Yes, better than previous, but I think even with the 18" 3GS stock wheels on the SC430, it would look better than this . . .

Just one question regarding the new PB. How are the UPS drivers going to fit any packages in that car?

The 2005 is my favorite despite the red interior.

I must say the Diamond Black paint of the 2005 PB edition is the best among all the SC430 special editions so far , too bad there're too much red inside which spoils it. It would be better if they make the interior in 2-tone black/red . . .

Does the new 06 have dimmed headlights?

It could be the poor lighting but there are two pics on autospies that show dimmed lights.

Interesting read from Lexus Europe site:

"The latest SC 430 is available in a choice of nine colours, including two new options, Red Metallic and Premium Brown, as well as three new standard colours, Premium Silver, Dark Grey Metallic and Premium Beige."

"Subtle changes continue on board with a slightly revised instrument binnacle and new colour combinations of the head lining and A pillar. There is also a new interior colour choice, Camel, joining the current Ecru and Black options. Two new wood grain finishes are available - dark Bird's Eye maple and medium brown Walnut. "

For more go HERE


So I guess Tiger Mica is an option on EU SC430

Oops I just read what I wrote. I was talkin about the inner portion of the headlight.
It looks like its smoked. It does not seem reflective and bright.

like "darkened" chrome <a la corolla type S>, it would look nice but I think it came out like that on that picture due to the lightning conditions <seems they took the pictures after hours= not all lights on>..

Does anyone have pictures of the NM sc is that msm or a different shade of silver and is it the same color red interior as the 2005 PB edition. And what is different about the interior of the 04 PB sc.
