Default Will I fit?

I currently drive a SC400 and have enough head room. I am 6'4 and am thinking of moving up to the 430. Thanks. Also, is there anything I should look out for before I buy?

Well, I'm not as tall as you and my (meager) hair brushed the head liner on all my SC400s. With the 430, I can even wear a baseball cap without brushing. The top is higher and thinner because of no moonroof. Also it seem that the 430 seats can be pushed down closer to the floor.

From what I can remember, there are a couple owners here that claimed they're 6 ' 3 " and can fit in this car without problem. I think it also depends on how long your legs are. You should just go to a Lexus dealer & sit in one to see how comfortable you are in it.

Talking You may barely fit in an SC430

I am the same height as you at 6'4". I do fit in the SC430. I can't say I am flush with room but I do barely fit. It you are comfortable in the SC400, you will definitely have more leg room in the SC430. I agree that you can set the seat lower. It is one of the rare two seaters besides a Porsche that I can fit into.

I am 6'2"" and body long, I only have a 31 1/2" inseam and I have no porblem in my sc430. My head has never touched the top and the wind is not a problem with the top down
