Gotcha. I went back 2 pages and you had mentioned SP3. Either way, just wanted to make sure as people come into these threads 10 yrs later lol

pearl paint is such a ****head if you need panels refinished.


so is neptune blue a pearl or metallic?

Not sure. Not really enough pictures to tell. I'm hoping it's just regular ass old gloss.

I believe the color code for the 2022 Neptune Blue is the same as the one for 2020? You can look up the latter.

how do you look up whether a paint is metallic, pearl, non-metallic?

Hopefully the audio on the Premium trim version isn't terrible like it was on my '15 Limited BRZ.

You and me both. Although its a plus that I like the cleaner front end on the Toyota and really hate the license plate cut-out on the BRZ.

I am very interested in the limited sound system. I spent about $800 upgrading my current 2020 WRB Limited BRZ sound system (same head unit, all different speakers, lots more power), so I actually am very happy with my sound system now. But if the limited is pretty good out of the box, I won't feel compelled to spend that much (or any) if/when I get the GR86.

I think it pretty clearly is not pearl or metallic - just by looking at it. Heck, that is half the point of that color.

Did you post details on this?

I do like the front end better and the ducktail as well. Although that will quickly be available in the aftermarket.

Either way, I'll still probably wait until next year until more details are out and such. The fiance and I both work from home permanently and share a car. I sold ridiculous NC back in March, because I'd 900 miles on it 1 year.

On the stereo? Yes - in the audio forum.

Neptune Blue for me.

My thoughts:

It is a non-metallic base paint - it will be easier to repaint panels or body kits parts with a high chance of it matching.

The Porsche Miami blue pairs well with black wheels.

As far as wheels go I think 18" Gram Lights 57xtreme or Enkei RS05RR in a satin black - same sheen that matches the black plastics.

Pair that with a black plastic (look) front lip and canard to calm down that lower rocker line I think you'll have a tidy car.

Never thought I would own a white car but as soon as I saw the GR86 in halo white I knew it was the right color and really sold me on the Toyota over the BRZ in WRB that I had initially planned on getting. I’m going to be camping out at the dealership the night before reservations start.
