5th Gen T4R Color Distribution
Does anyone have access to data that shows the distribution of 5th Gen T4R colors to date? I suspect Blizzard Pearl is the most popular. I have a Blizzard Pearl, there is a Blizzard Pearl at work and in my neigborhood. And it seems like lately all the new T4R are Blizzard Pearl.

I am beginning to regret no getting a Salsa Red T4R as it is rare...

I saw a report last week for production and if I recall properly BP was by far the highest number.

I bought one last week. For me, I wanted the beige leather, and my choices were black, red, or BP. I've had a few black vehicles and wanted to take a break from the maintenance, and not a red fan, so it came down to the white, which I think looks good on the 4runner.

My first white vehicle ever in over 20 vehicles.

i originally had my heart set on a silver Trail; had a deal on the table for one, in fact. then, at the 11th hour, i reconsidered and got a salsa red from another dealer. i'm typically not one for red vehicles, but the salsa is a very attractive, complex, almost burgundy color—not fire-engine red. nearly a year later and i'm still super happy with that snap decision. i've only seen one other red one in all that time.

whatever the color, enjoy your new rig!

No, I mispoke/too soon. My dealer had a report at his desk that he gave me the vehicles ordered by color in the region and I thought he said BP was the highest number. I may be wrong.

I've seen ONE salsa red T4R (my preferred color if i ever get around to pulling the trigger). I've seen ONE in that gorgeous blue, as well.

I've seen a handful of blacks and a couple of blizzard pearls.

By far, I see silver and magnetic grey the most. I've seen both colors dozens of times.

My experience in color sightings:

1) Silver
2) Magnetic Gray
3) Blizzard Pearl
4) Black
5) Salsa Red

I have never seen the Shoreline Blue. I don't believe it exists and that those that have posted photos of theirs just photoshopped the color.

My guess on the distribution on the west side of Houston :

Blizzard Pearl 50%
Silver 20%
Black 20%
Magnetic Grey 10%

I have a Blizzard Pearl myself. I actually wanted black originally and I guess BP is popular because it's very hot in the summer here.

I haven't seen red or blue yet.

Gray!!!!
Most dealers stock either the dark grey or the silver since they are neutral colors that most customers will consider. I would be surprised if BP is the greatest selling color. And there are a few blues in the Northwest, but silver and grey seem to dominate the lots.

I have seen one other Blizzard Pearl, but 3 or 4 Silver and Magnetic Grey. The only red I have seen was on the dealer lot.
