Full Version: Any Big Differences From 05 To 06 Sc430

I'm planning to buy an used 05 or 06 SC430. But the price of 06 seems in the range of $30k+ and the price of 05 is only around $25k (same mileage). My question is the big difference in cost worth the money just one year newer. I greatly appreciate all helpful input from the current SC430 owner.
As far as I can tell they are identical, just different years. As far as I know there isn't any difference between any of the 430s.

The 06 got new headlights with AFS and the tail lights became LED's. I honestly think they look a lot better. Get an 06.
Anyone else convinces me to spend $5k more to get an 06? 
They also went from a 5 speed to 6 speed transmission with nicer stock wheels. All the SCs are nice. Just decide if these few changes are worth 5K to you.
