The Lexus SC 430 comes with a V8 and is packed with a lot of amenities. It has a one touch power folding hard top, better security features, and further noise reduction all these make the car a luxury tourer and also gives a real sports car experience.

The 288 horse power V8 Configuration, a sportier suspension, smoother acceleration and quick handling are the positives of the car. It also gains a speed of 60 mph in 5.8 seconds. The interiors  of the car are plush with leather seats birds eye wood trim, heated seats, a good navigation system, HID lights, 18 inch wheels, blue tooth, and auto  climate controls.

But Lexus could have done much without the rear seats because they sort of crump the space in the inside. Other short comings are that the analog satellite communication service will be supported by Lexus in its cars only until 2007 end. Other than that the SC 430 still has a cut in the coupe’ market and the sales register show a consistent rate of success. Lexus also has added knee bags for the passengers and also a airbag deactivation sensor in the front passenger seat. The pebble beach package that Lexus came up with gave the car an azure color and a maple interior trim.
