SC430 vs IS-C
How fast do their roofs go up/down?
What are some cool features on the IS-C that the SC doesn't have?
Can you open/close the IS-C roof while moving?
And can a 6'3 person fit in them (or at least the SC) without the closing roof banging their head?
Can you please make comparisons between the two. Thanks

There are quite a few 6'3" or above owners in the SC430 forum, one is even as tall as 6'7" IIRC and have no problem with the car, he posted a picture of himself next to his car too.
So I don't think it's a problem for most drivers that are quite tall, but it also depends on the length of your legs relative to the body, you really have to sit in the car yourself to see if you're comfortable in it ...

1) new is-c i don't know. the sc430 it's about 30 seconds, on the slow side for today's standard
3) opening / closing the top when moving? why would you want to do that, it's a horrible idea. hard top convertible will let you do that, the weight and wind will kill the system
4) height is not as issue like andrew said. you should be adjust it to make you fit comfortably in most cases, as long as you are the one in the front.

.
most soft top you can operate them when it's under 30mph. hard top, horrible idea.
and if you look at cars from same manufacturer.
1 series = soft top = operate at under 30mph
3 series = hard top = operate around 4-5mph (something like that)
must be for a reason

again, soft top vs hard top, VERY VERY different. hard top = a lot heavier
