Description

The Lexus SC, also known as the Toyota Soarer, is a grand touring sports car produced by the Lexus division of the Toyota Motor Company. Styled by Erwin Lui and Denis Campbell at Calty Design Research, the SC was designed to compete against luxury coupes from other marques. The SC 400 was the initial model introduced, powered by a 4.0L 1UZ-FE V8. The SC was discontinued in 2000, to be replaced by the next generation of SC.

This was Hot Wheels' first and only Lexus model for many years until 2023 with the introduction of the Lexus RC F GT3.
