Vehicle Description
This car is in incredible condition and appears as if it has half
the indicated miles. It obviously was always garaged, as there is
no interior fading. We found this car for a senior female eight
years ago, with about 92,000 miles at the time. Tires and brakes
have 80% remaining life.The Lexus SC430 long-haul comfort and build
quality is impervious to high mileage. It is different from the
herd and on paper it has the kind of specification well soon be
drooling over in motor museums: a naturally aspirated 300 hp
4.3-litre V8 driving the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic
gearbox, double-wishbone suspension and a folding aluminum roof.
The 2003 Lexus SC receives an average consumer rating of 4.9
overall and a 4.9 for reliability, which means owners consider its
reliability to be above average. According to drivers of the 2003
SC430, here are some of its best features: Style, amenities,
folding hardtop, and that engine! The 2+2 cabin is a gadget-lovers
paradise and, this being a Lexus, you wont have to worry about any
of it not working. The climate control system can sense whether the
roof is open or closed, as well as the speed the car is travelling
at and the ambient temperature, and automatically direct chilled or
warm air as necessary. Theres a knockout Mark Levinson sound system
(many rate higher than high-end home systems), powered and heated
seats, electrically adjustable steering column and a touchscreen
navigation (which can be swapped out for a modern one - even with
reversing camera; all in the original space). The cabin is trimmed
in leather and those door and fascia cappings are real wood, shaped
and lacquered with the help of musical instrument makers Yamaha.
Everything is finished and screwed together beautifully, qualities
that serve todays used SCs very well. This car has the Lexus
tweaked suspension that in late-2002 brought improvements to the
ride, handling and refinement.

SC430 design was a collaborative effort between studios in Europe
and Japan. However, chief designer Sotiris Kovos apparently drew
most of his inspiration from the timeless Italian Riva powerboats
found on the Cote dAzur. The elegant styling was therefore
characterized by a compact cabin, flowing surfaces and a tight
lower body. The leather interior of the SC430 is by Coach, maker of
expensive handbags.Lexus built around 80,000 of these cars during
the entire production run from 2001-2010, ensuring its rarity.
