|
|
Has anyone seen a Corolla in Desert Sand Mica or Cactus Mica on the road before?
They list these colors on the Toyo website but of all the corollas I see everyday, I've never seen one in either of these colors before.
Anyone have any pics? |

Cactus Mica.. Seen one once.. was ugly as hell so, I can see why nobody carries em.
Desert Sand.. I see all the time. no pics, but it's very common here.
On the 03's they had "Moonshadow Metallic" that was a grey speckled color.. not sure if it's the same as the "Phantom Grey pearl" on the 05's but that color has always been somewhat rare. |

Moonshadow is not the same as Phantom Grey. Phantom Grey is a little darker than the Moonshadow. I had a Moonshadow Corolla before I got my xB. |

My mom wants either Desert Sand or Red but she'll have to look at it in person. |

I used to have a Black Metallic Corolla before my BSP tc...
the paint is almost identical except my tc has other colors reflecting like red and green...my corolla was only white metallic particles
