nothing special and a lot of work im sure.
the sc400s look is starting to get a little dated.
i like the look of the new sc430 except for the rims.

I would definately get a SC430, I would love the 430 now over the 400. Although the 400 still is awesome and timeless, definately not worth the $$$ to convert it, the Japanese converted ones look better than that blue one does.. all done up matching leather, but still would rather have a 430

With top up...I think Cadillac Eldorado with velor top lol.
I disagree on the SC400's look being outdated. Bubble eyes.....longer coupe kind of car.....just like the bubble eyes on the GS...and are you telling me not every type of car maker is going for that longer 2 door style...(Chrysler Sebring, Stratus, Dodge, etc...., Pontiac Grand Am GT)

Default Yes..not dated

Yeah, the japanese convertible is WAY better.

But as far as dated looks go.
The new generation of cars will get MORE outdated faster than the SC400 will

Looks much better than the SC430!! I was getting crazy ideas about chopping the top of of mine and now they are only half crazed! A lot of work yes and would probably look half-baked at best if I did it. Came from the factory, did it?
