Lexus is not often a brand associated with automotive lust, despite the company’s best efforts with cars like the SC coupes. So why not a convertible of its hot-selling IS sedan? The two-door convertible that made its U.S. debut at the 2008 L.A. Auto Show features a folding hardtop that cuts into luggage space, but makes for one fine looking convertible. It also promises all the goodness of the sedan, with good handling, responsive steering and fun rear-drive handling.
