A grand tourer that was originally designed to compete with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz CL, the Lexus SC has always been an outlier, enjoyed by connoisseurs of cars that offer a combination of comfort and reliability with the open-top motoring experience. This 2002 Lexus SC430 is a perfect example of the second generation of SC, and with an original MSRP of $61,000, this garage-kept car has plenty of choice options that have helped it stay modern.
Exterior and Interior
This silver example of a 2002 Lexus SC430 features a beige leather interior with plenty of wood adorning the dashboard and steering wheel. This electrically-operated hard-top convertible can go from slick-top coupe to open-top convertible in just 25 seconds. The Lexus SC430 was designed with particular emphasis applied to its performance in the wind tunnel, enabling engineers to craft the car so that, when the roof was down, wind would be channelled away from the passenger compartment. The interior also features the premium Mark Levinson audio system that was offered on the SC430 from the factory, which includes speed-sensitive volume control.
Engine
The engine underneath the hood of the Lexus SC430 is a 4.3-liter V8 which powers the grand tourer through a 5-speed gearbox. With 288hp and 317 lb-ft of torque, the SC430 can do the 0-60mph sprint in 6.2 seconds.
At a time when luxury automakers were experimenting with innovative convertible designs, the Lexus SC 430 emerged as one of the most refined grand touring convertibles on the market. This 2003 Lexus SC 430, showing just 54,607 miles, combines timeless styling, exceptional build quality, and Lexus reliability into a package that remains highly desirable more than two decades after its debut. Powered by a smooth 4.3-liter V8 and featuring a power retractable hardtop, the SC 430 delivers the comfort of a luxury coupe and the enjoyment of an open-top roadster. Finished in elegant Millennium Silver Metallic over Ecru leather, this example presents an excellent opportunity to own a well-preserved luxury cruiser from Lexus’ golden era.
Luxury hardtop convertibles are a dying breed, which makes this 2008 Lexus SC 430 Pebble Beach Edition an increasingly desirable modern classic. Showing just 45,905 miles, this limited-production grand touring convertible was created to celebrate Lexus’ long-standing partnership with the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Combining Lexus reliability with elegant styling and a silky-smooth V8 powerplant, the SC 430 offers a refined driving experience that remains just as enjoyable today as it was when new. Finished in exclusive Smoky Granite Mica and equipped with the highly sought-after Pebble Beach Edition package, this example represents a unique opportunity to own one of the final luxury retractable hardtop convertibles from Lexus.
Luxury personal coupes have largely disappeared from today’s automotive landscape, which makes the 2010 Lexus SC 430 an especially appealing modern classic. Built during an era when Lexus prioritized craftsmanship, comfort, and long-term reliability, the SC 430 offered a distinctly different interpretation of the grand touring convertible formula compared to its European rivals. This particular example shows 84,570 miles and is finished in elegant Costa Azul Mica over a Camel interior, a sophisticated color combination that suits the car’s refined personality. Equipped with a rear spoiler and the Preferred Accessory Package, this SC 430 represents one of the final model years of Lexus’ retractable hardtop grand tourer. Adding to its exclusivity, only 328 units of the Lexus SC 430 were sold in the United States for the 2010 model year, making this a genuinely uncommon sight on American roads today. For buyers seeking open-air luxury with proven V8 dependability and increasingly rare production numbers, this Lexus presents a compelling opportunity.

As naturally aspirated V8 performance sedans become increasingly rare, the 2025 Lexus IS 500 F SPORT Performance Ultimate Edition stands as a fitting celebration of one of the industry’s last breed-defining sports sedans. Limited to just 500 units for North America, this example is even more special as it is #14 of 500 produced and shows a mere 174 miles from new. Finished in exclusive Wind paint over a Circuit Red and Black Ultrasuede interior, the Ultimate Edition combines Lexus reliability with a 472-horsepower V8 soundtrack that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in today’s marketplace. Enhanced with forged BBS wheels, unique interior appointments, a Mark Levinson audio system, and factory-installed accessories, this limited-production sport sedan offers collectors and enthusiasts a rare opportunity to own what may ultimately be remembered as one of Lexus’ greatest modern performance cars.
