The definitive paint thread. Nuff said. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

*exitspeed* · 01-21-2008, 01:58 PM

Post pics of awesome paint jobs/colors. Stock paint or not stock paint. The point of this thread is to compile all the hottest paint colors under the sun.

Try and keep the chat to a minimum.

Also, try and actually post a pic of the color not just the name. Also post the color code if you have it.

I'll start it off with the most sweated, but never actually done, 240 color of all time.

Lavender Frost Metallic. LG1. 1989 OEM color. Coupe only.

*exitspeed* · 01-21-2008, 02:09 PM

devonkyle77 · 01-21-2008, 02:12 PM

oem kh3 (superblack) is the hottest color ever

axiomatik · 01-21-2008, 02:14 PM

I really like the paint on my '98 Jeep Cherokee. On cloudy days it has a maroon look to it, but on sunny days, it's a fantastice metallic red with yellow pearl. Looks great in the sun.

This pic doesn't really do it justice, but you can see the pearl in the front fender.

PPG's Candy Brandy Wine

s13gold · 01-21-2008, 02:17 PM

i need a bigger pix LOL.

i will get the code later.

*exitspeed* · 01-21-2008, 02:20 PM

I had this color on my Eclipse GT. I really liked it. It's called Patriot Pearl Red. I'm pretty sure it was available on 3rd gen Eclipse years. R70

JoeC1982 · 01-21-2008, 02:26 PM

i used to work for Mitsubishi, i think the dark red as pictured is actually called Ultra Red Pearl, the patriot is just a regular bright red. the ultra is available on the new eclipses as well.

Nope. That's what I thought when I bought the car too. The other red was called Sorano Red or something like that. You would think the reg. red would be the Patriot color, but it's opposite.

That's the Versace Murci which was an extremely limited run so not sure that its a factory white, even though now that I think about it the only differences on it where mostly interior bits, looks cool as fawk but strictly cosmetic, and what seemed like a vinyl sticker on either side of the car and of course the blk wheels...so maybe it is a stock color.

From what I remember it was sort of pearl-ish compared to the bright white Gallardos I've seen but with all the damn lights in that place and the hot chicks lambo has at their stand its sort of hard to tell.

Ok edit- Found the pics of it real quick and I was mistaken, there were 2 white Murcis there that day, the pearl one was the drop top and the Versace one was the bright one, heres some pics, you can see the difference right away in the first pic..
