I would accept that if this were the previous SC300/400 because it was a fantastic car. Not this one though, as a car its far from the best performing Lexus and as a luxury convertible...its absolutely outclassed and outdated. Would you pass over a new Mercedes SL over a Lexus SC430...if you do I suspect you're 70+ years old.

Redesign it or drop it, in the 21st century nobody gets away with outdated vehicles anymore even GM and Ford update their trucks on a now 4-5 year cycle when before it could take almost 15.
