D' I think I am going to leave the car alone for my wife other than maybe HRE 542's.....Since it's a Pebble Beach edition I don't want to screw around with the suspension or body of the car. The last special edition "Neiman Marcus A.k.A Silver Bell is still a highly desired car that people are willing to pay sticker for and then some.....

If you get A/C, you can get add-on lips which can be removed, as can coilovers. So there no excuses! Post pics after mods,

Thank you very much

jcramair1,

Please post pics with the 542s on it. Consider the 542Rs though. I just put 540Rs on my blue SC430. I was looking at the 542s hard though. I think they will look awesome on the car. Michelin Pilot sports make the ride so smooth and quiet compared to the run craps you can't believe it. You might consider those as well. There is definitely better handling with the car too. Good luck!!!!

Talking Sweet....

Congratulations! Love love love the Pebble Beach Edition. The Azure Blue is awesome and exclusive only to the Pebble Beach car. And that dark marble-looking wood is soooo cool. Also, take note of the skid plates inside the door jamb. You know how it lights up upon entry? It glows with a blue light instead of the traditional orange.

I was told when I purchased this car that there were 400 beong made, but someone else told me that only a 100 were produced? Do you know Longo which # it is.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

It's 400 in the Pebble Beach and it was 100 in the Silver Bell in the Nieman Marcus catalog last year.

What is on the side of the front fender? Is it a turn signal? I don't have anything on the fender of my '02.

I think that's a special badge that says "Pebble Beach Edition". I'm not sure, but I think I remember that. I was wiping my wife's drool off the one at our dealership when we had our SC in for service!!!

The side marker says Pebble Beach Edition.
