Yeah there are many silver cars on the road, but i've seen more GLM and Ruby Pearl (or whatever the burgundy color is called) than anything with TSX. I think a lot of people are going with that 'silver is too common' logic these days and reducing the number of newer silver cars. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Ive seen many '09+ TSXs on the road, and rarely have I seen the silver. Also silver doesnt show dirt as much. I'm a huge fan of dark gray/gunmetal, so the graphite color I would have thought would be my #1 choice, but I'm very happy with my silver.

white - it's the new black! it stands out and look luxurious.

IMO, get white(BWP) before it become played out like black. But ebony interior FTW

I have a pwp with black interior...and it looks good It looks even better on a '12 because of the grille..
and IMO, blue and red are too flashy...but it doesnt look bad either..

PWP & BWP aren't the same color. If they were they wouldn't have changed the. name. We had a PWP AND BWP (Me & Kait) At Menlo, & it's obvious the difference. PWP is more of an OFF WHITE creamy, BWP is almost SNOW WHITE.

PWP power!!! lol

I think the shape of the car goes very well with silver, but maybe im being a silver fanboy here... I resign lol...

O know the 1st gen and 2nd gen shared the PWP. I've also seen and been next to a bunch of PWP's and I swear they appear to be more off white, yellowish, than the Bellanova.

I will do a little more digging into it But i find that so weird.


Right. This is what I was aware of. but I can't believe they're the same exact color.

Either way White FTW. Just looks so clean and elegant.

Originally Posted by MoaarLow

NO, what he said was it was pwp until early 11 then moving forward it became BWP. But its only a name change. The color itself is still the same along with the color code. Which boggles my mind b/c PWP and BWP side by side are clearly different..

Up until the tsunami, the white was pwp. That color effectively disappeared with the destruction of the factory supplying the pigment.

It was replaced by Bellanova - a paint that uses a different pigment produced by a different factory. With a few exceptions, that change happened with the 2012 model year.

Most 2011's a pwp. All 2012's are Bellanova. pwp and Bellanova have different paint codes.

Clear???
