Default 2006 v.s 2007 SC 430

Hey guys, is there any differences of performance, options, etc between the '06 model and the new '07 models of the SC 430 that is coming out? Just curious. Thanks

They have a different Pebble Beach special edition for 2007, plus a couple of new standard paint colors, like a different white paint, blue paint etc. . . . . . that's what I'm aware of . . .

several months ago, earlier this year, Ii showed this guy my car and he liked the look of it. so he went out and bought for his wife an '06 SC430 for around 68K OTD in Norcal. The color was grey.

He said that he switched to Bridgestone PS non-run flats and the ride was much better.

he said that the '06 had the integrated bluetooth was helpful. It's his wife car so it'll be up to her if he lets him modify it for her.

They come from a line of beemer and benzos so this is a nice car for them.

Ok I have a 2007 but what is the Uniblade front wiper? Did the older models have dual wiper blades?

yup, 02-06 i believe they have dual wiper blades.

no clue why they went to only one in 07. i always think it looks funny on most other cars
