A Brief History of the SC Platform:
The Lexus SC line debuted in 1991, created to capture the growing luxury coupe market with Japanese precision and design ingenuity. The first-generation SC (the SC300/SC400) was lauded for its smooth powertrains and innovative styling, earning a loyal following. In 2002, Lexus launched the second-generation SC430, a bold step forward with its all-in-one design philosophy-melding coupe, convertible, and luxury cruiser into a single, elegant package. Designed with influence from European coastal touring and built with world-class craftsmanship, the SC430 became a symbol of understated luxury. It was equipped exclusively with a retractable hardtop and every comfort feature standard-making it not just a car, but an experience.
This 2002 model, the first year of the SC430's introduction, remains a standout in both condition and provenance. With its ultra-low mileage, recent full dealership service, and luxurious specification, it offers exceptional value for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
