Hey everyone, I'll be getting a 95 240SX SE in a few weeks or so... Could someone tell me what the name of this color is because that's the color of the car. Anyone else out there have a 240 in this color? Any 240 owners in San Jose, CA?

P.S. How do you make links in these forums?

Anyone know what color this is? I'm pretty sure it was a factory color.

Thanks, I'm not sure if I'm gonna keep it that color or maybe change it when I get the JUN S14 body kit.

I was never a fan of any burgendy looking color either...but when i polished and buffed it up and noticed the metal flake (and #### is it noticable) &nbsp; I kinda grew to love the color.

Hehe...
I'm colorblind, but as far as I can tell, that picture does the color no justice. &nbsp;If it is the color of Rampid360's car, it should be a shade lighter and have some sort of lighting to prove that it isn't black at all.

yeah, but Blackfox said it's a 95, and Deep Fuschia was exclusive to 97-98 models only. I have seen that color before. It's close to Deep Fuschia, but I think it's called something else.

Tirerack only has &nbsp;the 97-98 model colors, &nbsp;like Silver Moss, Starfire Blue, which were not available in 95.

</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>good point...however the color in that pic (although not quite the color of the car he's actually getting) since the pic is a 97-98 is deep fushia.

DSC...if i ever got my car repainted it would probably be that color. &nbsp; Is it a metal flake? &nbsp;It really is a badass color
