, err, inspiration from the Japanese brand's racing past, which is why the aerodynamic enhancements are such a prominent feature. To make sure the go matches the show, you also get the full might of the Torsen limited-slip differential and performance suspension dampers. Beyond this, the LC 500 Inspiration Series in coupe guise inherits front and rear underfloor bracing from the convertible to make its chassis even stiffer, while a carbon fiber roof lowers the center of gravity.

These systems will help you take full advantage of the 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 (the V6 hybrid doesn't get the Inspiration Series treatment) with 471 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque sent to the rear axle through a 10-speed automatic gearbox.
