I've been stalking this section for about a year now and dreaming about a 2009 Pebble Beach Edition.

Well... today I picked her up. She's beautiful with less than 9k miles.

Pictures to follow!!!

Congrats! Did you get a CPO car at a dealership? I know there are several 09's that have been out there.

Here are some crappy teaser pics for the time being - weather looks to be in the 100s this weekend here in Dallas. Hopefully it'll be comfortable to drop the top at nights or in the early mornings.

Welcome to the club and to ownership of a great car. Enjoy.

Early mornings or late evenings with the a/c blowing are your best shots this time of year here in the Dallas area.

congrats!!! I have a 2005 Pebble Beach. You'll love having one of the rarer cars of an already rare car! I haven't seen too many PB's period in Dallas, and only a couple of the 09 mercury metallic. Did you get it at Park Place? They had one not too long ago. I love the two toned ecru/black interior. The black/espresso birds eye maple is nice too on that car. I got to drive one and loved the black stitching on the tan seats too!

Did you get the extra goodies like the two sets of Pebble Beach Mats and the Tumi Luggage? The 2009 might have had the Calloway clubs with it? I can't remember.

Also, there is a 2009 Pebble Beach Edition Brochure on eBay right now you might want to ****** up---would be a great collector's item for you!

http://cgi.ebay.com/2009-Lexus-SC430...item2c5616323d

I just researched what came with your Pebble Beach for free goodies. Each year was different. Mine came with a nice Tumi Lexus Pebble Beach garmet bag that folds over. I missed a rare opportunity on eBay to buy one because I was too cheap! Yours came with a choice of the following, so it's likely you didn't get any of these:

The Callaway Golf® Experience

Four exclusive packages are designed to improve the look and performance of one's golf game. One dozen personalized Callaway Golf Tour ix Golf ***** can be combined with a Callaway Golf Ft-I driver or Callaway Golf Hyper X driver and one X Hybrid. Three Callaway Golf X-Forged wedges and one Odyssey White Hot XG 2-Ball putter are matched to one dozen personalized Callaway Golf Tour ix Golf *****. One case (12 dozen) of personalized Callaway Golf Tour ix Golf ***** is also available.

Travel Package

Pebble Beach Edition owners can carry style and refinement from their vehicle into a luxury hotel with one of three luxury luggage packages. A café-colored three-piece leather luggage set includes two cabin duffels, one carriage duffel, and personalized embossed luggage tags. Two pairs of Callaway Golf Eyewear complement the café-colored leather briefcase or the café-colored leather tote bag.

Epicurean Encounter

Those owners interested in improving their culinary skills can choose the Epicurean Encounter. They can select a six-piece Viking® Santoku Cutlery Set including 10-slot maple knife block or a four-piece Viking Cookware set. Both come with a Viking Cooking School $200 gift card redeemable for cooking classes or merchandise online at vikingrange.com. The package also offers the option of a café-colored leather wine tote and a diverse selection of wines from member wineries of the highly regarded Napa Valley Vintners.

Okay, so I had a little time to take some pictures today while I was out. Sorry for the un-professional pictures but it's 100+ degrees out today.

Interior pics soon to follow.

Looks sharp! And welcome.

Now, that little button on the dash which says OPEN? Press and hold it!! Then take more pix!!!

P.S. Are those upgraded wheels or are they different because the car is PB?

Love the 09 PB...tourmalines standard on it. Very cool!!! We are picture snobs here on the CL...sorry! But JohnnyCake is right-take some more pics!! You've got one of the coolest SC430's ever made and these pics don't do it justice!!!

Here are some pics of the one in Plano at Park Place I took and maybe a Lexus stock pic mixed in. I absolutely love your black with charcoal gray lone cypress Pebble Beach logos on the mats!!!! I've got black with red logos and red with black logos on my 05 PB.
