Default My new (2005) Pebble Beach arrived today!

My Pebble Beach 2005 SC430 arrived today! Black with Pimento Red interior shipped from clear across the country. Had to have it. Looks great and drives great. Am I excited? Yes! I am already wondering if I will soon get tired of the red. I LOVE it now and this is the reason I bought this particular car, but wondering if anyone who has the car tired of the color after awhile. Just curious. Thanks!

Oh, and by the way... Woohoo!

Good for you! Can't respond to the red interior but the Pebble Beach is a nice Limited Edition to own! I'm sure you'll love it. First SC430?

Default SDFAITH congrats! I own a 2004 PB and live in MA too.

I bought my 05 PB over this past winter from Herb Chambers Porsche in Boston. 1 owner car with 41k miles. I was thrilled with the condition and the idea of not having to ship a car in from the west coast. The rest of my fun hobby cars having been shipped in from the left coast.

Where do you live in MA? We should plan on attending Japanese car day at the Larz Anderson in Brookline www.mot.org next summer.

Welcome, enjoy and post pics!

Yes. The only other sports car I've owned is a Porsche Boxster. Nice, but I can't see how to compare the two. Night and day. Thanks.

Base model and looking forward to adding some mods come spring! Open to suggestions. Rims need a little touch up, so considering something different. Open to suggestions on how to take the car to another level!

Congratulations on your new acquisition. You're going to enjoy it. Of the few that I'm aware of with the red interior, they never stopped liking it.

Be sure to post some pictures!
