Decisionnnnsss..
Ordered Raven FRS at my local dealer.. But sadly Scion did not forward my order to Japan.. Local dealer contacted me they received Whiteout an now at port.. Hmmm.. I know white is my second choice but black is sexy.. But lots of people here saying white really standsout in this car.. Huh.. "but" is in both sides..

Make them give you the Whiteout at no additional cost

The black looks god-like sexy for the 30 seconds following its wash, then starts to look really bad. Part of that is because these cars are painted by Subaru, and Subaru paint has always sucked. I can guarantee you you'll find swirl marks on it before the dealer detailer even so much as touches it.
The Pearl White, on the other hand, never really "pops", even when it's clean, but hides dirt and imperfections like a champ. Due to unfortunate circumstances, I've had to have mine parked outside since getting it, and it still looks nice 95% of the time. But really, it's whichever you feel more passionate about. If colors don't really move you that much, then go for the white and make them make it up to you. |

Well I don't know yet cuz i'm at overseas right now and will not be back until the end of the month so not sure if they will let the car wait for me.. W/c is not my choice but just giving me the opportunity for this one..

I just drove off with a Raven last night. Originally wanted white out but after seeing all the frs meets pics here is so cal with like 7 white out and 1 raven and like 1 hot lava i decided to go with raven. Whiteout is really beautiful and really really popular. If you get whiteout you can always wrap the car any color you want or even plasti-dip it. Just saying

White white white. I have a black truck and anything that gets on it Bakes in when the sun is shinning. The paint is so hard to keep clean.

I'll be happy when I can get Galaxy Blue (Ultramarine). I did a local search and there weren't any offered for sale within 200 miles! That's gonna be a rare color.
