Speaking of apperance does anyone have all the original color listings that 3rd Gen Accords came in. My car is like a brown/champagne color, but I don't know the official name of the color.

Thanks for the info. So the official color of my car is Champagne Beige Metallic Clearcoat. No more calling her just "brown"

If your car is the same color as my car (see the banner in the signature), the official title is "seattle silver".

One of the colors for an SE-i is Brittany Blue Metallic. I personally love this color, but I don't know the paint code.

i haven't checked that paint codes yet but me and my girlfriend both have that beige tan color. hers is an 88 coupe and mine is an 86 sedan and even though they look the same they are 2 distinctly different colors. at first i thought mine just might be more weathered or time has just made them both look a bit different, but when you look a little closer they are totally not the same. i will have to check the paint codes.

no, i'm the second owner, but the first owner is good friends with my family. and her husband restores MGs, so he takes care of his cars. and i also will be the last owner of my car.

And coupes too. The interior for this color is Type H or I think it's called Maroon. Need to check brochure.

Alright guys I checked this thread and well my paint code is YR-94M-3 Kinda f*cked up isn't it? Does anyone know what that is? I thought it was Seattle Silver b/c I was looking at some spray paints at the parts store and it looked damn close. And the YR-94M's are Seattle Silver but what the heck does that -3 at the end mean? Thanks a lot.

i read somewhere that there were a few different Seattle Silvers...one is bluer...one is greyer...one is regular...its just a rough guess but if i remember right its something like that...not sure which numbers apply to which color though

My Se-i is Tuscany Taupe Metallic. It's Canadian so I don't know if that makes a difference. It's a very sexy color, especialy in the rain.

Anyway, though the color is listed on paintscratch, it is very hard to get. I needed to spray over some bodywork and had to get it mixed at a paint shop. They didn't have it and couldn't even order it at Canadian Tire or anywhere else. This is kind of strange, because if you need the champagne color, you can get it no prob. Maybe there weren't many Tuscany Taupe Metallic cars produced.
