Default 2010 Lexus SC430 "The Eternal Jewel" Edition

For the record, I am not a big fan of those special editions.

Just happen to find one and it is modified. lol

WOW!!! Talwang you are awesome!!! Thank you. Incredible pics. Do you know how long I've been looking for these?? Incredible. I wonder why the top on this one is not black instead of silver...the two colors don't have much contrast. Maybe better in person-hard to tell. Thanks for the huge contribution. If you see any more please post. This completes the special edition thread...just need to find a caroline herrera in person.

Eternal jewel....totally ugly color combo for the interior. The cream n red does not flow with the white exterior. I'll stick with my all red interior from the neiman Marcus edition. After running with the same car for 9 years they ran out of color ideas.

Saw this 04 PB driving in the parking lot at Costco in Plano while I was lined up for gas. I tried waving at him but he didn't see me.

Nice!!! I've seen that car several times in DFW. One in Tarranty County and was for sale at an Arlington dealer for quite some time and several times in Plano/N. Dallas and once at Park Place (I posted pics too).

What's amazing about the 2004 PB is that no one knows much about it, but the interior is REALLY cool with the black piano wood and the ecru with the special mats/badges etc. I don't like baby blue or light blue for the record, but I love this car...maybe I'm PB-biased! Love the blue tinted pie plates too! LOL

Very nice! A&W root beer should have totally contracted with Lexus for car and made it the A&W edition! LOL I love this car...beautiful color in person. The pearl is amazing. Pics don't do it justice!

This is a wonderful thread of history highlighting the special edition SC430's...

Since I've owned mine heads are turning as I drive by...not too many of these in New England.
Can't wait for it to get warm enough to put the top down...!!!

I'm new to the site found it recently after having bought a new RX 350. Came across this thread on the SC 430's and glad to see it.
We bought ours on Dec 6, 2006. Its a 2007 PB and at the time the sales person could not tell me the production numbers. This is the first I have ever ssn the numbers ! We just turned 3,000 miles on it.......rain/clouds, it does not leave the garage. Of course here in Mich winter is out also.
Thanks
for this thread.
Dave

OMG! You found it!!!! I knew either you or I would find real pics of the car soon! Great job thanks for posting! I know you don't like these, but I'm in love with the two tone seats! Wish this one had the tan or black roof.
