i dont own a yaris, or any toyota for that matter.

im doing a full resto build on my 95 trans am and was going to use rolls royce, royal blue pearl metallic but cant get that color through sherwin williams (what we use at work). well yesterday while driving i spotted 2 yaris and 4 tacomas that have a very similar bright blue with pearl in it. anyone have the paint code for it? or what the color is actually called?

blue streak metallic is the color. :) if toyota works like most manufactures they use pearl to get the metallic look. anyone know for sure?

IDK for blue streak (a color for sedans) but blazing blue 8T0 (used on hatchbacks e.g. mine) is definitely pearl (hence the "mica" in the name). Check out the sample pics on this page, IMO the colours seem similar enough: http://www.toyotareference.com/yaris#YA
