Will there be a downscaled version of the SC430 (Perhaps SC300/330)
Ok guys since we are having a bit of a debate on if there will be a SC300/330 offspring of the SC430.. Lets put it to a poll to see how our CL members feel..

Ok looks like our fellow CL members think we will be seeing a SC300/330 sometime soon.. Personally I am just looking forward to see new product out of Lexus.. My hope is that they at least put some nicer wheels from factory this time.. Sheesh Lexus help us out a bit.. We all don't have connections like Manaray..

SC330
Lexus will not introduce another varient of the SC until the sales of the current one "tops" out, and that will not happen with the current model that doesn't have a wide enough market appeal.
I'll wait for the SL400 myself.

I think that the factory would let the dealers know if this was the case and they have yet to include it in there plans for the next 4 to 5 years. However every other model and new model was included in there timeline at the last fireside chat here with the texas dealers. This leads me to believe that no 6 cyl version is coming.

Its not going to be next year.. no way.. 2004 cars are going to be here in a few short while and the only car lexus has for 2004 is the new rx and in 2005 we will most likely see the new gs... And in 2006 who cares by that time I will be driving something else

I think there will be a SC330 model soon.
it makes sense that the market needs Toyota to make a 6 cylinder SC to compare with cars like CLK320 Cabriolet or the upcoming BMW 6-series convertable.
