That's the one I ordered originally earlier in the year. The one that arrived was a Starfire Pearl 6MT sans Nav.

The one in Pleasanton had Navigation, Hid's and 18 inch wheels and a 6spd manual. I don't think we are talking about the same car though.

Please help me before i settle!!

Thank you in advance!

Should not be hard to find at all. It's a regular production color. When I did all my SoCal shopping in Feb, every dealer had plenty of whites. Check our Westminster, they have several storage lots.

SR20****, if you do a search of people that have had problems special ordering ( I did do a special order, not a preference order) that Toyota has issues with building requests in rare combos. In the majority of cases I've seen here from posters it has to do with the 6MT. I know in my case it was the color combo with 6MT, Nav and 17 inch wheels.
