This car has got forest green paint with tan and brown pinstripes, anyhow, from what I see that paint only was available in japan? Would someone be able to tell me anything about this car? Was it custom ordered or what?

hrm... well, I looked it up, and it didn't tell me squat... from what I can see the paint code doesn't exist... but then again I don't actually have the paint code. I need to have my buddy take a look at the car (its a few hundred miles away) But from my experience... the paint on the car is factory... and it is a forest green :-/ I will need to get paint for this car at some point.

Look at the door jamb for the color code and post it here. If you have an early 89 it'll be on the metal plate stamped to the fire wall. Get it and PosT back.

Green... not a common color here in North America. If I remember correctly, the only car that had this color from factory was the JZA70, Green Mica Pearl was the name... correct me if I'm wrong please, but it's a really nice looking color on the Mk3, not sure why it wasn't sold here in the US. I forget the paint code, but I have it on the firewall plate that came with my engine/trans when I bought it.

alright... think I finally got it..... paint code appears to be "204" hope that's it...

paint appears to be quite old.... it's in the doors, and under the carpet.... car has tan leather interior with tripple pinstripes.... one light tan and 2 dark tan stripes.

OH, BTW it's an 87 and it was not in the door jamb... it was on the firewall.

anyhow... the car needs to be re-painted... and I want to keep the color. Any help would be much appreciated.

EDIT: dammit! that's a paint code for black. WTH now? anyone know if these cars came with tripple pinstripes like that? i know i've heard of people spotting forest green 87's and couldn't figure out what the hell was up with it. :-/

alright... I wouldn change the thread title... but I can't..... gonna make a new one.
