LC GT500 From Lexus Will Rival in 2017 Super GT Season

Lexus is presenting the latest LC 500 instead of the RC F racecar in Japan.

The race vehicle has the same outstanding outlook as the production LC 500. However, the race vehicle’s design stands on an absolutely different level. Some people say that it is the best looking Japanese vehicle produced by Lexus.

Having been created by TRD in Japan, the discussed modes has very little in common with the production version. Besides, it has to rival with a 2.0-litre turbocharged V4 unit found in the other GT500 models. The motor is joined to a 6-speed sequential gearbox. The model under consideration will rival door-to-door with such supercars as the GT-R from Nissan and NSX produced by Honda.

The car will be campaigned next year’s Super GT season that starts in September.
