2011 White vs 2012 White - the same?

Are the paint codes the same for the 2011 and 2012? I saw the names are different between the years.

I believe they are different, especially if your saying one is pearl white and the other is bellanova white. The pearl has the gold flakes in the paint and the white is just a pure white with no pearl

They are different shades of white. Bellanova White Pearl is whiter than the White Diamond Pearl.

2011 White Diamond Pearl had the more golden sparkle.

2012 Bellanova White IS also a pearl white and metallic, but is a brighter, crisper white.

Where you'd see that golden "hue" at times from the previous shade, you see a crisper, brighter pop from the Bellanova White Pearl.
