The Lexus LC leans toward luxury more than it does performance, which makes it stand out against most of its direct rivals.
The Mercedes-Benz SL is plush most of the time and sporty in certain configurations, yet its convertible shape may not appeal to all shoppers.
The BMW 8-Series strikes a good balance, though its price tag climbs rapidly.
By contrast, the Jaguar F-Type feels like something of a bargain even with a lineup pared down for 2020.
The Porsche 911 does nearly all things well and shouldn’t be missed.
It’s not likely many shoppers will also consider the Nissan GT-R, but those who do will find ferocious performance and a sprinkling of luxury.
