PEARL WHITE... Represent!!!!

[Eddie1218]

I am wavering on the color my order at this time. Biggest problem is I don't have no access to a Tesla Store overseas at this time. I have looked at thousands of pics trying solidify my choice. Can someone post a pic of a good representation of what Pearl White looks like in person. TIA.

A lil more or a lil less??

You have looked at 1000's of pics and you want someone to post another pic for you to look at??????? That doesn't make any sense.

 

[Eddie1218]

yup

still want pics to see what the metallic looks like. Close to switching to red if white is overly pearlescent like Cadillac paint? Every pic I have seen pretty much looks white but I know it must have some depth.

From a few other posts you have made, it appears to me that you area deployed somewhere. I couldnt imagine buying a car that i had not even SEEN in person before. Is there a reason you cant wait till you get back to order your car?

Imagine a black car. Blacker than black. Blacker than night. Once you have that image firmly in your mind, then imagine something almost exactly the opposite.

There you go.

I will be home mid-December. Just in time to take delivery or will have to wait until possibly march, I sold my other car before I deployed. I received an email from my SA if I want to update my order and it got me thinking. I am sure I will be happy regardless.

Here, fixed it for you: PEARL WHITE

It's just a regular white, the world pearl is there just to confuse you.

I take that back, I might be wrong (if they didn't discontinue it without changing the name):

• Solid white or pearl white
• Pearl White Exterior Model X Photos

So yes, the pearl one might indeed have some freckles to it.

The Pearl really shows in the sun. Far better than solid white paint on other cars.

Here are photos of our X ... same paint as the 3. It definitely has some light metallic fleck in it, but not nearly as much as the Cadillac. (I had an XT5 before our 3 & X....)

It is for sure a pearlized, tricoat paint. Very very nice color - love it.

Just kidding... here is our 1 month old model 3, for real.

Alright, here's one even better for you. Before we replaced it with the Model X -- here was our Buick Enclave. Same paint as the Cadillac XT5 (same paint code - I had one jar of touchup for both cars.)

Go sit at a Supercharger for awhile, just like I did. You will see one pretty quickly. Don't confuse normal White, with Pearl White. Early Model S and Model Xs had a solid White. The Pearl White shines in bright sunlight, but it less Pearl than most cars.

It's cheaper and better on a hot day.

You really can't go wrong with whatever color you pick, especially since they're getting rid of the chrome finally. Get some decent tint on it and it'll look wonderful. I recommend 20% all around with 70% on the front to take the edge off the sun.
