LC500 Discontinued / Fewer Options ?

[MR500]

I’ve been on the lookout for a late used LC500 and have been checking the Lexus website. I thought today I might just buy a new one but the LC500 configurator appears to have been removed from the website. In view of the low sales levels, I wonder if the car has been quietly discontinued or if the three options, basic, sport and sport+ have maybe been rationalised.

Any clues anyone?

Lexus Bolton had one in their showroom last week.

I think it is because the 2022 spec has just been firmed up and they are updating the configurator? Lexus GB issued a press release mentioning the 2022 updated suspension a few days ago so doubt it has been discontinued.

I think as Colin says and as I understand it a few of the American would be buyers have experienced the same thing. Give it a week or so and I think you find the configurator back up and running.

Just been on the Lexus site, and it reports as follows:

Sorry, we are currently updating our LC car configurator to make it an even better experience. If you would like more information about the model you’ve chosen, please see the pricelist or contact your local centre using the finder below.

The same also applies to the convertible configurator.

Hope that helps.

They are still taking orders - quarter 4 ‘22 delivery. So no not gone yet.
