This is starting to drive me nuts... you should be able to find ANYTHING on the internet within 30 seconds. I discovered the entire JDM Soarer brochure here:

Well, we had an actual NM SC430 owner report back in another topic... his label says 1D2 which is Thunder Cloud Metallic. That is it! I figured it would be a rarer color.

Hey guys, paint information for the 2007 Toyotas was released through the Toyota USA fleet page, but nothing on the 2007 SC yet. Does anyone have the scoop on the color availability for the 2007 model yet?

Just updated the graphic to reflect the 2007 Pebble Beach Edition in Starfire Pearl, which is also a 2007 IS color.

very nice seems like this read is not as "red" as the ones before? i like it. red on white, very nice!

though from the pics, i can't really tell the difference between the white on the PB and the white on normal sc430

Looks really good. Like how the black floor mats break up some of the red interior also thought the g spider wheels would br ugly on the SC but they look good. I guess this is the most distintive Pebble beach edtion so far and isnt this the last year for that.

I think it's probably the same red leather as before, though like the white paint, you cannot really judge from pics, you have to see it in person.
The black carpet makes it a little better, but they should have made the carpet on the 2 sides of the centre console black too.

totally agree, the black floormats help, but carpets around, might as well make them black, i think that would look even better

i wonder if i will run into one of these PB at showroom so i can look at them up close

2007 colors are now posted on the Lexus website. The chart has been updated. There are three brand new colors:
Black Sapphire Pearl (8U0)
Obsidian (212)
Starfire Pearl (077)

Black Onyx, Indigo Ink Pearl and White Gold Crystal are no longer available.

It appears that Starfire Pearl, the color on the PB Edition, will be available on the regular version.

Also, it appears that TigerEye Mica, the 2006 PB Edition color, will be available as a 2007 regular model color.
