Do you have a different tire size than stock? I have the same wheels, but mine looks like it has more rubber, yours looks better, lol. What tires/size are those?

Exterior color : White
Interior color : Black
Any modifications : Hub caps upgrade
Millage: 37K
Located in Stafford VA.

Looks like you landed on a real winner! Beautiful trim and spotless interior, you are lucky to have found a 2005 with such low miles. Let me know what you end up going with if you decide to add on a back up camera, new stereo set-up. I have a 2005 as well, white with camel interior, 88k miles.

Thanks... The car already came with a SL3b-L Bluetooth kit installed so I will keep it that way for now. The car looks and drives like new. I ended up paying 19K which I think is not too bad.

Beautiful Cariduro24, did you also find yours in MD as well? Looks minty fresh.

I'm just south of Stafford in Richmond, so welcome to the club.

Hello! I am glad to find other Lexus SC430 model lovers such as myself! I call my beauty "Pearl". She has the Egyptian Sand Pearl exterior paint with saddle-bag colored interior seats and wood-grain details. I have included pictures to this thread.
I have the Mark Levinson audio system and no modifications made to the car since my purchase May 2017. It was a birthday gift to myself! I want to know if anyone else in the Raleigh-Durham North Carolina area know of any charity rides or vacations, picnics in the near future?
I have also been a member of a bike club so I am familiar with their missions. Just hoping there was some activities of the same for this group and in this part of the country. IF Not, Let's start one!

I'm glad to be on board and hope to find useful information regarding this model vehicle. I am re-furbishing some minor parts of the car such as headlights, undercover body protector and re-finishing the wheels. I am seeking to get a new paint job in 2020 if all goes well. Seeking any advice on custom paint venues in North Carolina if anyone knows of a place. Thanks, and I look forward to many conversations in the forum.

Welcome to the forum MrIanB and congratulations on your acquisition. Looks like it was well treated and even has clear headlights.
