Lexus Motors, an importer of Lexus to Israel, begins marketing the cabriolet version of the LC500, Lexus' ultra-designed, high-quality luxury car, in fact one of the most meticulous models in the history of the Japanese manufacturer.

As with its closed sister, the one without a roof also uses the 5.0-liter Lexus power plant, atmospheric with 464 hp and 54 kg.

These run to the rear wheels through a 10-speed gearbox and she in turn ran to 100 km / h in 5 seconds (4.7 seconds in the sport version plus a more powerful coupe) and will continue to run up to a maximum of 270 km / h.

The shock absorbers are adaptive, but unlike the coupe, here there is no limited-slip differential and steering for the four wheels.
