www.bgcmc.org\/win<\/a>. A total of 3,000 tickets are available at $100 each. The drawing culminates this September 13 when one lucky winner will gain the keys to the world-class luxury convertible, newly released this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Lexus LC 500 Convertible is powered by a 5.0L naturally aspirated V8 engine that produces 471 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. The throaty V8 is paired with a Direct-Shift 10-speed automatic transmission, with the ability to click through the gears via magnesium paddle shifters mounted just behind the steering wheel. Additional features include Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), standard 20-inch wheels, and an active sport exhaust, just to name a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The convertible soft top itself is a thing of beauty. The top is designed to open in 15 seconds and close in 16 seconds, depending upon weather conditions. What\u2019s more, the top can be opened or closed up to approximately 31 mph. Lexus engineers focused on a four-layer soft top design to accentuate the sleek lines of the convertible without significant intrusions to the trunk and cabin space that can come with a heavier, bulkier hard top. The smooth, elegant roof movement is inspired by the three-step motion of Japanese calligraphy: ink brush to paper, movement to the right, the stopping of the ink brush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inside, summers can be endless thanks to an HVAC system that adjusts the temperature whether the top is raised or lowered. The Lexus Climate Concierge with Upper Body Heating automatically manages the air conditioner, seat heaters, neck heaters and steering-wheel heater to ensure the cabin is comfortable. The HVAC system is even optimized to send warm or cold air to the back of the driver\u2019s hands when gripping the steering wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The LC 500\u2019s Lexus Safety System+ encompasses a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Lane Keep Assist, All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Intelligent High Beams. Blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert is also added to the vehicle\u2019s impressive safety features. Drivers also enjoy a superior technology experience, thanks to a navigation system with 10.3-inch color LCD multimedia display, which includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Amazon Alexa compatibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This opportunity to raise funds for people in need comes as the Pebble Beach Concours sees its 70th anniversary sidelined by COVID-19 restrictions. “While we will miss the chance to showcase some of the world’s most iconic automobiles on the 18th fairway of Pebble Beach Golf Links this summer, we are grateful to Lexus for its extremely generous donation that will enable the Concours to continue to meet its commitment to local youth through the Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County,” said Pebble Beach Concours Chairman Sandra Button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
