From fellow member Rockville!! Thanks Rock.
The 2006 SC430 will have a "refresh" of new dual headlights and pods, new bumpers, new tail lights that will likely use LED's. There will be a new interior called Camel. It will inherit the now familiar six speed transmission. Since wheels make all the difference those too will be revised. Yesterday I looked out the window and saw an Absolutely Red IS300 outfitted with the SC430 stock 18" wheels with the large plate center cap. We are considering taking the 5 spoke 18"s from the new GS430 and putting them on the SC430 as our own "refresh".

![Question](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
How official is this info on the 2006 SC430???
Is this a magazine speculation or our wish/desire for a refreshed look???
I just put a stop on my purchase of a 2005 SC430 based on this post.
The dealer said there was no news on this to happen.
Yes, I know they (salesman) will say anything to sell a car.

The quote from Rockville in the original post is a member of Clublexus & a Lexus sales consultant. You can pm him to inquire where he get those information if you like.

so with all these factors, i just don't think they would do the v6 version. at least it doesn't make sense to me

If they are doing a facelift for 06, then I don't think there will be a totally redesigned new SC until the 09 model year, the earliest may be for spring 08 as a 09.
