    Great engine, beautiful interior. Unlike the exotics, also dependable, and when you put that top down. Well, you have to drive it to believe it. Great navagation system, and the sound system cant be beat.

    Get rid of the run flat tires. They are horrible!

    My SC430 is model year 2002...the first year it was introduced. I purchased the SC430 as a retirement gift to myself and drive it every day. It does not sit in the gararge. I have driven it from Virginia to the Florida Keys a few times and have taken many other trips.

    Enjoy the outdoors while driving is an amazing experience. Enjoy the completely automatic retractable roof - no manual latching or fighting with the top. Pick-up is good. Very comfortable to drive. Although the backseat and trunk space are limited, I didnt purchase the vehicle for space. I purchased it for the experience!

    Very quiet and rides well. With the top down, you can hear the passenger talking at normal voice levels. Stereo system is very nice and GPS works very well. Seating and climate controls are very good. Accelerates well once it is moving, but has a distinct hesitation before shifting that can get you into trouble while merging into traffic.

    If your looking for a smooth running V8 300 hp vehicle with zero defects, this is the one.

  • Perfect with a few mods - 2004 Lexus SC 430
    By -

    Overall I am thrilled about this car. The stock handling can be improved significantly with new stiffer antisway bars from Daizen. They make cornering much flatter, tighter and more controlled. I have the runflat Dunlops which are jarring when hitting potholes. I will replace with conventional tires when they wear out. One other aftermarket item that makes the car sweeter is Luxlink. It is a remote convertible operating system that uses the unlock button on the key to open and close the top. No more holding the switch on the dash for 30 sec. They are sold at Luxury Motorworks for $230.
