Was very disappointed in this model. Ride was rough. Hard to get in/out. I'm no longer considering this model

Superb In Every Aspect

Lexus poured all of their engineering and design expertise into this little car in 2002. The design of the body panels for minimum wind resistance, the monster brakes, the smooth as silk 8-cylinder 4.3L engine, the luxurious interior and stereo, directional headlights, on-board navigation and, of course, the flawless convertible top. Body rigidity is very good. Reliability is excellent. It was not meant to be a BMW, Audi or Porsche. It is a grand touring coupe. Aside from ugly wheels on the first models it has aged well and is a beautiful, comfortable and fun car. Read all the reviews on line and you will see that almost nobody gives it less than 5 stars. There's a reason why.

Reliability and Fun!

I have had my 2005 SC430 for about 2 years now. I have really enjoyed this beast! It's finally about spring, and time to take her out of hibernation! Even though this car is closing in on 20 years old, it still surprises me how everything just works, and works well even after all these years! This car can totally change my mood if I'm having a rough day. Just drop the top and go!! It is not a corner carving machine, but also was never intended to be. It is a luxury cruiser that has a hint of sportiness to it. I plan on keeping this thing forever. It's my first Lexus and first convertible, I believe I made the right decision. I also enjoy the fact that you do not see these at every corner, so it feels like you are driving a special car.
