The special limited edition LC 500 Pinnacle Edition features distinct details compared to the standard version, such as 21-inch alloy wheels, red brake calipers, and a carbon fiber rear spoiler. The Coupe version has a matte silver exterior, while the Convertible is painted gray with a sand beige fabric top.
The cabin features premium leather seats and carbon fiber trim. The interior color schemes vary depending on the body style. The Coupe uses black and white tones, while the Convertible features white and tan. Standard equipment includes a heads-up display (HUD), a Mark Levinson surround sound system, and other high-end features.
The LC 500 Pinnacle Edition is equipped with a 5.0 V8 naturally aspirated engine, producing 471 horsepower and 540 Nm of torque. It's paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. While the chassis of the limited edition LC 500 remains unchanged, Lexus has refined it with redesigned door latches for increased rigidity.
The Lexus LC 500 Pinnacle Edition will be sold in Japan through a lottery system. The official launch is scheduled for 26/6, with deliveries expected later this year.
