If you don't mind divulging - who is your carrier? My agent (multiple carriers) said we could get insurance - but no full coverage with any of their companies.
I think he just added PB emblems, etc., to a regular SC. If you are happy with the car, that's all that matters!

There's no way that I know to identify it as a PB or not via vin number.
I did input the vin in drivers.lexus.com it shows as a 2006 in Onyx Black from factory. there should be some way of identifying the original interior color. As far as I know RED was not an option in 2006. RED was the interior color of the 2005 & 2007 PB.
2005 PB Black Diamond paint / Red (Pimento) interior
2006 PB Tiger Eye Mica paint / Camel interior
2007 PB white paint / Red (Pimento) interior.
Regardless. I'm not aware of any Lexus SC430 standard or PB that came with a Red or anything other than a black dashboard.
The car you have is beautiful.

The Club LExus VIN lookup tool definitely dates the car as a 2006, meaning that it is not a PB given that color combo.

It does say it's black. I will pick his brain tomorrow and find out what the heck it really is. He did say to me you will never see another one like it.
