I don't think Sharpton actually said that...

Hello @Garstang,

I think the color "white out" brings out the lines of the FR-S the best of the colors offered back in 2013.

I've found it to be relatively durable and doesn't seem show dirt too badly.

As far as matching it, in case repairs are needed, ..... I suggest you let the paint shop worry about that. Just pick the color you like to look at ....

On the downside, I do think the name "white out" is a poor choice for that color. "White out", to me, conjures up either a totally blank scene ..... or something that is used to cover up a mistake. Neither of which I find appealing.

I suggest you stick with your first choise, which is usually what your gut is saying and what usually is best .....

The Scion FR-S in Liquid Paper or Correction Fluid just didn't sound right! Everyone is correct, though, that the FR-S in Person-of-Palor is the best color. It may not stand out the most, which is the best part about it. Sexy little car, whatever color you choose.

My former, now sold Whiteout.

Visually, it stays the cleanest and doesn't show swirls as much as other paints. Love it.

The color white seems to be the latest fad for ALL cars. Not sure how long it will last. Personally ... I prefer car colors with more substance. Again ..it's all subjective.

As has been said, the Whiteout seems to look good with just about anything except the RB kit and some clownshoe wing.

It hides dirt and crud well, and freshly washed and waxed just glows. Shiny!
You won't be disappointed, especially since this color is going away, and it's replacement sucks.

Don't mind the bugs:

Looks good in any light:

Even the birds who can really fly are checking it out:

Like a few have said, it's an amazing color. But if you're planning on getting different aero and what not, good luck matching it. It will rarely ever be perfect.

EASY fix. Don't add that ugly crap, at least to a white one.

Ugly crap? Excusemewhat?.jpg Forgive me for wanting to be different than the masses.

I'm sure most people would agree the bottom looks better than top.
