Cameras don't even do the color justice, out in the sunlight it it looks even better. Looks like the same color my friend just painted his mustang.

purdy car.

I'd love to get some candy pearl color on mine. I wanted orange, but I still want to paint my MGB a similar color to your 7.

I wonder what color would look good on my car....?

SoRRow

once the car is engineered you can get it regoed and drive it on the street,
they are pretty tough but not too bad,

a mate is driving around in a mini tubbed rx3 at the moment with a cage like mine and 15x10's on the back!!

1998-2001 E043 or E047, i think, that is the Aus code for it,

looks identical to the mustang, maybe you could ask him what the colour code he has is!

That's my son. With only two seats he gets to come but mom has to stay home! LOL.

You guys don't know the funniest part about the color though. I'm a computer tech for a school board and our offices are located at one of our biggest schools. When the buses roll in, sometimes I can't find my car! I painted it myself and it came out ok but it just wasn't the same color as on the 1in by 1in sample! One thing is for sure, it gets alot of looks at cruise night.
