another SC430 owner
I joined here about a week ago knowing I would be buying a SC430 but I didn't know it would be this fast. I just bought a ($17.500) 2006 SC430 with 51.000 miles... Mercury Metallic silver exterior with Saddle leather..The car is in excellent condition.. Paint is perfect the interior is perfect not a mark everything works. It was a 70 year old lady that owned it, a very nice lady. She purchased it new at Lexus in 2006 for $70,550. I've looked at a few SC's and nothing was close to this car in condition. All service has been done at the local Lexus dealer and it has all the records, It was almost to much to ask for, everything worked perfect and a one owner, I'll have it tomorrow...
First I wanted a red SC, but when I saw the silver that was it..It has the new 5 point wheels that are chrome they look very good. Well here I go I haven't owned a used car for decades so we'll see how it all works out..I'm not living under false impressions that everything will be perfect but at least it's starting out in the right direction.

Ya I be getting some pictures when I get it up to my standards.. I've got 2 days of work on my last bay in my 3 car garage before I can get the SC in, I've been storing tons of stuff there since I got rid of my other car.
I want to strip everything off the paint then clay bar, sealer, ceramic...then the complete interior...oh I forgot the engine bay first and wheels...Probable 3/4 days work on the car alone..In a week or so I should be close...hopefully

Do you have the original window sticker? I was just curious at your $70,550 figure. My 2006 SC 430 had a base of $65,355 and all the options I believe except the spare tire conversion kit. I was charged $400 for the run flats, $440 for the rear spoiler and $194 for the preferred accessory package and delivered to Lexus of Tulsa at a cost of $650 and I came in at $67,039. Is yours a Pebble Beach Addition? Were there more options that were available that my 06 does not have? Trying to figure out what the $3500 difference was? Were the chrome wheels that much of an option? Where do you live in AR. I live in Bella Vista
