To trade or not to trade
I have a 2006 SC 430 with 70K. The dealership says they have someone wanting to buy my car/even trade for the new 2012 IC S. I need your opinions!! I don't like the body style on the new one as much. I might be interested in a newer model SC 430 with fewer miles. The color of mine rocks and that is what the customer is looking for. Do I give mine up?

sounds like a sales tactic, i have the same color and 11k miles and its not worth as much as a 2012 ISC, thats just the fact of the value. I think the ISC is ugly and I also own a 2IS. The SC engine is solid I think you should keep your car dont trade up for a newer version of the same car unless you can get your hands on the 2010 sc430.

I too have the same color and love it. My simple answer is don't do it. People think the SC is made for women, but the IS C is the most flamboyant of them all IMHO. Stick with the SC. It is more unique, rare, and MUCH better looking. Plus, V8 > V6.

There is no replacement for an SC except another SC. Yours is a beauty and still "young" comparatively speaking. Savor it. Every time I get in my car, I smile and feel very special. I bet you do too.

i'm sure anyone on this forum would pay you more then the stealer will give you as a trade.
take yoru car to a stealer and see what he offers you or see what he will give you out right no trade.
then post for- sale an see what offers you get.

70,000 is not a big selling point, and paint is cheap. I have a 2002 with less than 40,000 and it's not for sale because I can't think of anything to replace it with. Your car looks great, the color is wonderful; keep it.
