I’m thinking either Sub-Lime or Plum Crazy
Any better official color names out there?

Love those old Mopar names. GM has gotten clever lately with color names like Pull Me Over Red, Caught Red Handed Tint-coat, Blue Me Away Metallic, You Drive Me Grazy Metallic , and Black Meet Kettle Metallic.

I’m not too crazy about it but Furious Fuschsia which was an homage to Panther Pink.

The first one was for a one off for the Jeep Comanche Concept. The second was a fairly recent Fiat. After that I just winged it, most are old paint color jokes.

Thats the marketing department vs parts name mess. Back years ago there was a beige that was named 4-5 different names on brochures between division and even changed year to year in some makes for about 6 years. On the parts end it was light driftwood metallic in most years. Same part number the entire time.

I always preferred Go Mango.
Allegedly, this is a list of other names for Hi-Impact colors that Chrysler executives rejected:
Catch Me Copper
Unforseeable Fuicha
Statutory Grape
Gang Green
Well Red
Cost Of Living Rose
Fisher Body Rust
Hi-Ho Silver
Frank Lloyd White
