Hmmm... Opaline Pearl is becoming an issue again. The Lexus website isn't showing it available for 2010.. although I was told that it was replacing Twilight Amethyst in January of 2009. Anyone know any info about this?

Hmmm... it turns out that no SC430s were ever imported in Opaline Pearl. I'm not sure what happened, but I guess the people-that-be changed their minds.

Talk about uniqueness, the paint color 6U8 doesn't make it to the US market.
A potential color for PB edition.

I like the color, but it is a little too trendy for hybrids right now.

not my cup of tea, but how could you not love any colored SC?

I think it would be GREAT in a PB edition with a nice brown interior and dark wood. That color used to be SOOOOOO popular with Hondas in late 80's to mid 90's. I remember one time I had my 1990 Accord EX Coupe in that color with burgandy interior and so did about 50,000 other people at that time! LOL--never bought that color again and was extremely bored with the color, wishing I bought the black, white or teal colored Accord!

i wish they'd make all JDM paint and interior options available here. but i guess that would make the PB editions obsolete.

Speaking of PB, a great guy named Tom just scanned his 2007 PBE brochure and sent it over to me so I could include it in the Toyota Reference SC brochure archive. You can view it here:

Is there only one "white" paint for the 2002 SC430? It looks like a Starfire Pearl but by this chart that wasn't available....looking for correct "plugs" for front bumper license plate holes...any inputs? Thank you
