Key FOB question
My searches aren't yielding fruitful results. Does the SC430 even use a keyless FOB/engine push start like a GS350? If so, what year did it start?
EDIT: I've searched using google, but it seems to me that all the keys have a physical key for starting the car.

It depends on what you mean by "distinctive". Yes, there are differences but not a whole lot. AZKaty or SCDROPTOP probably will weigh in here with the expert knowledge (Katy - first hand, SC - research hound). The radio changes some and I think there are a few other minor changes. But there aren't many and nothing earth shattering.

2010 nav is ALOT better than previous years which was GEN3-GEN4, you can buy a sc430 with a Gen 2/3 and upgrade to Gen 4 but you can not upgrade to Gen6 (SC skipped Gen 5 which is what I have in my IS250). You can add aux with 160 bucks and a SLU unit thats plug and play on all models pre-2010. I guess it depends on what your needs are and what your budget is. The car from the outside looks the same.

I got out my 2010 SC brochure and this is what is says:
"USB and auxiliary iPod/MP3/Windows Media Audio (WMA) port Bluetooth Technology
Bluetooth audio profile for wireless integration of compatible music players with in vehicle audio system controls."
I believe all it means is full iPod/MP3 integration for devices that are compatible.
I drove a 2010 IS250 not too long ago and it was fully integrated as well-showed tracks on the screen, etc.
Katy-can you confirm?

That was taken right from the Lexus link I provided.
