Probably looks cool with the top down and the door closed.

Looks a bit weird, but that might just be the ultimate highway cruiser.

Looks like it was done correctly, and I think it is quite awesome looking. A convertible SC400 popped up on NY Cragslist and when I contacted the guy it was a junkyard and over the phone after I asked if he still had the car he yelled in the background "did we scrap that shlt box lexus"... His voice made it hilarious, but you could just tell from the pics it was a hack job. This looks really good honestly. Convertible top is not cheap.

Not a huge convertible fan but this looks decent compared other cars I have seen. Any pictures of the top down?

It's pretty ugly but it looks like a clean job. It almost looks factory.

It looks similar enough to a Miata top that I almost went out to take some measurements, but there's no way it could be. The SC is so much wider, and the doors so much longer. Maybe Robins did up a custom top based on the Miata design?

If the body and chassis was reinforced properly, I'd hit it!!!, not a bad looking sc, I bet it would look dope lowered, tucked and nice set of wheels
