    You have to see it to appreciate the paint job. Parang reflectorized na hindi mo maintindihan.

    I think the price increase would be justified if they used a harder clearcoat and a mirror finish - no more orange peel. Anyway magiging dirty white mga yan after a few years pag di marunong magalaga.

    Yup, Isuzu's special white color costs much more than the regular model.


    It's a function of the cost of the paint. It's a more expensive paint, and the pearl effect requires multiple coats.

    The paint job usually costs twice a regular one.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yan din ang alam ko...until lately mas naging popular ang white.
    nung kapanahunan pa ng mga big body Corolla GLis...yan ang mabentang kulay RED MICA.

    Pearl White Mica gamit sa Civic at CR-V. Brilliant White Pearl ang gamit sa Accord. Mas mahal nga ang pearl white kasi iba ang formulation at mas maganda nga naman kesa sa regular Taffeta White nila (gamit sa Honda City namin).
