    Does anyone know if the paint on a WRB 2015 STi tri-coat or not? I did a bunch of googling and some say it is and some say it's not. Perhaps someone who works for a dealership can help answer.

    It is not a tri coat but there is pearl additive mixed in. Paint code is 02C.

    I emailed SOA and they said it's a 2 step process even though many forums suggested that it's tri-coat.
