MARKETING DIRECTOR
LEXUS MANILA, INC.
"The LC500 a game changer for Lexus. It not only is a brand new car for us,
it's also showing the new brand direction of Lexus right now. We want to be
more aggressive. We want to show people that in terms of design and
technology, Lexus can also be leaders in the field. The concept of LC500
was to take something from a concept car and transform it directly into a
production car and I think the production car you see here beside us right
now is very very faithful and true to that direction and concept."
RAYMOND RODRIGUEZ
PRESIDENT
LEXUS MANILA, INC.
"This one, the category of this is also under to be a luxurious coupe model
and as we mentioned, it's the latest offering from Lexus and as you can
see, it's quite aggressive in terms of design and technology. And earlier,
we presented this to our media friends and customers. It carries a 5liter
V8 engine and this can generate as much as 477 horsepower. It's quite a
strong car."
Lexus Manila presented the Lexus LC 500 with a body that enfolds 2+2
seating, with minimal room for rear passengers and not much access for
fitting in a baby seat. An arched body line and oversized wheels give the
LC 500 an athletic look, while the massive Lexus spindle grille dominates
the front. According to Lexus, the design is inspired by the Lexus LF-LC
concept from 2012.
RAYMOND RODRIGUEZ
PRESIDENT
LEXUS MANILA, INC.
"It's a shift. Like, our motto now is 'Experience Amazing'. It's more of
the experience of a customer or the owner. It's no more the traditional
luxury items like expensive bags, expensive materials but it's more on time
and more on emotions. So that, for us, is what the new 'luxury' definition
is. It's more of the experience. It's like you got traveling, you never
forget memories. So this car is something like that. It can deliver."
