Hi!
I know that QuickSand is 2011 color and still not so many on the road.
But I'm sure not only me but many people on this forum are interested to see side by side FJs with these two different but very similar colors.
Thanks in advance

I don't think that in OZ u will have Sandstorm, because 2011 is the first year of FJ in your region.
Thanks for the input, hope some forum member will respond to this.
BTW how is it there people start buying it or still not so much.
I bought my FJ in UAE in october 2007, but now you can't drive even 5km without seeing FJ.

PS.
Pics of new blue next to old blue will also interesting to see

Hi
I have obtained a colour sheet for the FJ Cruiser colours when released here next month and some of the colours have different names to the ones you have in America,our Army green will be called Jungle,Cavalry will be called Military Blue,Sun Fusion will be Hornet Yellow,this colour will only be available for a brief period on release as will be Voodoo Blue. Last but not least will be Quicksand,this colour will be called Sandstorm in Oz. I do not understand why the different names,makes no sense to me

Topalev,

You asked...and here it is. :clap:

We just had a run today on the Gunsight Pass trail south of Tucson. Luckily, I was following a nice Sandstorm FJ most of the day and have some comparison photos.

What do you think?

 

[BrutusII]

Nice color, thanks for posting them!

AZFJTOY, thanks for posting photos.
You got nice ride.
I like quicksand more than sandstorm.
New color is a bit more brownish vs old milkish beige color.

I think you should black out your silver parts and paint wheels body color, than your FJ will have only 3 colors, white roof, quicksand(car and rims) and black on the bottom.

Just a suggestion, everyone has different taste


now we need to find new blue vs old, and than it will be very useful thread

If someone has more pics color VS color, don't hesitate, just post it here

Here's a pictures at the meeting point before our outing last weekend with the UAE FJ group. You can see that parked next to each other the Quicksand makes the Sandstorm look almost white.

lol I didn't even realize they had another color change... I like it though, much more similar to the old FJ color. :cheers:

 

[Brettnyt]

I saw a quicksand the other day and thought it was an aftermarket respray. Nice color!

 

[Apexbasher]

I'm thinking I really like this Quicksand color! This would be the only other color I would have for my FJ, I'm pretty sure. But I'd probably still go with Voodoo Blue a third time, because I can SEE it while I'm out and about in the forests of the Eastern US. All the other colors the FJ has been draped in simply blend-in to the foliage after a number of yards.

I got the only one in the area. The dealership here had to trade for mine. The only one the found was 200 miles away.

Question for all the sandstorm and now quicksand owners. Have you ever found sand colored tires? I would think the military would possibly make sand colored tires for their vehicles in the desert? Just an idea, google image wasn't helpful and I gave up looking.

 

[Topalev]

1.military guys doesn't paint their tires.
(for example here in middle east they are using color something between sandstorm and quicksand color for their car and rims they leave unpainted front and rear lights, windows and tires)
2.it is pointless to paint tires because paint will gone after just a bit of driving+if u do desert driving paint will be gone even faster, sand driving has same impact on paint as sand paper)))

 

[RaDtEcH]

These colors are the least of my favorites with the Sandstorm taking the bottom spot, but on the other hand the Iceberg is one of my favorites.

I'll get some pictures of Voodoo vs. Cavalry Blue this weekend.
