Default Question about white SC430's

Were any offered with black interior in 02-03? Or any other years?

I don't believe this combination was offered for the first model year (02) in the U.S., not 100 % sure for 03.
It's available in subsequent years I think according to the Lexus website, but from what's posted in this forum, they seldom build this combination for the U.S. & usually has to be special ordered from the factory, which means a wait of at least 3 month . . . They are very rare that's for sure . . .

Yep, we do not have enough white SC430's here.
best of luck shopping for one and hope to see you here shortly. You know, red and black look good too.

I actually have never seen this combo.

I like the white SCs with saddle interiors though...

i believe yeah! has this combo, and that's the only member here with that. before that i have only seen white on black once on ebay or autotrader i forgot

when i got my car (white on saddle), i spent the longest time trying to look for white on black without any success. basically from what i gather (nationwide), lexus doesn't make this combo unless you custom order

Yeah, I agree. I prefer white w/saddle but it's my gf's car so she wanted white w/black. Oh well, at least that means it'll have a higher resale value due to it being rare, hehe!...Err, I hope so.

It arrived at the dealership a few days before we decided what color combo to get so no custom order here. Oh, you mean this Henry:

Because, sometimes, it's nice to spend $3k on something useless, than using that money for a better good like donating to charities.

To honor their decision, I'll kick a small orphan or homeless person on the street the next time I think of his car...
