When I was snooping around those screenshots posted earlier on, I noticed the only color codes present were Incognito, White, Cloudburst. I think in the video I saw a couple other ones as he scrolled- but not very many. It is indeed very limited right now. I was told these cars are still in Status A and custom orders won't be fulfilled till the car goes to Status F. This was coming from a dealership I am not working with, so take this with a grain of salt

Are there definitions of the statuses anywhere? Or does anyone know them?

What I would give for the inside scoop on when Status F will be achieved because I would gladly wait for my White on White if such a status will be achieved by summer That could free up mine for a certain someone on here

No comment.... hahahaha
it just looks so good in the videos, and I saw one on a normal 2021 and it looked good to me. It's also overcast here, like most of the year- so its not as glittery light blue like the renderings in person

I'm right there with you. Seen it in person as well on a 2021 IS. Can't change my mind unless it's not available or the wait is too long. Plus if they aren't paying for it.
