Overview & Reviews
After nearly a decade out of the sport coupe spotlight, Lexus returns with a compelling entry. Since its debut of the SC coupe in 1992, Lexus has largely been overlooked by shoppers who wanted avant-garde styling, sports car performance and luxurious appointments. And it has never before offered a convertible roof. They need look no further. The new SC 430 delivers all that in spades.
- Luxurious comfort and convenience features, avant-garde styling, wonderful engine performance, retractable hard-top, Lexus quality.
- Sparse cargo space, cramped (nearly useless) rear seats.

Almost Perfect - 2002 Lexus SC 430
By Jeff - March 1 - 2:53 amLove this car. Fast, fun top up or down. Quiet. Bulletproof. Love the exotic wood look of the birds eye maple. Wish I could add about 100 more horsepower just for fun but then that would be a 911S, wouldnt it? Seriously if you are considering an SC430, its a great 2 seater with a lot of package room. (Dont think of the rear seats as seats, they are simply insurance lowering devices). The Mark Levinson sound system is the best Ive heard in a car. Get rid of the run-flats and put Michelin performance tires on for less road noise. The best compliment that I can give this car is that my next car may be a newer one with 6-speed automatic and satellite radio.

By S HARPER - February 24 - 5:13 amAlways draws a crowd. Drives well especially when accelerating through turns. Not really a sports car, but itll do considering cost to purchase.

A timeless beauty! Lexus 430 - 2002 Lexus SC 430
By psitzmary - January 20 - 2:56 amA dream come true! A car that is worth 65k for 33k! Looks great and rides like whipped butter. Its a 2002 & the only difference between the later models are the mileage, price, voice activated nav and the bluetooth. Save yourself thousands, get an early model with low mileage. Get a good earpiece for your cell phone & save. Its the same car though 2002 was the best one, research it! Though I must be practical and balance mileage and gas because of high gas prices for premium, its totally worth it! When gas is high, ride around town! When gas is lowered, hit the road! You will look good and feel great doing it! I LOVE my Lexus 430!

Purchased with 85,000 miles. - 2002 Lexus SC 430
By Used 85,000 miles sc - January 12 - 5:50 pmPurchased this car because I was looking for reliability in a pseudo sports car. I am 50+ and I wanted to gracefully move through midlife crisis in a sporty car. I have owned three Porsches for over 25 years, and then a Mercedes. Since 02 Ive owned an Acura TLS. Reliability was one of the major considerations to purchase this car. Its too soon to tell, but for now this Lexus still runs like new.

SC430 - 2002 Lexus SC 430
By LOU - October 25 - 10:00 amCar drives very smoothly . Run flat tires do take away from the Lexus ride . Car is a head turner wherever you go. 15,000 miles and not one item had to go back to dealer for repair or adjustment.

Leuxs SC 430 - 2002 Lexus SC 430
By dpb - August 31 - 2:00 amOutstanding vehicle. Used to have a C5, and I cant believe how many more people have commented on what a great looking car the SC430 is (did not get near the same number of compliments with the C5).
