The SC430 has what I would term "Disney" lines. The look of that car is very over-engineered IMO...
...and the result is a car that doesn't know what it wants to be. I've seen a couple of them in person now and I can safely say it is not very attractive compared to the TT. Of course, attractiveness is subjective and to each his own.

very nice car in its own right but it's typical lexus. they don't design, they borrow
Lexus has never made an original 'design' yet. They've borrowed from everything, Mazda to Mercedes. Still a very beautiful car in many ways, although a little overpriced for what you get that too is typical lexus.

yuk
to each their own, but the 430 looks like it came out of a japanese sci-fi movie; the TT Porsche heritage is clear and unsurpassed in today's design. but then, I'm partial to 356s and pre-996 911s. ok, pre-993. ok, i have a 1988 911 race car. i'm biased. sue me.
