I have a 2002 SC 430 which is in near perfect condition. But I would like to look into possibly upgrading it to features that the 2010 has if practical. Any ideas?

You can mostly upgrade the cosmetic stuff like 06+ bumper, head & tail light, wheel, latest NAV, aftermarket bluetooth/aux port. Maybe you can get the 2010 audio head unit that's without the tape deck.
One thing extremely hard to upgrade is 5-speed to 06+ 6-speed.

The 2002 wiring harnesses will not be compatible with the 2010 radio head unit. The 2002 sound system is mostly independent of the NAV unit, whereas the 2006 (?) and up are more interdependent.

Okay thanks for the info. There is nothing there that interest me. But good to know.

Watch out for speed bumps (heck, watch out for a dime laying in the road with that clearance!)

I'd say don't bother. I have been driving my '02 SC since the car came out, and although I sometimes think it would be nice with bluetooth or with that "keyless" thing, I find the car a gem and a joy and practically perfect in every way.

I agree with you tfilcher. I have looked at other sports cars and in my opinion none of them compare with the SC430 for beauty, performance, and value. I love the inexpensive service calls. I have had mine since 02 and have bought a new radio antenna, 2 interior overhead lights, and a truck strut which was under warranty.
