11. Lexus SC300/400
The Lexus SC300 and SC400, produced from 1991 to 2000, were refined, rear-wheel-drive coupes that combined luxury with performance. The SC400 featured a 4.0-liter V8 engine, while the SC300 offered a 3.0-liter inline-six, both sharing a platform with the Toyota Supra. Despite their popularity among enthusiasts and tuners, Lexus did not introduce a direct successor after 2000, opting instead for the SC430 convertible in 2001. (hagerty.com)
