I don't think that is matte white. I think the pearl is making it look matte due to the lighting. It is likely a production pearl white.

It's matte white, but a slight metallic version (Satin white Pearl). I took those photos.

I think it's that Satin white Pearl that Subaru has it on their WRX right now, here's a reference.



see the similar texture?

But if Hachi says it's a new Subaru Matte White, then it's prolly a new White we haven't seen From Subaru.... but funny thing is Toyota is getting the Satin white XD

I hope BRZ comes in Plasma Blue, I will hunt down STI dark colored wheels to put it on my BRZ if they come in Plasma blue XD



Like this one and I think White is 4th or 5th choice...

Why do you doubt the white would make production?

No way that makes production, you can not buff a matte clear coat.
