ok i am hella-confused now, i read the first post wrong, for some reason I thought the VIN did have a color code, my mistake.
Thanks!

No paint codes in the VIN. But, there should be a paint code on the driver's side door tag.

Paint colors - chart...

Hey anyone know where to find samples or examples of all the paint colors used in a certain year? I have a 91 coupe and its the oxford white, but i'm thinking about going another color, but i'd only go to another stock color i think.

thanks
joe

If all else fails, just start taking things off to find a part of the car that was not painted again. When people get their car repainted, they usually don't get the engine bay painted. So it should still be the original color. If that was painted, then lift the carpet and see what color the floor is.

T-Tops

I have a 1986 t-top Capri RS. Black and charcoal exterior, tan interior, 5 speed with air. I know that 3,303 1986 RS cars were made, but I dont know how to get a breakdown by colour. Of that 3,303 cars 96 were hardtops and approximately 300 had sunroofs. So the math indicates that the other 2,900 or so cars were T-tops. The plan was for all of the '86's to be T-tops but the dealers wouldn't have it.
If anyone can help me with a more comprehensive number breakdown I would really appreciate it.

[Calemont]

1988 GT Convertible here (P45E on the VIN), but the door sticker lists 66B under the exterior color code. I've always been under the impression that it's the Dark Grey Metallic, but I don't see that listed, either.

Scratch that -- just checked behind the headlight and it looks like 1D:

1D Smoke Poly
LX 5.0 Sedan (P40E): 452
LX 5.0 Hatchback (P41E): 1,629
LX 5.0 Convertible (P44E): 277
GT Hatchback (P42E): 5,075
GT Convertible (P45E): 902
