2moaox2 - all Maximas come from the same assembly plant, and 'winter frost' is the only white Nissan shows for the Maxima in any documentation I can find.
It would not make sense to have another slight variation of an existing color just for Canada. This would require duplication of all documentation, pamphlets, booklets, websites, etc that show the Maxima colors.
The three coat pearl finish you say you can order is clearly a dealer-handled option either done by the dealer or by an independent contractor he uses.
I do like the pearlescent shade of white, and hope it replaces the 'winter frost' by the '06 edition.

The gauge cluster is pretty easy to swap out. The day time running lights are in our light clusters, they are either turned off somewhere in the computer, or there are no bulbs 
A different color of paint just for canada seems odd

The 04 white has some pearl to it in the sun although nothing like the 02/03's Glacier Pearl/Pikes Peak white 350z's both QX1 same color different names. It seems to be more like the Icelandic Pearl white on the 00/01's.

well, it seems like they have 2 different whites for Canada and US, or else it's just named differently.

yeah, but what I'm asking in this thread is how it looks with the 3-coat pearl on it like it says on the nissan canada site.
