Last SC with red interior looked cheesy IMO, just like Corvettes. I had a silver BMW convertible with red interior, and it look great, because only seats and door inserts were red; everything else was black. The new PB needs to be like that. What I didn't like about my BMW was the wood color: NOTHING matches, other than black, unfortunately. Aluminum would, I guess, but doesn't go with the SC.
That red BMW interior grew on me, but I'm not a big fan of it either, especially on a luxury car. Anything more than seats and door inserts, and it's off my list. We'll see soon enough, I guess. Later guys.

Cant wait to see but i think the color may be silver if you look at the japanese lexus website the JDM sc430 comes in every color as the usdm model but it also has azure pearl some light green color and a second shade of silver not sure if the pebble beach edition will be white or not.

yup, i agree, red is "ok", but have to be done right. definitley not red everywhere like the 06 PB. my eyes almost bleed when i see the car

What if they did dark red. Remember the MR2 Spyder in 04 they had a phantom grey with dark red interior it looked good the combo was actually more attractive than the black red of the 05 PBE which i still liked.

Heres a pic of the phantom grey on dark red. Sorry there are no intrior photos but this at least shows the interior color on the roof. This would be a great color combo for the SC430.

dark red is nice, i like the kind of burgundy red on the m3 myself. i think it would look pretty nice on the sc430 as well. indeed i tried to "imagine" that color on white sc430.

Yes, I prefer burgundy red too, it looks classier

'Red' BMW interiors have always been more burgundy than red indeed, and that was exactly the red I was referring to. The red in Corvettes looks awful. But the worst offense of all is red carpet (yikes!). Hope Lexus does it right this time (seats and door inserts).

MSMLexIS

Well have to wait and see hopefully Lexus willl have pics and info up soon. And i hope my local dealer gets a PBE in so i can inspect it in person.

I checked with Sherwin-Williams Automotive, the manufacturer of "Starfire Pearl" , paint code 077 today.


Simply stated, the new 2007 SC 430 Pebble Beach Edition will be a WHITE* PEARL exterior with red leather upholstery and black floor mats (with red PBE logo).


* According to Sherwin Williams Automotive, the base coat for Lexus Color Code 077 (S-W#77842) will consist of the following color mixture, measured in grams:

WHITE 600 g
Violet 5 g
Blue 4 g
Yellow 1 g
Black 1 g
____

TOTAL 611 grams (or 98.2% WHITE base coat)

umm..... so it will be "whiter" than the normal white sc430?

i think it will look better if they have black foormats for the car....

Gojirra99

I think just black "floormats" is still not good enough, they should use black for the entire carpet areas . . .

oh you are right. now i am trying to remember my sc430, just the floormats is definitely not enough. probably the carpet being black as well. i think that would be a good match huh?

Will post a pic of my 2004 Soarer as soon as the sun comes up. (It's a rainy season here in Tokyo). It's Cosmo Silver with Red leather and carpet. Bought it because I loved the ext. color but red seats and carpet... didn't really like it at first, but it kinda grows on you.

Cheers,
Jason

Please do i have always wanted to see an actual picture of cosmo silver do you know if there is a US equivalent color to it. Is your car the same as our neiman marcus edition.
