Whatever white Toyota is using on the Scion TC's, probably the brightest, cleanest looking white I've seen(I know the same shade is used on the Lexus SUV). As for the guy commenting on the local Honda's they are probably painting it Championship White (an off white) off of the genuine Type-R's. I too fell victim to a Honda paint color..Nighthawk Black Pearl(my gst was black to begin with)..Thanks to Progressive for the free paint job!!Anywho..good luck with ## decision
 
Im partial to silver even though neither of my cars are silver. But if you go with the white off of the toyotas and scions like Big28 2gFWD said it should come out real nice.
 
championship white is the way to go. Thats the white that they used on the integra type-r.
 
The white on Scooby's is good. One of my co-workers just bought a new STI and it is white. I kinda like it.
 
The factory Mitsu color Northstar white looks damn good in my opinion. Thats the color I had my car repainted. ;)
 
i really like the 350z white. I think it's called Pike Peak White or something along those lines.

Pikes Peak White is what it is called and its gorgeous. If your set on white I would definatly paint it this color. The main thing i like is that it will show all the lines on the car and brings out the sleakness design eclipses have.:thumb:
 
I like the pearl white on the new lexus, it's kind of a grayish white pearl with a blue peral in it that gives it this neat glowing look.
 
Spring is coming fast, and I want to get the car repainted.

The exterior, full interior (jambs, hatch, and under the carpet etc), engine bay, VC, and IC Pipes will all be getting painted. I will be buying the paint and clear myself, and having a local friend spray it on, wet sand it and buff it for me.

My dilemma is what color to choose. I know I want Metallic flake, and have narrowed it down to these six. Let me know what you think...

This isn't one of the choices, but the gunmetal from an evo looks so good. Otherwise, Titanium Grey looks good.
 
I'd say leave it white...but with no pearl. I just have a soft spot for white cars.

The blue is also a verrrryyyy nice color as well...just a lot more $$ in doing all the jambs, underside of the hood (unless its black like your engine bay), etc... I believe its called Daytona Blue, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think its the same blue Nissan used on the Skylines.

So I guess you are willing the spend the extra $$, its Blue FTW
