I may be trading up for a STi soon and was considering Plasma Blue Pearl as my choice in color. Post 'em if you got 'em! (WRX welcome, too)

It's a good looking color, so I'd go with it. Goodluck with your purchase; you'll like the car regardless of the color.

Here's some quick shots I took after my first wash.

Finally got out and took some decent pics of mine after a fresh wash, clay, polish, and wax.

2011 STi.

That's funny, it's pretty close to my bfs work so we always meet up there for lunch. Yeah I'm glad I waited for the 2012's because I honestly don't know what color I would've picked. When I saw Pbp it was a no brainer.

Anyone know what the rankings of colors are as far as popularity or numbers produced? For example, is PBP more or less popular then black.... and so forth?

I think it'll be harder to find just because it's a relatively new color; 2012 is the first year I could get it on a wrx. I don't know how many were built though, so I cannot compare it to another color.

BTW, I doubt I'll own another black car lol (my previous wrx was Midnight Black Pearl).

Man I love that color. It reminds me of my old RS in Regal Blue Pearl. My next Subie will be that color for sure.

haha i originally used to not be a fan of yellow fogs.. til i did them on my FXT and being able to see in the rain with no problem makes me a fan

on the STi, i retrofitted 9012 bulbs.. that paired up with the yellow overlays make my fogs super functional

I feel the same way. It makes the car seem a bit more subtle for some reason. I like it and I am sure once it's been dropped and a nice set of tires and rims have been fitted it would look badass. I just can't explain it.
