Somebody plz look into this.

2009 SC430 pebble beach edition.

They only sold 790 SC430's in 2009 total. This one even comes with bluetooth. Too bad the dealership is closed today, otherwise id call them and see what the carfax looks like.

little things i noticed:
- seats look like it was sat in by a very heavy-set guy. The cushioning is all flat and gone
- for only 65,000 miles, the headlights are all faded and UV damaged. Probably parked outside 99% of the time
- fuck those rice ass rims.

Not really a good buy at $31, I think closer to $25

Badhobz 07-23-2023 11:43 AM

nah 25k will only yield you a good condition run of the mill 2002-2005 one. Barely a refreshed 2006+ as those seem to be in the high 20's to low 30's now for a minty one.

Given how rare the 2009/2010<-- 2010 is almost impossible its not a horrible buy if you can get it around 28-29k.

"According to Lexus, the trim name was supposed to "evoke the feeling of exclusivity that comes with an excursion to the Pebble Beach Resorts," as were the three exclusive metallic shades of brown, silver and black, the unique wheels, the floor mats with the Pebble Beach Logo and the unique interior colors."

Some of these special editions are just straight up low effort.

Badhobz 07-23-2023 12:55 PM

thats typical lexus. You should see all the special editions they have on my ratrolla.

There's more special "1/100 inspiration edition" cars than there are with my exterior paint/interior combination. (infrared exterior, circuit red interior as that combination is only possible in Canada)

trollface 07-23-2023 12:56 PM

I like the Nori one.

Badhobz 07-23-2023 12:57 PM

this nutbag on clublexus just bought a 2024 one in ontario.

I agree with spy balloon that Hobz has no taste, that green is magnificent. Magnificently old man, but magnificent nonetheless. It needs the old wheels though.

Badhobz 07-23-2023 01:19 PM

IT LOOKS LIKE A TREE!!! youre all crazy (its not gaudy enough for my mainlander eyes)

trollface 07-23-2023 01:35 PM

Certain cars can pull off brown/green. The LC is long enough to do it.

Toyota seems to be doing that a lot lately, with the "Trueno" edition GR86 and 45th Ann Supra with the dinky wing that's supposed to be a tribute to the FnF Supra. They are really milking those 'member berries, eh

That color is magnificent... I feel like it could use the 5 thick spoke chromies from the Pebble Beach SC 430 FeelsGoodMan

NGP really plays well to the LC's status as concept car

this should not be legal :megusta:

Saw a Nori green UX250h and RX yesterday. :sweetjesus:

snowfarmer 07-24-2023 06:37 AM

I kinda like it, redneck engineering at it's finest. Go look at how much a fancy pants enclosed cargo trailer costs.

Not sure if good buy but pretty interesting and you can haul and car camp with any car now:considered:

I like Nori Green on the LC500 a lot too... but only with black interior, not a fan of the 2 tone tan.

underscore 07-24-2023 07:32 AM

I absolutely love green but I'm with Hobz, that doesn't look very good. It's like they found the blandest shade of green they could.

trollface 07-24-2023 07:38 AM

I've lost track of how many FRS editions there have been. The 10, the TRD, Mongram, Release, Release 2.0


The green is stunning in person.

Badhobz 07-24-2023 07:41 AM

LF-LC concept came in 2 colors and both were outstanding.
This car really needs strong, bold, colors. Nori Green is wayy too sophisticated for such a bold styled car.

Looks fantastic in Nori Green.


Green has been making a come back in the past few years!

68style 07-24-2023 09:04 AM

I cannot stand that baby shit copper colour for 2024 though, it’s awful and all the old fucks on the LC groups are jizzing their pants over it yuck

I suppose it's the new beige for old folks - my parents picked that color for the RZ and love it. I told them it's tacky and they should go for black to hide those panda eyes, but I have to give them credit for choosing a more interesting color than black/white/gray.

I don't mind the Nori color on the LC, but I think it looks out of place on a RX or GX.

ssjGoku69 07-24-2023 10:19 AM

The RZ has some real weird colouring. Either black eye bags or a black hood&grille?
