The main difference outside of hue is the satin white pearl has a layer of blurry reflections. Crystal white pearl I believe is your standard shiny paint.


Most car paints shoot for all sharp reflections on all layers. SWP has a blurry layer that gives it the satin feel or closer to clothlike reflections

Halo looks like it has a slight blue to it with more harsh and shinny reflections.

Whiteout looks like it has a slight cream color to it with softer less pronounced reflections.


Really dig both! White is for sure still the best color on this car

Ya I am a more "look at me" kinda guy I guess! In reality I just like the lines better in the safety cone orange!
15.3 million new cars sold in US/Canada last year and I am pretty sure that 15 mil of those were black, white or silver/grey so they just get lost in the crowd.

Yea, I hate that white is so popular. There are 3 white FRSs in our parking lot of 800 employees.

I prefer the more pure white look found on the Halo than the creamy white found on the Whiteout....plus Halo sounds cooler when someone asks what color is your car.

I have the '15 in Halo. Prefer it to the whiteout colour. Although, I really wish I could have gotten a hot lava. But, the white will probably be an easier sell down the road.

Guy at work called almost all the different Ontario dealers and either they didn't bring in any 15 Lavas or sold them right away as nobody seems to have any in stock.
