The blue is nice to look at but it will attract more attention, good and bad. White compliments the red interior of the car and the red pinstripes. You will definitely notice that the CW is off white in certain lighting conditions but I personally like that.

I was pondering the exact same choice. It really came down to exactly what others have said. CW is that classic color and just felt a little bit more "mature" for lack of a better word and Boost Blue while a beautiful color was just too much of an attention grab for me. The car is not discreet already so an eye popping color just proved too much.

I honestly only bought R last year after seeing release in Boost Blue. I was originally waiting on '21 supra to drop in Refraction Blue, similar to Boost Blue...plus R was manual as well compared to supra w auto/paddles

My dealership has both for msrp what should I do!?
This car draws enough attention with its "slightly odd" styling cues. I say go with the white and fly under the radar (if that's possible with a type R) that said, If you crave attention go with the blue. ;)

I have not seen a BB in person but in pictures it really does look nice and it pops. It does make you stand out more.

Like the others have said CW has more of a heritage thing and it’s a little more low key BUT if you like it bright and kinda in your face, go BB.

I think if you have a hint of liking things a bit more outlandish going with BB is for you. You’ll regret getting CW as it’s too “normal” looking. All depends on your personality. Either way it’s the same car which is good. Not like your choosing between two different cars. And MRSP is good!

Very nice. Highly recommend some PPF on the front and ceramic coat if you are able to swing it, to keep it nice :)

Front PPF + Ceramic coat will run somewhere around $2800-3100 or there abouts. It will offer good protection against rock chips or other damage to your car’s paint and make it easier to clean, though you will need to use a pressure washer and (2) bucket method.

It makes sense if you can wash the car yourself and the car is a long term keeper. Otherwise no.


How much?

It's definitely my color of choice after now seeing everything color in person besides the limited edition
I thought it would be :) I'd pass on the ceramic coating - it's a car imo and will pick up a little something here and there that a spot of touch up paint can fix. I've driven long enough to know the roads will throw something at your car that will pretty much ensure minor damage. We're flying down the roads from speeds anywhere to 100+ - little stuff will happen. Anything you can't see on a car from 10' away is meaningless imo unless you're OCD and get all up on it. I still wash with care but don't put anything on the front of any car, personally.
