What color is my Maxima
hey guys, I'm new on this forum and new to the Nissan scene. I just picked up my '03 last monday. I'm loving the car even more every single time i drive it. But what I'd like to know is what is the official color names for the 5th gen maxima's. I looked up the Infiniti website and the color that came close to it was Desert Platinum, is that correct? please help!

If not, you've probably got "Sterling Mist" which looks silver, but not sand colored... or "Sunlit Sand" which looks more of a sand/gold color..
Hope that helps you out..
Here are the color codes if you're interested (found inside driver side door)
QX1 Glacier Pearl, Pearlcoat N/C
KV3 Gray Lustre, Metallic N/C
BW9 Majestic Blue, Pearlcoat N/C
AX5 Merlot, Pearlcoat N/C
WV2 Polished Titanium, Metallic N/C
KY1 Sheer Silver, Metallic N/C
KT3 Sterling Mist, Metallic N/C
EV0 Sunlit Sand, Metallic N/C
KH3 Super Black, Basic N/C

Infiniti's "Diamond Graphite" would be comparable to Nissan's "Polished Titanium"
Infiniti's "Brilliant Silver" = Nissan's "Sheer Silver"
Infiniti's "Golden Sand" = Nissan's "Sunlit Sand"
im not saying these color's have the same paint codes. its just a reference for people to get an idea of the color names.

It does have a slight pearl-ish look to it up close...
Well, maybe not, others have reported that it got their colors way wrong
