WTF Basque Red Pearl II?

Just poking around at the Acura site on build a new ride and they now show under the 12 SH-AWD Advance this new color... Any ideas?

Looks exactly the same to me (and no where as unique as Mayan Bronze)

By the way Ferrcad-will you still bet the .9 financing (60 months) if your Mayan Bronze is delivered mid-late September?

I love MBM, but only in the sun, MBM in the shade is not my cup of tea, which is why I like BRP. Both are very expensive basecoats.

I was told by the sales manager that it is a locked rate on the deal... But once again no car so we will see if and when they get the MB/U SH-AWD Advanced...

Also I was posting this information regarding the new color to see if anybody new WTF it was all about... The new 2012 RDX is showing the same color but they do not show the actural color...

Both the white pearl colors and the basque red will now be called "II" for 2012+ builds.

The colors will be mostly the same, but due to slight pigment changes that had to be made given the Japan production issues (mainly specific to the unique paint pigments) the colors had to be reformulated. They'll essentially look the same but just different enough they have to have a different code, etc. and are not same matches for the current non-II versions.

Different but similar.
