Which is better: Lexus IS250C or recent Lexus SC430? I like them both!
I am looking for a second car that will do 5000 miles a year.
Has to be a CC (metal roofed convertible). The SC430 has a magnificent interior and great touring performance, but is a bit ugly and is greedy.
The IS250C is modern, more funtional but is slower and a bit bland inside.
I have read your review of the IS (many thanks) and looked in great detail at both cars but, hell, I like them both!

Definitely go for the IS250C. Used now from about £22,500.
