TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2018 Jaguar F-Type is a thrilling sports car with style to match.

Lexus aims in a completely new direction with its 2018 LC 500 Coupe—and it’s an exciting one.

TCC Likes

Lovely style inside and out
Great ride-and-handling balance on most models
Lots of available tech

Obsessive chassis engineering
Free-breathing V-8
A 10-speed!

TCC Dislikes

… although that price is rather high at every level
New turbo-4 is light on refinement, sounds odd
AWD a must-take on F-Type R

Caught between sports car and luxury coupe
Back seat looks very tight
Are ten speeds too many?
