Default Thinking about going White?

I am thinking about painting my car white with black hockey stripes, I want a bright white not a creamy or metallic color. I was looking at some cars and was wondering what white they used. I don’t have any real question just wondering if anyone had some input.

Just wondering if anyone knows some to look out for. It seems that that older cars are not as bright, but that may be from age or the paint long ago. For example is the Can-Am white from a 69 Corvette very bright?

Toyota "Super White" , code "040", formula number 90288, is a really crisp, very bright white.

Been used for many model years, the particular code I gave is 2006 model year.

Do a google search for "toyota super white" and you should be able to find tons of pics, better yet just visit your local Toyota dealer and check the sticker for the paint code and color name.

If you are looking at older white cars, yes many tended to yellow with the passage of time / UV exposure....
