1985 GSL-SE Factory Colors?

Hi All -

Does anyone know what the factory exterior and interior color options were for the 1985 RX-7 GSL-SE?

I'd like to repaint a 1985 GSL-SE, and I want to pick a color that is as close to the original factory colors as possible.

Any links to relevant sites showing the color options would be appreciated greatly.

Thanks!

- Arutau

Well if you'd like to see actual colors you can try www.paintscratch.com

Another color offered in late '85, that almost every chart does list, is exterior color code 3A (Royal Maroon), which is a rare factory color for '85 models. It was also used on the '86-'87 Rx-7's

Sorry I just reread what I wrote and I meant to say doesn't list, not does list. Woo hoo! 3A is getting some recognition!
