This comparison is perfect for me to give some info. I had an SC430 right before I bought my FR-S.

For a daily, I would say SC430. I miss having a convertible, with all the little creature comforts. It was a great car for me, and did great in the snow also with snow tires. The V8 is very nice and while the car weighs a lot, it beat it's fair share of cars such as 350z's, Mustang GT's, etc. I also got about 20mpg in the city.

I know some will knock it for being ugly, but I did just a few things to make mine better. Again, it was an awesome DAILY. I would take my FR-S over it any day for a track car, obviously. The SC430 is just more solid and well built. It better be for a $70k car.

I had no problems in owning it, and it has Lexus luxury and of course reliability. It's comfy, quiet, and a very nice overall car. The people that knock on it just have never owned or driven one. Mine had 130k miles and it still looked and felt brand new.
