alright boys (and girls 
) - I bought the SC and have been having a blast lately... A reason why i was late to reply; forgiven arent I? haha
I LOOOOOVE it.. certainly exceeded the expectation i had built over the 10 year period of wanting the SC
The car has not had a fair market value... I dont know why everyone bashes the SC's drive and handling; i mean Richard Hammond of BBC's Top Gear compared it to a Tiburon and said the Hyundai was a better sports car.. I like to think of the SC as a 'Sporty' Touring Convertible... It pampers you in every way, shape and, form mainting a smile on your face for ever second of your drive.
I love it, rides well; not too soft, not too hard with moderate bodyroll.. Steering is a little stiff and gives some feedback, again; not a sports car but its nice to the feel.
I absolutely adore it and am very happy with my choice... A little modification and this car will be perfect.
I will post some pics once i figure out how to upload pics from the new cam, and will discuss further plans... Just wanted to let you all know that its a done deal
Thanks for your support. You guys were @least 60% of the decision.

How do you know that 329 were built. How do you figure out the VIN vs the 329?
The 2010 is a great car...the Navigation features are great, and the voice activation works very well. I have XM in the car, and I like the way it is integrated with the stereo system ..Love the USB for my ipod.
Best of all.. it's the last year!
I bought mine brand new..and got the extended warranty taking me out a full 8 years. I plane to keep mine forever.
I agree there are not a lot of differences, but the differences are enough for me. Feel like I am missing some things though as far as the changes.
So it all depends what you need. I think $50,000 is a great price.

No, they would be sold in the US.
Mine was sold in Jan 2011, one of the last ones made in July 2010 and sold by the dealer in Jan 2011. I am trying to find the VIN of the last 2010 sold.

I'd be curious to know the total number of the various colors of SC430's sold from 2002-2010. Any place list these figures? Which was the most popular color? Black? silver? and the least color sold. I would assume it would be one of the Pebble Beaches or other specialty models. Don't want to include interior/exterior combos at this point.
