Traded in my RX300 with this SC430 new in 2007. Three years & 34,000 miles later, I have not had any problems with this car. Black Sapphire exterior and Camel leather interior turns head anywhere I go. Had to change the tires at the 26000-mile mark. With depreciation and maintenance be ready to have a $1000 a month expense on this car. It's worth every dime!

The best-convertible hardtop

My Lexus SC430 is as modern now as back in 2007. The cost back then was $67k because it has all the features of new cars today. I wouldn’t have a soft top convertible due to the top fading and getting torn as well as roll over if an accident. My color of Tiger Eye Pearl Mica is beautiful, it sparkles in the sun and people tell me it’s great! The big V-8 is smooth and powerful, it’s a luxury cruiser. I got only 112k miles for a 2007 and keep in maintained on all ways. This will be my last car as I’m 70 but will love every day I have it!

Stylish Convertible

Nice convertible with hard top so it is quieter than cloth convertibles. Luxury interior but electronics are outdated and were outdated in 2009. Great ride and lots of power. Really enjoyed the ownership.

Looks arent everything

I had recently bought the Lexus SC430 and I truly hate this car. I have the rare pebble beach edition too. The first problem was that my left headlamp fell off while I was driving on the highway. Lexus said that it was due to driver neglegance. Then my power top got stuck halfway closed they did replace it. Then my alternator went bad I've been through six already. Then three days ago my brakes let go coming up my driveway. The car is nice looking yes but its very unrealiable. Then my whole instrument panel stopped working. That cost me $1,100 dollars because it wasn't covered. I also have a Cadillac STS-V and that gets better mpg than the Lexus. Im trading this in for a most likely a Cadillac.

purchased a 2008 with 44K miles, one owner and reasonably well maintained. Roof leaked that needed to be repaired. Since then fun car to drive. Really a classic car that turns heads. Love it

Was so pleased that I bought this beautiful car for myself as a present of turning 60. Try a Porsche 911 turbo but just wasn’t me.

I love the look of the car especially with the top down. It has a very solid ride and feel to it. The quality is outstanding. I am also amazed at the gas mileage for an 8 cylinder which is excellent. Over all it was a very good purchase decision.

An old vehicle keeps its youthful spirit!

It is a wonderful ride! After a minor tweak during a maintenance visit, the SC drives like a new vehicle. Leus knows comfort in its vehicles and this automobile is an accurate measurement of its workmanship.
