Difficult to see these two shades of white side by side at a dealership. What are the differences?
Ice Cap vs Wind Chill Pearl Difference ?

In my opinion, the Wind Chill Pearl is that, a pearl. whereas Ice Cap is super-white, but bland. MUCH prefer Wind Chill!
Wind Chill is $425 extra. Lovely pearly. Kinda metallic.
Also worth noting that Ice Cap/Super White have a history of paint quality issues. Adhesion issues primarily.
WCP the metallic is finer than other metallics. I read instead of metal flakes it actually uses mica, also read it uses real pearls but I doubt that. WCP is a 3 stage paint where the car is painted white, then a coat of pearl (color), then a clear coat. Ice cap is flat white with probably a clear making it 2 stage. Although some people say there is no clear making it a single stage. WCP is not as bright white as ice cap. The mica refracts light, slowing it down, giving the appearance of different colors at different angles.

Thank you all for the info. Saw a Meteor shower on the road and thinking it was darker then Wanted.
WCP looks like a great choice.

Meteor Shower is really interesting in person, looks very different in different lights.
Looks like you're at Norton Toyota. Right down the street from me. Not liking their $4000 markups though. Still waiting till things settle out here in OKC.
I bought mine from them 3 weeks ago, paid ~2k under MSRP. It took 2.5 hours of negotiating to get there.
