Super aggressive diffuser and tire width on the concept too.

That blue's looking nice shining in the CA sun like that... if I'd seen these pics a while ago it would've made my decision to order red a little tougher. I would've loved to see the yellow of the Tc's latest release, or Toyota/Scion's dark purple. I know they'll probably come out as a release series or whatever they're called, but I need mine ASAP!

I dont mean to be disrespectful, So does sunnyD he works for Toyota too,and he witnesses and took a picture , Lol.

So you got two Toyota employee saying two different things. I think its 37J too I made a whole list of why a BRZ was 37J but I have no solid proof for it on the FRS its a really high percentage that it is,but still nothing solid,86 are 37J too Ive been going by that but sunnyD isnt the only eye witness ive spoken to that say it doesnt look pearl, so with this deduction until one side comes up with something.

Simply i dont believe you and im not the only one, Im sure. White is the color choice of my fathers 86 so this subject is important to us.

That obviously looks pearl to me. White doesn't "bling" like pearl white does.

If Toyota was going to use another color they'd use it on the 86/GT86 also IMO.

The picture *SCREAMS* SWP, which is why my initial reply was "looks like swp to me".

Sunny hasn't reposted yet (that I've seen) so maybe he hasn't looked at the car again, or maybe it was gone by yesterday morning.

There's lots to suggest it's going to SWP and nothing at all to suggest it won't be SWP.

I could see how SWP doesn't look pearl if you are used to nice looking pearls, it's tanish and ugly instead of nice looking like some of the better white pearls out there.

Again though, that picture looks exactly like SWP in real life (at least on my monitor) so either my monitor (which was calibrated a year ago) is messed up, the camera settings were really off, or it's SWP..

colHolm, did you open the door of a white FR-S and pull that color code from it or get the code from some tech manual? If so you can end the discussion, but until then I contest it's obviously SWP.

Look it's simple Dave, myself and others we can't prove it's SWP, and I'm giving the other the benefit of the doubt, but they can't prove that it's not either. So this isn't going to go anywhere, it can scream as much as it wants until there's a official writing that it's 37J everyone has the right to say that it is, or it's not. In this case colHolm at this moment can't prove that it's 37J and SunnyD can't prove that it's not. So people are going to believe what they want to they have every right to so until one of us or these Toyota workers and or Scion people even Subaru can come out to say Hey it's 37J I have a tech manual, color code, Brochure here. People don't have to believe a thing.

With the yellow tint it looks like Satin Pearl White to me.

I was just explaining why I'm 99.999% sure that ColHolm is the correct party here. I personally don't care what color the white FR-S is. Sounds like you were upset at my reply, which wasn't the intention. So far the evidence Sunny has offered says SWP instead of not-SWP His eyes don't present well as evidence. So far he seems to be the only person who thinks it's not SWP based on his own picture.
