Default White or Pearl White Exterior?

how do i know which white exterior i have.. This is probably a stupid question but when the car is in the sun i see sparkles in the paint that shine and look like pearl so I'm guessing its pearl white....

joshoowa is correct. I just wanted to add also that it's diamond pearl white with slight yellowing to our lower panels, same as mine '99

Have you add yourself to this list?
