2008 Lexus SC 430 prices and review

2008 Lexus SC 430 coupe
The distinctive 2008 Lexus SC 430 roadster is powered by a muscular V8 engine, even though sheer performance is not its strong suit. An optional Pebble Beach Edition trim and equipment package offers an additional level of luxury. Like several competitors, the SC 430 comes with a power-retractable hardtop.
2008 Lexus SC 430 review
Viewed as a luxury car first and a sporty convertible second, the 2008 Lexus SC 430 fares reasonably well. But if you're looking for a convertible sports car with sharp handling and aggressive performance, most of the offerings from German's luxury automakers will serve you better.

Lexus LF-A Roadster Concept

The engineers and designers at Lexus continue to use their groundbreaking Lexus LF-A premium sports car concept as a medium for expressing their ideas about what a high-performance sporting vehicle not only can be, but should be. In this latest expression of the LF-A, they have removed the car's top to create a high-performance roadster.

The Lexus LF-A Roadster is based on the sturdy yet lightweight carbon-fiber and aluminum body used for the LF-A coupe, which helps maintain the structure's strength and rigidity even without a top.

Like its coupe counterpart, the Lexus LF-A Roadster is powered by a high-revving V10 engine that approaches 5.0 liters in displacement. The V10, capable of more than 500 horsepower and test-track speeds greater than 200 mph, is mounted in front of the passenger compartment but behind the front-axle centerline in what the LF-A's engineers refer to as a "front-mid" configuration.
