Talking New 430 owner!

I just bought a 2006 sc430 and can't stop driving it. I love this car! It only has 28,000 miles and is in perfect condition. I even love washing it. Does this feeling ever go away? I'm hoping not. I just became a member of Club Lexus and have enjoyed reading the threads, very informative.

Congrat's and welcome to the forum. The folks here are a wealth of knowledge and very helpful. The SC is a car second to none and I love my car like no other, I've had over a hundred vehicles in my day and my SC is the best by far! I love driving it and my wife grabs it when ever she can. Take some pic's and post them so we can all admire your new ride.

Gutz13, welcome to the forum. Good choice. I believe the 2006 is the best value convertible you can buy.

Congrats on the new SC and welcome to the forum. Got an '07 six months ago. No, the smile hasn't gone away yet and yes, detailing is still fun! Get those pics posted up so we can all see your new toy. Enjoy!

Welcome Guts13, had mine five years now and I still look back every time I park it and smile. If you are into modding it you will get plenty of idea's on this forum and you will need deep pockets once you start.
Good luck, enjoy.
Best regards
Steve

Welcome to the forum Gutz13. I've had mine for 5 years and still love. Being on the forum helps keep up the excitement also, as you get to share your experience (and others) about the car.

To upload pictures, you have to click on "Go Advanced".

At the top of the window you write your post in, is a paper clip icon. Click that and a new upload window will pop up. click browse and go to the folder you have your photo's in, double click the photo and it's path will appear in the upload box. You can do this five times on one post. When you have chosen all you pictures click the upload button and wait. It can take a while, so be patient. When they have all uploaded click 'preview post' at the bottom of the window and check it is okay. Then click 'submit post' and you are done.

Remember to reduce the size of your photo's to about 400kb.

Best regards
Steve
