I love finding information out about my car, as I am sure many of us petrolheads do, regardless of what we drive! :)

I was browsing around the ‘net last night and came across paint code charts for all he Hyundai models from my car’s model year (2009). My car is painted in by far the most common color for the 2006-2010 Accent sedans/hatchbacks, i.e. paint code ‘2M’, called ‘Charcoal Gray Pearl’...oddly enough, this same paint code seems to have been called different names in different markets, despite being literally the same color and paint code. The official touch-up paint pen that came with my car lists the color as being ‘Midnight Gray Metallic’.

I tend to call it the latter as the paint is definitely more metallic than pearl! I’ve always liked the rare ‘Apple Green’ color on my generation of Accent hatchback, nice to see something more bright and cheerful!

My old 2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5TS wagon was code 07V - ‘Savannah Green Metallic’..

What color/colors did/does your car come in Oppo?

The Lancia Monte/Scorpion only came in 8 colors through its run that I know of. Most are pretty standard colors although they’re “green/verde” is more of a seafoam green or teal than a standard green.

Fieros came in less colors apparently the factory was only set up to run 4 colors at a time, so I’ve heard

Although they did offer a bright blue color and a yellow for one year each.

In the BMW community (at least with M cars) you can dig as deep as how many cars were produced each year in a particular color combination (interior/exterior) with particular options etc...

With my Ranger I took me more time than I’d like to admit to find out what the Red was actually called (Vermillion)

The availability of colors on the M3 depend on the year and aren’t limited to factory offerings if you want to spend silly money for an “individual” color. That said the only ones that matter are:

Phoenix Yellow

Laguna Seca Blue

Imola Red

Techno Violet

Atacama Yellow

Dakar Yellow

Oxford Green

Estoril Blue

Avus Blue

Fintail era MB offered plenty of choice :

My car is DB334.

I can only find a list for modern cars, no paint chip/samples, but I think the W212 had a dozen colors available.

Galaxie: Corinthian White on Champagne Poly.

Rover was Poppy Red like this one originally, but I repainted in Marine Blue. Only other colors were Mint Green, Bronze Green, Limestone, and Sand.

My Ranchero has no paint code on the door, but was painted this shade of green as part of a fleet special order. Which fleet is likely is an exercise to the reader:

My W124 is Rauchsilber . Or as this chart terms it, Smoke Silver Poly.

IIRC I previously had the Lincoln decoded as Peacock Green, but it’s actually closer to the Palm Green in this sample.

Some other fun options like Claret and Bolero Red and Pearl Blue and Cameo Rose were available.

D oes my what comes in?

Seriously though the 40th Anniversary Land Cruiser only came in 2 colors.

Antique Sage Pearl (old shiney brown)

Dark Emerald Pearl (swoon)

Mine is the former.

1995 Mustang:

Mine’s E9, but it’s more of a “Laser Pink Metallic” nowadays. Still see glimpses of the original shade in places like door jambs, though. Gorgeous  color when it’s not faded.

Aside from the bright red, the Solstice actually started off with the typical German rainbow.

I’m going to call it typical German madness that they had such a complete spectrum from gray to blue and green in tiny steps with infinitesimal tint variations in amount of green, etc....

German man: “VERDAMMT, I want the Tundra G reen! Do you think simple ordinary Green has the faint hint of silver that I want?”

My Mini was offered with almost as many upholstery options as it was paint colors (ignoring the fact that each paint color could also be paired with a matching color roof/mirrors or have a black or white roof) . Mines Pure Silver with a black roof and the Panther Black/Gray cloth interior.

In 2005 Mini offered a stunning paint called Purple Haze. It was a one year only color and the general consensus is that it is the rarest Mini. I’ve seen 3 2006 GPs and still haven’t seen a Purple Haze car in the flesh, that’s how rare they are.

Also, I’m a total sucker for deep, wet looking colors.

Mine is one of the silvers (I think the electric, but I guess I’d need to check the pain code). I don’t think it’s a great color for the car, Ruby Red, Magic Blue, or Barents Blue all would have been nicer choices.

Ford had a bunch of cool names for colors for FOSTs. Mine is a new color this year... and its just called blue metallic. Wowza.

Pontiac changed the paint codes every year, and bothered to do interesting names as well. My t/a is in nocturne blue If you see a theme here, its not an accident. If you are interested:

The brighter blue was my preference, I thought a lot about the yellow but couldn't do it as a DD, then I saw my color and fell in love. Enough color to be interesting, not enough to shout "LOOK AT ME!".

There are two Lotus Elises of that generation near here, the ONLY ones I’ve ever seen anywhere in the province. One is that brilliant orange (which is my favorite kind of orange!) and the other is that awesome lime green! Both owners have done some cool mods to them as well...very cool to see them out and about! :D

When I was looking for my ’ 95, I wanted a blue one. I don’t remember which shade of blue I found , but it had an automatic, so I kept looking . Every once in a while I think about repainting this one someday, but it won’t be a color change because I don’t want mismatched door jambs, firewall, etc. and I ’m not going to go through all the trouble of removing the engine and such for that .

My car’s specific trim came in five colors , and only one of them is actually a color: black, silver, matte silver, white, and red. Mine is black.

My 4Runner came in 8 colors (2005). I suspect mine is the second-most common color, if not the most common: Titanium Metallic.

My car came in a pretty good variety! Some colors are more rare than others, like the thundercloud metallic! T hat color is by far the most beautiful silver you’ll probably ever see stock... Unfortunately, my sportcross came in millennium silver metallic, which is the MOST BASIC and only ugly when its next to my boyfriends thundercloud IS300. My brother had an 01 in Diamond white pearl with a manual/LSD.... most rare combo for our cars and he let it go at a bargain... what a shame.

It looks great on 3rd gens, but unfortunately it looks like shit on 4th-gen 4Runners because it was only available in 2003 , which have a bunch of ugly gray body cladding that has since faded.

It was an uncommon color on Impreza sedans of that gen, but somewhat more common on the Impreza Outbacks/Impreza wagons.

It was a nice deep green with a very nice extra sheen when the sun hit it! :)
