@lloydweb Indeed, the salesman had initially said (my) RC was silver but when I seen the Sonic Titanium, I was like wow.

Strangely the Red LC I really liked too, and I am not a huge red fan.

You may have competition for a Sonic Titanium LC if one comes up!

There is a Sonic Titanium RC 300h at my local golf club. It looks absolutely superb. I parked next to it on Tuesday just to admire its lines but not close enough he might clatter me with his humongous door :wink3:

It's a really striking colour, particularly in sunlight and nearly always looks clean! When I was looking for an LC earlier in the year, the only one I could find was miles away from me in Cheltenham, and even without COVID, there was no way I was driving all that distance. Plus it was virtually new and pretty much list price. 

I just checked Approved Used Lexus and Autotrader, out of curiosity; not one Sonic Titanium LC! I'll probably be in the market again 2024/2025 unless something else comes along.

Curiously I prefer Sonic Red but just in recent days I bought a Sonic Titanium on the basis of an offer too good to refuse. If I'm honest, I think darker colours better suit the LC, but I also appreciate silvers once washed look cleaner for longer.

I've been keeping an eye on the used LC market for the past 12 months or so and my 1st choice would most definitely have been Sonic Titanium.  The only one I've seen for sale in the past year was this one:

LC500h Sonic Titanium

Which seemed a bit overpriced.

In the end I manged to grab my second choice Cadoxton Slate and love it!  It does get dirty quick though..

Not sure about that. There are 6 red ones on AT and 3 white,one of which is new and another a private sale which is never easy for specialist cars.

But then I too am biased!

Is that the LC500h from Lexus Lincoln?

Hi A J, 

Yes it was indeed. Got it for a fair price in the end with trade in and bit of a knock down from listed. I saw the lower priced offers at Gatwick but with the lower mileage and rare opportunity to get my colour of choice I went for it. There was a good deal to be had at Lexus Newcastle for a similar spec 2019 Sonic Red but I think it went fast.

I was at Lincoln a few weeks back and a couple were taking their black V8 out on demo.The Manager told me he was getting back in a grey hybrid model that week which I subsequently saw advertised but then quickly sold.

Hope you enjoy it.

There has recently been quite an increase in sales of LC cars.When I got mine 18 months ago there were a number of cars which had been for sale for some while.

A J.
