Default nice....ohhhh, never really studied the 2009 PB...but it is NICE!!!!

love the interior and floor mats...it appears that the interior is like a light gray with black...very suave with the mercury metallic exterior. Nice wheels too. I think these are the tourmalines, aren't they???

Strange.....the mats in the full cabin picture look black, but the picture of the mat itself looks almost blue-gray. I always thought they were black-black....to match the black/white contrast theme of the entire car.

Yes, those are Tourmalines.

There is not a 06 PB that I've seen in Dallas, believe me I look for them all the time. There are a couple of 2004 Blue, one or two 2007, I have the one 2005 and some 2008's and 2009's I'm sure.

There was a listing on eBay a few days ago for an extra set of PB camel mats. Just my recommendation based on my search for PB parts, mats, etc---BUY THEM NOW! In fact you could use your tan old mats for rainy days and use the new camel mats for "date night" or whenever you want to show off your car more.

Your car is SWEET. I'm falling more and more in love with all the PB's now that I have one. Yeah, the two tone interior on the 08 would have been pretty obnoxious on your car...the solid camel is very nice!

There were two listings on eBay for these mats. Not sure now...
+1 on all the PB owners responding to your thread. Hope we hear from more CL members. Good recommendation on picking up those mats when they become available on Ebay

My "BEST BUY" would be this one with 51k miles...$30,000...may be able to buy for under that and buy your own warranty...WHAT A CAR!!! WHEW!

There is a cpo one on www.cars.com after you look at the one for $30k. CPO would be great!!! more $$$, but look at the piece of mind.
The one for 30k is great, I'll sell my 04 before I get another to replace it, only have a two car garage that presently is filled , so my RX's stay in the driveway and the 430 out front on the street. Thankfully the neighborhood has good security so the cars are relatively safe. A PB is in my future

I think the 2008 with the two-tone interior was definitely the worst looking PB ever. You have to wonder what they were thinking with the color choices they put in that car.

yeah, looks a bit like a tabbycat inside! Perhaps that interior should have been in the tigereye? The blend of the two leathers on the 2004 and the 2009 are really neat-how they did some of the console in one leather and the seats, etc in another color.

What's really cool is that you can order the red seat covers, door inserts and dash leather all at sewell parts online if you wanted to DIY a Pebble Beach Edition! Very costly. About $6k for that interior with the CL discount...I added it all up and I was at like $5,000 but forgot the headrests! Ouch...those are expensive red headrests!!!

Default Good Problem

[QUOTE=PHXSC;4967753]LOL - I can give you an example:
Last weekend, wife and I stop at the local Circle K, and as I'm getting back in the car, an attractive lass gets out of her car parked next to mine, and as she walks by, says, "I love your car", loud enough for the wife to hear....
So I sit down, glance over to the frown on my wife's face and say, "What?"[/

Default 2004 PB it's called azure

The Black Diamond Pearl is definitely different!

In very light situations, it has a touch of blue and silver pearl in the black. Almost makes you think it's got some paint on it you ran over in the road!

This picture in the upper right hand corner of the rear quarter shows it best.

In most situations it looks like a black. Can almost (depending on how color blind you are!) look blue, dark green, purple or charcoal too! Very neat IMHO
