Not a lot of them came to the US but I believe the paint code is Arctic White but right now I'm brain farting and am not 100% sure.

are you getting your car repainted or
just a part??

IMO Mazda white that came on the RX7's
were not bright enough. More of a creamy
white. So if you are getting your car painted,
I would go with the brightest white possible.

They imported only 1 "Pearly White" FD, all the others were Chaste. I agree with WhiteRX, the Chaste is not bright enough.

Chaste White

GSRSOL is correct there was only on Pearl White one in 94 only and the only years Chaste White was a color was 94 & 95 I'll check my car and see if I can find a paint code on it. Ok I looked on my car and the color code is "PT" I checked on my Montego Blue one and it had a paint code on "MB" Hope this helps you. Jack

You can try calling the dealerships and getting the code but may be hard since there was only 1 of it's kind.

Do they let you examine the car they have sitting in the Mazda headquarters in Irvine?

As hard as it's going to be to get that code I think you'd be better off going with a different white.
