Pros: What do you like about 2006 Lexus SC 430?
Style, Interior fit and finish

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Lexus SC 430?
Sync for phone,ipod etc.
Smoked glass roof panel like the 500SL or 550 Sport,would probably be less claustrophobic
a bit more road feel and tighter suspension, leave out the "backseat joke".
Radio controls voice activated or on steering wheel, paddle shiffting for the 6-spd auto., better sub-woofer

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
This is a classic Lexus, executive style quietness totally insulated from the world and the road. This car turns heads everywhere we drove it! I own a 2002 SC430 and test drove the 2006.

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
Not much to say, except that
it is a Lexus and this means
a lot, especially that it is not built but engineered.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Lexus SC 430?
quietness, luxury interior, automatic hardtop

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Lexus SC 430?
lower ratio steering, moderately firm up suspension, moderately stiffer anti sway bars, Goodyear F1-GS-D3 tires as option.End deception that run flat tires are an option when no dealer in the Greater Los Angeles/San Diego had a 2006 SC430 with standard tires in inventory.

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
Exceptionally quiet and smooth acceleration and very comfortable deating.If given the option, most drivers would choose a somewhat stiffer suspension and swaybar combination that would lessen lean and float on winding, undulating roads. Otherwise a joy to drive.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Lexus SC 430?
Convertible car with real luxury, the best reliability, Good power (60MPH in 5.8sec.), excellent comfort, outstanding stereo sound (best in the market), premium amenities, 4.3-liter V-8 features VVT-i engine that achieves only 19-mpg in the city and 25-mpg on the HW and a very low depreciation.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Lexus SC 430?
Maybe an extra inch or two in the headroom.

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
Don??t compare it with Porsche or MB, they are different animals. If you want to feel the engine, the road and handling of a real sport car go with a Porsche or SL500 or if you have the bucks go with a Ferrari but if you want to have a quasi Sporty convertible car with real luxury, the best reliability in the market, good power (60MPH in 5.8sec.), excellent comfort, outstanding stereo sound, premium amenities and you want to keep the best value in a car the SC430 is the car! Some people, disapprove the back seat, but to me it's a good thing, why? Because my insurance is not considering my SC like a Sport Car that normally is 50% more expensive expensive than a regular car because the 4 seats.

None!

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
What could go wrong, it's made by the most reputable and reliable car makers in the world. Forget about the bucket seats, everyone knows it's a car made for 2 people and that is fine by me! We bought it for the reliability and quality of the car.

2006 Lexus SC 430 Review:
I love this car it's everything a convertible could be and exactly what I wanted. Large enough to be comfortable, sporty enough to be the talk of the parking lot. Interior detail is lavished with all that is lovely, outside is curvaceous and innovative. The top feature is intriguing to all who witness it, it's truly convertible in every sense of the word. Sporting 20" Chromes with run flat Toyos it drives like a dream, all on-lookers drool. Some convertibles are made for the regular drivers - they needn't be speed demons, corner huggin', fastest off the line to enjoy -for those of you who always wanted a convertible - this car is for you. It's BODACIOUS Fun Drivin' Fun To Own
