Ok, so I just went through and read the original Japanese article that the Yahoo article links too, and half of the things they said weren't even in there. -_- There is no mention of the eyeshadow thing, like, at all. The relevant sentence ( ... )

Good info, thanks! I was wondering if someone who read Japanese would go to the source.

That's an awful lot to lose in translation. Who ever wrote the Yahoo article took a lot of liberties.

Yeah. I checked out the original Japanese as well. I mean the color names are a bit chintzy (Premier White Pearl, Premier Deep Mocha Pearl, Crystal Black Pearl (THOSE ARE THREE GENERATIONS OF POKEMON GAMES, NOT A CAR COLOR), and Pink-Gold Metallic) but overall not as bad as the English article made it out to be.

And yeah, other special features seem practical like the seat heaters for cold days (WHICH SOUND AWESOME) and the better distance lights for rainy weather.

lol my Scion's color is "black sand pearl"

I think it's fairly par for the course with car companies these days
