Default Pearl White SC Day in Dallas Yesterday!



It's funny when I was debating to buy the 2006 pearl white SC I thought that I saw a lot more white than black SC's in Dallas and obviously no Pebble Beach Black ever, so one of the reasons I made the decision is because the pearl white SC is so common in Dallas.

Case and Point: Yesterday! Three different pearl white SC's I spotted in Dallas. I actually sought out one of them--my buddy let me talk him into some new FOOSE wheels on his so I came over to his house to check them out. Some real beauties here! Check it out! Such a pretty car. Glad I got my black though---every one was driven by a lady! How do I know? Scrunchies on rear view mirror, female sunglasses on visor....lol.

Stop temping me scdroptop. I live in Carrollton so basically next to you. I'm watering the money tree to get an SC430 around next December. I saw a 2009 sc430 PB at Sewell/Dallas and it stole my heart. I'll be coming from an 2007 ES350.

But basically stop temping me!!!

NICE!!!! Oh man you shouldn't have told me that!!! he he

PM me or give me a shout when you are ready to start looking-I love spending other people's money! We'll find you a sweet SC within (or not within he he) your budget and hopefully fullfill your wish list.

We have a lot of pearl/ecru around here, barely seen any pearl/saddle or pearl/black. Most 2006+ are pearl/camel. BEST deal around was the 2006 I passed on in Guthrie, OK (about 2.5 hours straight north on 35) for $28,500 with 51k miles. Check out my other posts on it. Beautiful car!!! It still needs a home...I can hook you up!!!

You'll love the SC. it's addicting...and you can't live without it even if you try (like I did)

Hey SCDROPTOP, you want to see white, go to Naples, Palm Beach, or Sarasota FL, it's a white and silver parade !! Gucci and NM eyeglass holders, a dead giveaway for female driver. Your first pic with the pie plates, makes the others look outstanding !!

the Foose wheels make the car look like a real hotwheels car! Nice I like the lip...maybe a drop would make it look better? I have this dilemma on if I find some 20" nice rims I'm going to have to drop the car from keeping it looking awkwardly tall...hmmm...

My buddy has the same dlimma as I do with his 20's on the car. He lives near two sets of very rough railroad tracks and doesn't want to mess up his rims/suspension or rub.

I cringe every time I go over my two tracks with all my 20"s and 22"s on my cars and cannot imagine the feel if the SC is dropped. Plus i'm worried about affecting my 3 year CPO. So...right now I am not going to drop. When I want to drop the car-I sit in it! 200lbs of pressure puts a nice 1/4" drop on it lol!

speaking of temptations...

tromly-I bet there are some hotties in those gucci sunglass cars in Naples! LOL Watch out---there is another triple venti cappucino 06 PB for sale on eBay!!!

I saw one of those "root beer" '06s with my GF and she said it was the most hideous color "even with how smooth the SC is"...personally I liked it thought I doubt I'd buy it myself...then again I'd probably like an SC in any color...

First time I've ever heard the term "root beer" applied to the 06 PB. I remember how MB was big into " tobacco brown " back in the 70's and early 80's. Guess the color is not for everyone

People get paid doing what you're doing now scdroptop. They're call car brokers.
