What are you talking about? My se's paint barely even resembles that color!

In all seriousness, I swear that color changes on the day. Sometimes its green, or blue or grey

OP, did you find L6 on the car as your paint code? Another shade of blue used was V3, which is Tender Blue Metallic.





Seems like a lot of people get them confused since they are both considered a 'light' blue.
