Steve16v 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Quick colour question guys...... I have a 1990 corrado in Blue LC5Z.... when the sun shines the car looks almost purple... Have been talking to a few lads over here (There are a load of Blue C's over here too!!) and there is a bit of confusion over the colour on my car (Mainly beacuse they haven't seen one turn as purple as mine does in the sun). I know LC5Z was only used for a year or 2 but does anyone know if there were slighly different shades of it or is this just the way the paint is?? Cheers :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted June 12, 2006 Yeah - as Roddy says, most Corrado pearl paints take on a very different colour depending on the sunshine! Always loved the colour some VR's came in - is it Midnight Blue / Black? Basically looks like a black car until the sun comes out and it has a beautiful dark blue sparkle to it.. its triffic! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
