I say it does. Looks just like the SWP on a WRX/STI

It was probrably just the lighting at the show I like it alot too but I wish I could see it in black and red and a better shot a the silver.... and WRCII blue is growing on me, it's alittle different from the WRX current WRC blue.... or am I wrong and the WRCII blue is only on the BRZ sti concept.

You are aware of the fact that the factory production SWP on the STi is gloss cleared? It is entirely possible they went with a matte clear for the show car.

man somebody confirm that there will be matte (technically satin since it has flat-looking clear coat) finish from factory and i`ll be the first one in line...

You could always sand the clear down and then spray it with a matte clear at a quality body shop. this is nothing money could not solve.

That is the very same reason why a matte clear paint would suck. You can simply polish clear coat, with matte clear you have to sand off the scratched clear and re-clear it. That will not be cheap. :/

The white FR-S is regular white while the BRZ has the Satin White Pearl
that's already in production.
so yes it will be real.

no one was questioning if SWP was real. The issue was the appearance of the matte finish when that color is indeed NOT cleared with a matte on a production STi. Same paint, different clear coat.

it hasn't been confirmed that SCION didn't just renamed the colors so, we're still at square one with this, Im for one putting my bet that this is SWP on that BRZ and it's the same as the ones on the Impreza wrx right now.
