Default white color on GS

i've seen the 2 colors on the white.

one of them is the solid white. the other is the white pearl. what are the names of the color? did they come in both 06 and 07?

There are a total of 3 pearl white colors for the 3rd Gen. One color superceeded the other for 2007.

062 - Crystal White Pearl - 2006 Only
074 - Glacier Frost Mica - 2006-2007 (white w/blue irridescent pearl)
077 - Starfire Pearl - 2007 and up. (Brighter white and more pearly than CWP).

I personally like the pearly colors so I vote for SP.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the CW when it came out for 06 though!

Glacier Frost Mica is the best but it's also super rare. GFM on Black is the ultimate but it's so rare good luck getting that custom ordered even. It's MIA.

Can't be too rare when there is another thread showing it is the 3rd most popular color.
I hope it is discontinued....then we can call it rare.

I believe GFM is definitely a rare color...

Even though the other thread had the poll on the colors..it only represents those of us here in this forum, not necessarily the actual GSs on the road.

I for one am a GFM lover myself! (for being a rare car, there sure are alot of people on CL that have a 3rd Gen GFM car!)
I searched for a long time to find a GFM car with the black interior and i finally found one so i bought it. i probly came across 15+ Glacier Frost cars with the gray int. during my search. im really glad i found it........i love it.
