Yeah, I hope it's a very poor camera phone pic because that is a big transformation in between colors compared to the WRB we've been seeing lately.

Yeah, it's very difficult to capture the accurate color with indoor flourescent lighting.

Nice find! Those LEDs look awesome! I just hope I have the option to turn them off and just run the halos. Blue is really the only color I want, I'm a Subaru fanboy, and the blue is the only Subaru-exclusive color.

I'm not 100% happy with any of the colors sadly But it's so hard to really say until I can see the cars in person in the daylight
I'm feeling like the BIG winner ever since Dave got me added to our deal!

You would look good in that WRB Dave....:happy0180:

My Dark Grey is on the WAY!!

Color differences depends on the white balance setting on the camera.

In the cases of many of these photos, probably more in the lighting. I adjusted mine to get what I saw in my eyes to match the pic, but the WRB has massive differences depending on the lighting.

Yes there are many factors but white balance is where most people get color variations.

Here's a video I took of the one in Montreal Canada with my iPhone4.

You can see as the light hits it, it becomes very light, but when it has shadowing it's very dark.

I'm really hoping for matte white. Glossy looks good too but I've had the background on my laptop set to a matte white BRZ for months and I'm still in love with it.

The only thing is I'm starting to wonder if it even is going to exist.
