* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.
- Reliability (5)Lexus is renowned for its reliability, and the SC 430 is no exception. These cars are built to last with proper maintenance.
- Technology (3)The original infotainment system is dated by modern standards, with a basic navigation and audio system. Bluetooth connectivity is absent, requiring aftermarket solutions.
- Comfort (4)Excellent ride quality and a hushed cabin make for a very relaxing experience. The seats are supportive and well-cushioned for long journeys.
- Affordability (4)As a used luxury convertible, the SC 430 offers a lot of style and comfort for its price point compared to newer models. However, maintenance costs can still be a factor.
- Interior Practicality (2)Rear seats are extremely cramped, suitable only for very small children or temporary use. Trunk space is also limited, especially with the convertible top down.
- Dynamics (3)While the V8 offers smooth acceleration, the handling is more geared towards cruising than sporty driving. The ride is comfortable but can feel a bit soft for spirited cornering.
