    I haven't been on here for quite a while.
    I saw the new white S2S in Ottawa, Canada. I think it looks beautiful. I would say "pearl / tooth enamel" would best describe what kind of white it is.

    You'd think the manufacturer would specify what the abbreviations mean somewhere in the book..
