I just wanna say what I an idiot I feel like. When my BRZ deal fell apart I happened to look at the Toyota Philippines website to check out the 86. I saw something in the config section that caught my eye. Galaxy Blue Silica.
(Tried attaching a screen cap but tapatalk won't let me so just see for yourself at the site.)
Anyway, the color looked new to me cause it looked very close to WR Blue and I became very interested. Talked to people (sales reps) and got told it was the same color. Had no reason to doubt them since that's what I saw for myself at the site. But I still wanted to see the color in person to decide for myself. None of the dealers I talked to had the color and so couldn't show me.
I figured that it must be a new color for 2013 or something cause I haven't seen the car in that color before. Then during the course of my conversation with my rep he had said something rather alarming. Galaxy Blue was the color of their first display unit. This is where my gut should've sank. I dismissed it and told myself that he must be mistaken. No way!
I should've known better. People may not know color names or be able to accurately describe color hues but almost everyone can tell time. I just decided to google Galaxy Blue Silica and to my dismay it turned out to be the dark blue I've seem before. Seriously, if you haven't already, go to the Toyota Philippines site and tell me the blue they use is the same hue as the car!
So now I gotta decide on a color other than blue cause though I really want a blue car, the only blue I'm interested in is WR Blue Pearl. I'm gonna have to call my guy up tomorrow to change the color of my reservation but what a bummer.
Still deciding on what to get. Looks like I'm gonna have to order white or silver.
I was really looking forward to getting a color I haven't had before.
Someone please convince me Dark Gray Metallic is the way to go!
