Sports cars automakers have ascended the auto industry’s ladder to become some of the most popular and consumer friendly in the whole world.
Us roads are filled with mainly compact sedans and big bulky pick ups, trucks and SUVs. That's what's mainstream right now in the US, your daily commuter for the average person. A car that would go A to B just fine. But many of us want something with style and the power to go, we prefer cars with a character. Something that will reflect a part of our personality. A machine that is worth remembering for days to come. Lexus is a manufacturer that provides the three key ingredients for the perfect combination - power, style, reliability. We organized the fastest models and packages that rolled out with the LEXUS logo on their bonnet, Here's our list of :
"The Fastest 9 LEXUS cars !"
304bhp / 4.3L / 0-62 mph in 6.9 seconds / 155mph / 1742kg
This car just screams luxury ! Fluid style, powerful engine and decent cornering.
Japanese roadsters and sports cars tend to be lightweight, compact, highly agile, and as such, smaller in the engine department to keep the weight down. Take the Miata and the S2000 as prime examples of fine Japanese sports car manufacturing. The Lexus SC430, on the other hand, goes against the proverbial grain with a more American formula: a big 300 horsepower and 325 pound-foot 4.3 liter V8 sits up front, driving the rear wheels and pushed the car to 62 in about 6.9 seconds as per official Lexus estimates (and least in the 2002 spec, the year it was released.)
The SC 430 was long on luxury and features. There was just one trim level, and it came very well equipped with items like leather upholstery, genuine wood trim and a navigation system.
