alright boys (and girls
) - I bought the SC and have been having a blast lately... A reason why i was late to reply; forgiven arent I? haha
I LOOOOOVE it.. certainly exceeded the expectation i had built over the 10 year period of wanting the SC
The car has not had a fair market value... I dont know why everyone bashes the SC's drive and handling; i mean Richard Hammond of BBC's Top Gear compared it to a Tiburon and said the Hyundai was a better sports car.. I like to think of the SC as a 'Sporty' Touring Convertible... It pampers you in every way, shape and, form mainting a smile on your face for ever second of your drive.
I love it, rides well; not too soft, not too hard with moderate bodyroll.. Steering is a little stiff and gives some feedback, again; not a sports car but its nice to the feel.
I absolutely adore it and am very happy with my choice... A little modification and this car will be perfect.
I will post some pics once i figure out how to upload pics from the new cam, and will discuss further plans... Just wanted to let you all know that its a done deal![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Thanks for your support. You guys were @least 60% of the decision.

The 2010 is a great car...the Navigation features are great, and the voice activation works very well. I have XM in the car, and I like the way it is integrated with the stereo system ..Love the USB for my ipod.
Best of all.. it's the last year!
I bought mine brand new..and got the extended warranty taking me out a full 8 years. I plane to keep mine forever.
I agree there are not a lot of differences, but the differences are enough for me. Feel like I am missing some things though as far as the changes.
So it all depends what you need. I think $50,000 is a great price.

Mine was sold in Jan 2011, one of the last ones made in July 2010 and sold by the dealer in Jan 2011. I am trying to find the VIN of the last 2010 sold.

I'd be curious to know the total number of the various colors of SC430's sold from 2002-2010. Any place list these figures? Which was the most popular color? Black? silver? and the least color sold. I would assume it would be one of the Pebble Beaches or other specialty models. Don't want to include interior/exterior combos at this point.
