Thank you for that translation, I really appreciate it.

Hopefully it doesn't suddenly become an "upcharge" here; that's the color I'm eyeing most.

My 1st choice too. For what it's worth, when i bought my wrx, the Satin white pearl, which is supposed to be the same color for the brz, was NOT an extra charge option at the time. Neither was my world rally blue. If they start charging now count me as surprised.

rosuhere · 02-06-2012, 04:38 PM

i <3 white... but NOT pearl white, sh!ts whack !

i'm still praying that fr-s' white paint is "regular" white... if not, i really don't know which color to get... needless to say, i have only owned white cars; aspen white [subaru] to be exact :]

Zaku · 02-06-2012, 04:40 PM

lol Sorry Rosuhere, but FRS is likely I'm 99.8% sure that it's also SWP, wouldn't make sense for the two companies to add another paint into the mix. Scion just renamed the color, but hey I be pretty surprised and happy if they used Super White. Even if it's unlikely. I be pretty darn happy about that .2% I'm hopeful too myself.

I agree 100%. I had an '11 STi in SWP and it was f'ck*ng nasty! SWP is more beige than white. The BRZ in Aspen white would be great!!!

Snoopyalien24 · 02-07-2012, 12:33 AM

Like I said before, the FRS's white will not be SWP. The only real SWP car we've seen was on the TRD. That's it, no BRZ, or GT86, nor FRS. According to evreyone, it's a pain to maintain, so whatever I don't care anyways.

Colloquially, SWP is referred to as Sperm White Pearl.
