Toyota’s premium brand has finally presented its new 2009 Lexus IS 250C coupe convertible. Equipped with a three-piece folding roof made of aluminum, the car takes only 20 seconds to get its top dropped. The convertible, which was presented to general public yesterday at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, will go on sale in spring 2009 in the United States and will come back to Europe and the UK in summer.
Like most expensive coupe and convertibles do, the only body parts that the 2009 Lexus IS 250C shares with the four-door 2009 Lexus IS, is the vehicle’s hood, head lamps and door handles. The rest of the car was completely redesigned to make the convertible look more self-sufficient. Lexus says that the IS 250C will be equipped with the one and only 205bhp 2.5-liter V6 engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
