Towing Lexus SC430
I just had a 2020 custom trailer built for my SC430 in July. Of course after I got it it had to be tweaked and I got that done. It loads and tows perfectly. 15 ft long tandem 3500 lb axles, rear electric brakes, extra long ramps, matching spare tire mounted on the front of the trailer, diamond plate steel deck, and E track with straps. We decided to get rid of the car so the trailer is for sale in Fort Worth Texas for $3,500 firm. Texas license registration July of 2020.

Very few vehicles can be towed with the drive wheels on the ground.

trailer for SC 430
I’m sorry but I did not make it out to the rv barn today. Not feeling well but will do it Monday. Here is the only one I have so farhttps://photos.app.goo.gl/ZRVNqRcVFcQe4EQe7
The trailer titled weight is 1600 lbs and the SC430 weighs 3,840 lbs which equals 5440 lbs.
BTW, I got rid of my original GPS and installed a Garmin 760LMT with lifetime updates in its place which works much better and it replaced the back up camera I had like yours. It fits perfectly and works better than original. Looks and acts like it was installed by the factory except that it does not turn the radio down when announcing directions. Of course it has much better GPS backup camera and bluetooth phone.
My phone number is 682-553-3582.
