Lexus SC430 review covering 2001 To Date

Wednesday 16 November 2005

Despite their forays into the compact executive and luxury 4x4 markets most still associate Lexus with the production of big, technologically advanced luxury saloons. When Toyota’s luxury division announced that they were planning on bringing an open topped car to market that would rival the Mercedes SL most took the threat seriously. Unfortunately the Sc430 never really proved itself up to the task of taking the fight to the big Mercedes and as a result used values for the few that did sell are distinctly reasonable.There are many cars that seem a bit of a duffer when new but make interesting used cars second time around and the SC430 fits into this category with a significant caveat. Although you’ll save a packet on the car’s new [price, used values are still falling fast., making a used SC430 a pretty pricey companion on a pence per mile basis. As long as that’s clear upfront and you know the nature of this vehicle there’s no reason why you shouldn’t find a well looked after example rather enjoyable.
