Кабриолет Lexus LC 500 Convertible, дебютировавший прошлой осенью на автосалоне в Лос-Анджелесе, поступит на американский рынок только этим летом, но один экземпляр можно будет приобрести уже на этой неделе. Его выставят на торги аукционного дома Barrett-Jackson 17 января.

Это будет автомобиль из серии Inspiration с кузовом ярко-синего оттенка Structural Blue со вставками Liquid Platinum, 21-дюймовыми коваными дисками цвета Liquid Graphite с черными глянцевыми акцентами и синими тормозными суппортами и салоном из белой полуанилиновой кожи. VIN кабриолета оканчивается на 100001, а на его дверных порогах имеются карбоновые накладки с надписью LC Inspiration Series Launch Exclusive 1 of 1.

Помимо самой машины, покупатель получит ее эскиз в рамке, портфолио со снимками с производственной линии, подписанный инженерами и директором завода в Мотомати сертификат, багажный комплект Zero Halliburton, уроки вождения со Скоттом Прюэттом в Lexus Performance Driving Experience, три ночи в отеле в Пеббл-Бич на двоих, игру в гольф там же и другие бонусы. Все вырученные средства будут направлены двум благотворительным организациям – Boys & Girls Clubs of America и Bob Woodruff Foundation, помогающим детям и ветеранам.

Как и купе, кабриолет Lexus LC 500 оснащается 5,0-литровым V8 на 477 л.с. и 540 Нм в сочетании с 10-ступенчатым автоматом. Четырехслойная мягкая крыша спорткара складывается за 15 секунд.

ONE-OF-A-KIND 2021 LEXUS LC 500 CONVERTIBLE TO BE AUCTIONED FOR CHARITY AT

BARRETT-JACKSON

• 100% of Hammer Price Donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of America & Bob Woodruff Foundation • LC 500 Convertible VIN 100001 Based on Structural Blue Inspiration Series
• “LC Inspiration Series Launch Exclusive 1 of 1” Carbon-Fiber Scuff Plates, Other Unique Cues • Custom Aluminum Hardcase Zero Halliburton® Luggage Set Included and More

SCOTTSDALE, Arizona (January 12, 2020) – They say good things comes to those who wait, but “they” clearly weren’t thinking about the new V8-powered Lexus LC 500 Convertible. Introduced at the Los Angeles International Auto Show, the 2021 LC Convertible will go on sale this summer, but those champing at the bit can place a bid on a one-of-a-kind LC Convertible as quickly as next week at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. The auction will take place at approximately 4:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on January 17, 2020. Every cent of the hammer price will be split evenly between two very deserving charities – Boys & Girls Clubs of America® and the Bob Woodruff Foundation.

ONE-OF-A-KIND CONVERTIBLE

All 2021 LC 500 Convertibles are powered by an impressive naturally-aspirated V8 engine that produces 471 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque, but there are several things that make the LC 500 Convertible auction vehicle* truly one of a kind. For starters, collectors will gush over the fact that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) will feature the final six digits of 100001. Based on the Inspiration Series, it will feature the breathtaking Structural Blue exterior paint and elegant white semi-aniline leather interior, but this vehicle will include unique blue brake calipers that are tucked behind the exclusive 21- inch Liquid Graphite-colored forged alloy wheels with gloss black accents. Liquid Platinum color accents can be found on the headlamp garnishes, side intake garnish, side mirrors and taillamps. Inside each door, the auction vehicle will be fitted with carbon-fiber scuff plates with the note: “LC Inspiration Series Launch Exclusive 1 of 1.”

An impressive collection of additional collectables and experiences are included in the auction package as well. The winner will receive a framed sketch of the LC Convertible, a portfolio with production-line photos and a one-of-one certificate signed by vehicle chief engineers as well as general manager of the Motomachi plant where the vehicle is produced. The auction winner will also receive the very first luggage set from iconic travel brand Zero Halliburton’s new design series with custom Lexus cues – which, importantly, fits nicely into the LC Convertible’s trunk. The highest bidder will also receive a curated driving package that includes a Lexus Performance Driving Experience with brand ambassador Scott Pruett, a three-night hotel stay for two at Pebble Beach Resort, a round of golf for two at Pebble Beach Golf Course, and more.

RAISING MONEY FOR CHILDREN & VETERANS

Every cent raised from the auction of the LC 500 Convertible will be donated to two charities: Boys & Girls Clubs of America and the Bob Woodruff Foundation. Boys & Girls Clubs of America focuses on creating after-school programs for kids and teens across the nation, with the goal being "To enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring,

responsible citizens." The Bob Woodruff Foundation finds, funds and shapes programs benefitting post- 9/11 impacted veterans, service members and their families long after their time in uniform.
