Almost there... galaxy blue vs white?
almost at decision point. really like the blue and with it being 2013 exclusive, it makes me want it a bit more... but the white is 'premium' or something right? I mean it cost a bit more for the fr-s. Is the paint better quality or something?
Also, having owned only gray cars, how are blue or white cars for the 'lazy people' that don't need to clean the car daily? |

Galaxy Blue! Plus it's a bit more difficult to paint match the white if you need to touch up the paint, or if you get accessories like an aftermarket spoiler/fender vents/etc. White is so common too for both the FRS and BRZ, so yours would be very unique especially since this is the last year for GSB.

OP, Galaxy Blue is like literally the best color. I might be slightly biased. But it's hella sexy and you should get it all cars look dirty when they're dirty. Maybe you can't see it but I can! Perhaps this will persuade you? When the sun's going down it has a completely different personality:

Just took them today and wasn't gonna post them, but to help you. The White in different settings. Personally I would've picked Galaxy Blue if they had it at the dealer, but I do like the white and it gets a lot of attention from people.
Edit, the white doesn't show dirt as much, but the amount it shows the love bugs down in the south is ridiculous. You can see the smallest dead bug on the front. and these two a while back |

Well, GBS has been discontinued starting with the 2014 model which gives you some exclusivity and kind of looks good you know... Not to mention you become instant member of GBS Mafia

I have a White, but the galaxy blue looks great as well. Tough choice. You can't go wrong with either color though!

Go GBS. I have white. It looks ok but it's kind of boring. If I could do it over I'd go GBS.

How's this for convincing?
GBS in sunlight looks like a blue shade of the Pacific Ocean (:

I debated between white and gray when I was shopping, and almost went with gray, but white was my first desire and I decided to stick with it on fear of regretting color choice. I'm biased towards white, I think it's the best color for a car. With that said, my opinion may be useless. Go with your gut, not what other people tell you.

Looking at your pics I have to ask, what did you do to your fogs lights. They look white, not like the yellow ones that come with the car stock |
