Great job Doug.

1) Which three Lexus models offered a manual transmission?
2) Which Lexus model year had the longest running cycle and how many years?

1). Why was the 1SC never a convertible? Was it to be a convertible? What is the story?
2) What special edition Lexus in 1997 wheels became standard in 1998?

Thumbs up cool thread
What Lexus never had an equivalent model in Japan? (Hint: It was also the shortest-lived Lexus).

1) The SC was designed as the Lexus Luxury Sports Coupe that was designed at Calty in Newport Beach. The 1st Gen SC never was a convertible because cutting the top off meant killing the car's structrural integrity and quiet ride. Which is why they redesigned the SC from the ground up as a hard top convertible for 2002.

2) The Lexus LS400 Coach Edition 5 spoke machine finished alloy wheel.

Don't know the answer to the 1st question, but for the 2nd one it's the Coach Edition for the LS400. Here are pics of the Coach Edition '97 LS and regular '98 LS respectively:
