Lexus Announces Plans for First Convertible
2002 SC 430 Arrives in Spring 2003.
Retractable Hardtop
HELLO, SUNSHINE. The SC 430 is a sport coupe that turns into a convertible quite magically. Simply push a button, and the aluminum top lowers all by itself, in 25 seconds, storing in the front part of the trunk, still leaving enough room for a set of golf clubs.1
Styling
CURVES THAT MAKE OTHER CARS BLUSH. The SC 430 has an aerodynamic design that not only looks exquisite, but reduces drag and aids in the elimination of wind noise, whether the top is up or down.
Water-Repellent Door Glass
BRIGHTEN UP A GLOOMY DAY. The SC 430 keeps visibility high even in a downpour thanks to the water-repellent glass on its doors. So even if it's gray and rainy, everything appears a bit clearer.
300-hp Engine
POPPING THE HOOD. FLEXING. SAME DIFFERENCE. The SC 430, you see, has a 4.3-liter, 300-horsepower V8 with all-aluminum construction and equipped with an Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS) to adjust intake tract length for optimal torque. Plus continuously Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) provides optimum power as engine speed varies.
Lexus DVD Navigation System
IT CAN TAKE YOU WHERE YOU'VE NEVER BEEN. And tell you how to get back. Choose the SC 430 with the available Lexus DVD Navigation System,3 and getting lost could be a thing of the past. Missed a turn? Don't worry. The system can recalculate your route faster than you can unfold a map.
