Way before the LFA supercoupe came along, Lexus sold a diverse sort of coupe, the SC. Certain, by the finish of its life, it had morphed into a folding-hardtop convertible that was, effectively, Not Excellent, but in the mid-1990s, it was a stylish, upscale, and sporty piece. What much better name is there, then, to resurrect for the extensively anticipated production version of the wild LF-LC notion vehicle? None greater, and according to the Japanese magazine Holiday Auto, Lexus agrees.
Now, this is far from an official confirmation, but it makes a ton of sense. Lexus, having only come kicking, screaming, and Mercedes-Benz–mimicking into this planet only in the late 1980s, does not have a enormous amount of history to draw on. Tapping the SC name traces a lineage to preceding Lexus variety-topping 2-doors.
Much better still, whilst the initial-gen SC came with either a 3.-liter inline-6 or a 4.-liter V-8, and the second-gen SC430 came only with a 4.3-liter V-8, we expect the next version to arrive packing a 500-hp-plus 5.-liter V-7 An available hybrid powertrain with an electrically assisted V-6 appears likely, as well, as does a rip-snorting F model. The best existing estimates place the car’s arrival in 2016 as a 2017 model.
