Ohh mate, that is a really great picture. The colour of the house and trees in he background really accentuate the lines of the car - and that red leather!
Im not partial on the pie plates - but you have the car polished like a diamond.
You have inspired me to try some other polish on mine and see if it comes up as good as yours.

The Black with red is gorgeous.
One of the problem with my silver beast is that it doesnt seem to shine like those darker colours. I have a matador red IS250 that looks so good when polished. I feel that polishing the silver SC has little reward. Perhaps I just need to find a polish that works for the colour.
Anyway, love the black and red.

Hey everyone! Just picked this up from my 87-year-old dad, who prefers driving his 1986 Ford F150 step side pickup. He asked if I wanted it, and I said I would pick it up soon. Well, my Accord threw its timing chain, so I decided to fly to Covington, Louisiana and drive the car to Colorado Springs last weekend. I have to say, these are pretty neat cars!
I see the owner of the black and red one has found the only drink you can put in the cup holders: a 12 oz can.

That is just outside of Amarillo, Texas on FM 1061. It is quite desolate! I must not have been steady with the cell phone in the low light. It's a tad soft in focus.
Here's a sharper picture at my storage unit where I dropped off some stuff from Covington.
I thought this was a rare car, but just now I met this guy!
He just bought his. It's the same year, 2002. His is just a tad better kept. Mine spent some time under pine trees, so I'm in the process of getting rid of the sap.

That is a great looking car Stich.
I have found that the cupholders are the right size for a Peroni or Bundy Rum and coke in a bottle.
Just like you, I thought its so nice to have this rare car. Two streets away i saw a dark blue one parked outside a house!

New SC owner
Hi
I am brand new to LEXUS and certainly SC, I purchased online (and have yet to see or drive it) a 03 SC 430, Blue with 130k , no accidents, lot of service records. The interior is a orange brown looking color, not sure about that just yet ….but excited and terrified. I have seen after purchase tons of reviews stating bad cars and even a few videos saying the worst card ever made. I am new to LEXUS but have to think these are haters and BS.

Congratulations on your SC purchase. According to all of us on this forum, what you read is from haters and BS. The more you get to know your car the more you will absolutely love it. Guaranteed and welcome to a fine and helpful group of like minded people.

New proud owner
Hi all ..
my 03 SC430
Blue exterior with the brownish/orange colored interior
Sony stereo came with it
some internal light system comes on during start up ( have a remote for it but not sure how to get it to work)
you can see the Lexus wheels on this do not look like the wheels that came with the 03 , but a Lexus wheel
it has a passenger air bag front/side air bag system. That I think may of been installed and not standard ????
dual cameras in the back ( not sure why two)
noticed a stabilizer bar, thick one under the hood (this standard?)
where I was hesitant, with mileage at 130k buying blindly .. I am happy I did it, this rides great ..
