I am repainting my car this spring and wondered what the paint code was for the maroon red? I have only seen a few cars in this color, and I think Sentra SE-R's could be had in the same color in 94.

I know the color I want is not Aztec Red, and I don't think the color I am after is Ruby Pearl ( ALO )

Any help greatly appreciated.

Will

94 Vert.

Other way around.

Cherry red pearl is a burgundy color, aztek red is the bright red.

aztec red look ok, very common on 240s though. i like cherry red pearl because its darker and have glitter in it.

The FAQ thread at the top:zerothread/199318

Contains the thread link for production by colors/years:zerothread/168407

CA emissions is probably on the door jam sticker or apart of the VIN. A very small chance a car on the east coast is from CA though.
