The Lexus SC430 Base for 2007
A lot has been said about the Lexus SC430 for 2007. As Lexus's entry in the convertible market the SC430 (and in this case specically the Base version) has maintained a solid reputation. The 2-door SC430 is especially appealing to wide market segment, making it a perfect car to help Lexus as a brand in general.
Performance
The restyled SC430 Base is equipped with a Toyota 4.3-liter 8-cylinder engine that utilizes a total of 32 valves. The engine is paired with a Toyota 6-speed transmission. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Lexus.
The fuel system for the 2007 SC430 is a traditional SFI, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 19.80 gallons.
Steering control is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The SC430 has power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.
SC430 Base Statistics
The SC430 is 178.50 inches long, 72.00 inches wide, and 53.10 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 103.10 inches. It is able to seat 4 comfortably.
The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $65,455 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of $56,945. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 2-door Convertible.
The standard warranty period for the SC430 is 48 months, or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. This is standard in the convertible market.
Fuel Efficiency
The SC430 Base received a miles-per-gallon rating of eighteen in-city driving and twenty five when it came to long-distance. Being a gas-powered non-green car, this was subpar.
Conclusion
The 2006 model began the promise of the Lexus SC430. The 2007 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Lexus hopes that the SC430 Base will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
