Phantom discontinued, new OEM colors for 2023, A91-MT special edition(s)

[PearlSup]

For those of you who aren’t apart of the Facebook groups:

Looks like Phantom is no longer available. (Small flex ?)

EDIT: Turbulence gray also appears to be discontinued! If you got one with red interior… ?

EDIT #2: Tungsten also discont’d?

New colors: Stratosphere blue, Matte white, CU Later gray

I have not been able to find photos of the “CU Later gray”. Stratosphere blue and Matte white pictures are readily available.

Found a (poor quality) picture of the “CU Later gray”.

Looks like a replacement for Turbulence gray.

If this is true and turbulence gray is gone I'm about to be heartbroken cause I was hoping to switch mine out for a red interior one in a year.

If you really want that color combo, you can try to do it this year with a 2022.

CU Later Grey is basically BMW's Sparkling Kupfergrau

Pretty sick if that’s the case.

That was the color i wanted for my 2023 manual. WTF? I do like that grey on the A91 but i'm not paying the upcharge from the premium(It was $8k for a few CF bits). Looks like stratosphere blue it is.

Tungsten/ice silver too.

Interesting... Kupfergrau translates to Copper Grey. CU later Grey....CU, the periodic table abbreviation for copper as mentioned by @Guff. Clever indeed

I wonder if Toyota is really planning on discontinuing all these colors…

How does one maintain matte paint as you can’t polish it.. if you wax it it turns glossy..

And PPF, use matte clear bra?

I have XPEL stealth on the front half of mine. It’s honestly really easy to maintain. Mine is also fully ceramic coated. For washes, meguiars gold class works perfect however my detailer uses a special soap formulated for my ceramic coating. For just quick detailing, I use meguiars ultimate quick detailer and it doesn’t add any shine or harm the ceramic because it’s pH neutral

I’m using CG’s Matte Soap, Matte Quick Detailer & Sealant, and Jet Seal for Matte cars.

Ownership has been almost easier than gloss cars because less detailing products & ZERO swirls/light scratches visible.

I also have the luxury of keeping it garaged both at home & at work.
