The car is beautiful, and sounds beautiful, but on the very first corner I took it out on the track, the balance felt off. 2018 Lexus LC500 Review vs 2017 Lexus GS F Review. I drove the GS F immediately after driving the LC500, and felt a big surge of confidence. Having taken both vehicles around the circuit back-to-back, it was easy to compare them directly. My two lap times in the Lexus LC500 were a minute 59.84, and 2 minutes point one five. My two laps in the GS F were 1:58.52, and 1:55.52, both of which confirming my suspicion that the GS F felt more planted, better balanced, and as a result allowed for more confident, quicker driving. Looking at the speed data, my cornering speed was higher in the GS F for nearly every bend. Both vehicles use Lexus’s 5.0 Liter naturally aspirated 90 degree V8. In the GS F, it’s producing 467 horsepower and 389 lb-ft of torque. In the LC500, it’s producing slightly more of each, 471 horsepower and 398 lb-ft. The LC500 has a 10 speed automatic, where the GS F has an 8 speed. The GS F weighs in at 4,034 lbs, while the LC500 weighs almost an additional 250 pounds at 4,280! The GS F has larger front tires, and significantly larger front and rear brakes. The GS F also has a better weight distribution, and comes standard with a torque vectoring rear differential. The LC500, on the other hand, comes standard with an open differential, with the option to add a Torsen LSD. To the LC’s credit, it does manage a just slightly quicker 0-60 time, for which the additional torque, and superior transmission play their part.
