There are also 5 shades of lucerne silver, which makes it even more fun when trying to get a paint match!

3E5 never came in Rev 1, and go too google images and search on "crimson red mr2" and change the search options for the image size. :)

The latter. Zircon Blue - colour code 8J2.

OK, so there are all these Super Reds and a Crimson Red. (The latter one is my best guess.)

But are the codes recorded on the bodywork somewhere -- on a sticker, maybe -- as is common inscrutable European practice?

Am Pretty sure on the bulkhead in front of the driver (in the frunk) it is stamped into the panel.

Could you add the individual codes for Sonic Shadow to the OP? Body is 199 Lucerne Silver, roof is 205 Satin Black Metallic, and rubstrips / mirrors are 202 Astral black.

Body is not Lucerne Silver Gaz....
Rach has an anni and sat next to my Sonic Shadow it's a different colour. I also remember Alan (BlackIce2) having one of his headlight covers done in Lucerne and came out distinctly different. However ... he then had it done Nickel Silver (not sure on the code) which was a spot on match. :th:

Which begs the question, do they both have the same colour code on the panel in the frunk?
If not, what are they?
