for the sc430 here in the US, it shuld be standard. there is pretty much no options for sc430 here in the US, all fully loaded.

the pics you saw, probably they are the sc430 in japan? maybe they have different setup?

They're standard equipment on my '04. But I don't even know if the darn thing works, or even where to turn it on . That kind of feature is usually offered with 'cold' packages, like block warmers, etc.; I was surprised to see it as standard equipment. At least I got the heated seats this time; were unavailable in my area when I bought my SC400, GS400, and LS400. I honestly don't care about the washers; one less thing to go wrong. Later.

I wash my car offently and don't find this option is useful, it just smear out the dirt and gets the car dirty. The car looks sleeker w/o it.

Default 2006 Sc430

I Went To The Dealer , I Saw A Brochure On The New Pb Edition , Nice Brown

I Was Thinking Of The New Red , But It Is A Metallic And I Didnt Like It, Looks Like Last Years Toyota, So I Will Probly Buy The Pearl With The Ecru Int , Dealer Is Trying To Get To Go With The Saddle, No Scuff Mark's Etc

He Offered 2500.00 Over Invoice , He Needs To Move Some Units, Now If We Can Only Agree On What Invoice Is..........

Gee-bee


Any Comments On The Light Color Int./ Over The The Saddle

I Would Like To Hear From You All ?

I would personally go with the saddle, and knock off another grand.
Good luck.

Can you reproduce brochure color photos of the new 2006 (Tigereye Mica) "Pebble Beach Edition" and post here?

well depends on what "invoice" number he's showing you, then we can tell you if it's a good price. if it's around 58k i thnk you can go for it

and i would take saddle over ecru. white interior is just such a pain to keep clean

have you considered getting the sc430 somewhere in the LA area where competitions are better? and probably lower price?

Default 06 sc430

I'am making the deal in oregon , since I have a house there too, NO sales tax and the four year plate/tag is 128.00

I think the 58k figure is a place to start

Thanx for all the replys.......

That's a great name for a Lexus dealer
Pricing will also depend on how large the dealer is.......send a quote request to the next nearest dealers and have them compete.
Good luck.

but you still have to pay the tax if you want to register it in Ca right ? unless you have a permanent address in Oregon.
It's that way up here, where only the province of Alberta has no sales tax.

Default Photo of New PB Edition

I just received the mini-brochure from the dealer on the special edition. The pictures are primarly sketches with one photograph of the car. I think the car looks great but the interior is just OKAY. Also, I was also told by dealership that on 8/19 the picture of the car will be posted on Lexus official website. How true that is I don't know.

If it was me I would go with the Ecru interior and put some black carpet floor mats down in the car, because the dash is black and I think it would be a good match. Now I think that the YELLOW WOOD on the 05 model was very feminine(nothing wrong with that). Now that the 06 Ecru has the Walnut I think the white/ecru would go together nice.
