Color of my car?
 
Hey guys I hope you can help solve a puzzle for me. I dont know what the techinical color of my car is. I keep seeing Grey Lustre and Polished Titanium. Its a grey color with lots of speckles in it. I keep trying to get my homepage working but I am having technical issues uploading the image on cardomain.com. I thought most cars had a sticker somewhere but I couldnt locate it. Mine is the Titanium Edition. Hopefully I can get my pics up soon on that website.

light gray - polished titanium
dark gray - grey luster

If its dark grey, chances are its its either that Gray Lustre or that green/grey color available exclusively on TE models (I can't recall what the color is? Titanium grey?)

HotMax03 12-09-2004 06:12 PM

I do believe its Titanium something. The grey is not a solid color. Its got lots of speckles and its highly visible in the sun. Does that help?

all colors have the "speckles" to reflect light to make the car shine more

Is it dark grey? I'd assume if it was Polished Titanium he'd say it was silver looking.

Look for the paint code. I’m not sure off hand where it’s located – maybe under the hood. If it’s paint code WV2 it’s Polished Titanium. This color was only available with the Titanium Edition.

TitanMax 12-10-2004 05:33 AM

Grey Lustre paint code is KV3.

Ryans Maxima 12-10-2004 05:35 AM

THe paint code is a 3 digit combiniation found in the door jam.

I want to say its Polished Titanium. Its not a dark dark grey, but certainly not the Sheer Silver color. Maybe somewhere in between. I do have the Titanium Edition. I guess I will stay with Polished Titanium (It sounds cooler lol). If anyone knows where the paint code is located let me know. Thanks for your guys imput.

Read Ryans Maxima's post, right above your last one. He says where the paint code is and even has a link to the different codes for each color.

By the way, I was under the impression that the color of my car was Sterling Mist, but apparently it's ChipsDeluxe. :grinno:

HotMax03 12-10-2004 10:21 AM

Alrighty!!!! Problem solved, its KV3 which is Grey Lustre. Damn. Polished Titanium just sounds better, although I still love my color!!!

I don't really understand how you could've at all thought you had a silver colored car.

Sterling Mist looks best on the 97-99 SE's by far, yours look great.

Okay dude, before you make a post try reading what I have said...where did I mention my car was silver? In fact I said I know its not a sheer silver. Thanks for your half smart comment dude!

I like Grey Lustre much more than Polished Titanium, so there's nothing to be sorry about :D I love, love, love it! Polished titanium is the same exact color as Diamond graphite on the G35, which I just see all over the place (not on Maximas but still). I wish the G was available in Grey Lustre, it's just gorgeous!
