Pics of 08 FJs arriving in Ore

nice... get a pic of a white one.. please.

From what I understand, the one pictured above is the "white" one. Iceberg is the color name, and apparently icebergs are not white!? The Sandstorm is a darker tan. Although it could also be the cameras picture quality. Here's some from Toyota's website
ICEBERG

Also, you'll notice that these pics show the older 6 spoke rims, not the newer 5 spoke version as pictured (above) on the new models that just arrived.

mmmm, sandstorm
 
The paint code for iceberg is the same code as the roof. You know that they are just replacing colors in the picture, right? They aren't really taking pictures of each color.

I would tend to trust the pictures that metaltech took over the ones on the Canada site. The "Sandstorm" looks different between Canada and US.

the holding lot pics are fake?

No.
Woody is saying that the ones from Toyota Canada are. Although if they are just changing the color of the 07 pics, I don't know why they can't copy/paste the roof color to the body (for the Iceberg edition).

No -- I'm saying I would trust the colors in the "holding lot" pics before the toyota.ca ones. The holding lot pics were taken by Metal tech - Mark.

I don't think you'll see a white one for several months.

Apparently the white ones will be used for their Trails Team Edition (replacement for the TRD SE, which was all black).
 
New Colors

You guys are all wrong

Yes, Brick and "tan" will be new colors -- a maroon metallic, and a beige metallic. Black Cherry is eliminated.

I'm on SoCal on business and went by a dealer here. Numerous 08's on the lot with two each Brick and Sandstorm. BTW they are NOT metallic. The holding lot pics are dead on in terms of color. No Iceberg! Perhaps a run by the Long Beach port is necessary.
