Buyers who demand the security of a coupe with the style and open-air exhilaration of a convertible in one finely crafted sport luxury package will find plenty to love in the 2009 Lexus SC 430 – all of it backed by one of the world’s best dealer networks.
The SC 430’s exterior styling won’t please everyone, and its rear seating exists in name only. While impressively quick and nicely balanced, it also lacks the precise and crisp responsiveness of the BMW 335i Cabriolet, Cadillac XLR and Mercedes-Benz SL550 or SLK55 AMG.
