The adrenalin of a 4.3 litre V8
Rekindle your love of driving as the 4.3 litre V8 with 32 valves accelerates you elegantly ahead. This all-aluminium V8 delivers 210kW of refined power, enhanced by Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) for advanced engine performance at all engine speeds. An Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS) optimises engine breathing at higher engine revs, for increased top end performance.
Intelligent 6-speed transmission
Feel the rush as the advanced technology 6-speed Super Electronically Controlled Transmission (ECT) fine tunes timing for seamless shifting, with optimum driveability and fuel economy.
Enhanced shock absorption for comfort and control
As you negotiate winding coastal roads, high performance mono-tube type shock absorbers ensure excellent responsiveness for remarkable road grip, plus improved comfort.
The precision of a rigid chassis
You'll feel a greater sense of responsiveness and crisp handling. Often convertible cars suffer from chassis flexing due to their lack of a fixed roof. So Lexus designers incorporated large cross sectional rocker panels and re-engineered structural members which resist twisting on corners. Braces beneath the floor at the front and rear achieve a significant increase in torsional stiffness, for precise handling.
