first of all its meteorite metallic not silver........just kidding. A few scratches on my silver LB are very hard to see . No experience with the white personally though.

the Yari's Polar white is note white white, it's kinda yellowish white like you describe. Kinda on the beige side of the white. but not yet beige. I think it looks really good.
although, if you get the 09 hatchback, it comes in pearl metallic white. Must like the pearl white that comes with the lexus IS300. Again, it is really beautiful.

On Toyota website, i dont see this Pearl Metallic White.

In Canada that colour is an extra charge and only available on the hatch.

Silver, hides anything, even decorations on the car, until you're right up on top of it.

ezhacker1 · 04-16-2009, 04:51 PM

even tho this for a hatchback. Looking at Darkmoon87's white sedan, white looks amazing on sedan. Its still a hard choice for me. I got Tare Panda's thingies in my white..ish Taco. And i would bring them over to the Yaris, so of course, a white car would match perfectly, thats one of the reason i like white cars with black whatever. Very Panda like lol.

Lol, went to see a pic.

A hatchback like the yaris fits the shape of those little Tare Pandas i think. Sigh hopefully i can get a yaris.

I voted white but I want you to buy silver so my white 09 3door stick continues be be harder to find. I have about 750 miles on it now and love it.
After about 2 weeks of driving the Yaris only, I got in my 05 Power Wagon and couldn't believe I'd waited so long. Our 06 350Z is much harder to drive and not as comfortable. Of course the Z is a blast and way different but if I have to spend much time in it I prefer the Egg as my lady calls it. Coo Coo Ca Choo.

my choice at the dealer was either White or Meteor Metallic. I knew what there inventory was, only 2 manuals there. I really wanted White, but silver i think hides fine scratches more after seeing that it really isnt silver but is metallic. I like how it changes color in different lighting conditions.

White reflects the heat best! You have plenty of sun where you are....white is right!

I have a meteorite metallic and I really wish I would have gotten white.

but yours is soooo nice. I like the spoiler not being body color. Speaking of that, is it painted black? or just unprimed...cuz i might be lazy enough not to care, if it doesnt contrast badly.

33OH · 04-22-2009, 09:21 AM

Thanks for the compliment!

It's spraypainted black with spraypainted clearcoat.
