    Ugh, that green tint and sparkles of the Blizzard Pearl are a deal-killer for me. From a distance it just looks like dingy white to me.

    Green tint? Sure you are not confusing it with Sea Glass Pearl--That is green (and a cool color too BTW). Never noticed no green tint and I see this every car day--very up close. I've hand washed it. It is a white. Interesting comment though. BP is highly sought by many. But then, that is why they make other colors.

    I'm sure it isn't Sea Glass Pearl, that's what I own. Green like a good mint ice cream - almost white, but not quite. I can see BP from a mile away, but it's the sparkles that kill me. It would be awesome if it was just pearl without the sparkles. I'd feel like I was in a Twighlight movie all the time ;)

    I should have waited... I should have waited...

    But I couldn't.

    I didn't wait either. And, I'm glad for it. I have been in the HOV lanes thru many traffic snarls and enjoyed lots of moments with my car and happy times. Endured $4.50 a gallon gas with no worry... so tt's not about the $ as far as the deal goes... not really for me.
