To each man/woman their own. I can appreciate the package they put together, but today I am even more happy with my purchase of the Whiteout! 10 series/Silver Ignition welcome to the Scion family!

Despite test driving a white GT-86 at the Tokyo Megaweb Ride One test drive track back in August of last year, I was finally able to see the paint in the sunshine in person this morning at the Subaru dealership. It's a fantastic color, actually leapfrogging to my second favorite paint option for the twins.

I like the silver, it's the same Silver they use on Lexus, according to a good source. And I always thought Lexus has a Nice silver. Then again coming form someone like me who has owned nothing but silver cars. I'm alittle Bias.

I'm surprised I still can feel that "holy crap, this baby is MINE" feeling when I walk up to it, even though I've had it for 9 1/2 months now.

Seriously I love the color! I currently have a Scion tc RS 6.0 (very similar color) and it has definitely become my favorite color. I have only seen one WRB BRZ in my area. I might be attending UCF next year so maybe I'll see you around!

Worth it if you are contempt with the color and illuminating badges, only because it DOES have the $2,200 upgraded HID/LED's headlights AND Smart Key/ Push2Start.

Other than that? It's not..

Now if they illuminated the 86 piston logo into the dash (red illumination), that would be something worth looking at!

I wonder if it's the same as Cerulean Blue Metallic?

nvm.. saw the ass.. the glowing badges are turning me off.

If they do, Scion will take away their right to sell Scions. Pure Pricing is a big deal to them.

Really? All the dealers down here have alittle thing called "adjusted market value" and it ranges from $1000 to the highest iv seen $5K!

That scion pure price is a load of crap.

What is Scion's pure pricing philosophy?

Scion's Pure Price purchase experiences means: No Haggle. No Hassle. The Price You Pay For All Products = The Dealership's Posted or Advertised Price.

If the dealer has all their FRS's marked up they are still within "pure price"

This. Scion has an MSRP posted on their site but dealerships are at liberty to mark it up so long as they stick to whatever marked up price they advertise for each model they sell. Solution: Shop at another dealer that sells at Scion's MSRP.
