the original 2002 SC430 had 300 hp and 325 ft lbs of torque. This apparently dropped in later models.

This page needs correction. Road and Track comparison test "Wind, Sun, and Stars" gives the Lexus sc430 0-100 mph as 15.0 seconds, and the 1/4 mile at 14.6 seconds at 98.5 seconds.

yeah, theres no way the 0-100kmh is 5.1, when the best 0-60mph is 5.9, so its prolly round 6.3.

Anyone know the source for the 5.1 0-100kmh time? Because everything I have found states 5.9 or 6 seconds
