Hi everyone

Does anyone know what the standard exterior color options are for a 95-97 Metro? I saw a 97 that was in a dark, dark green and I loved it. I'm looking at buying a 96 Metro that was advertised as dark green but the photos look more like a blue/green aqua color. I'm trying to figure out what the standard color options were, because if blue/green wasn't one of them, then the color on the photos must be off.
Sidenote - does anyone know if there's a letter in the VIN that will verify the dark green or green/blue color code for me?

Thanks!

My car is that hard to define aqua-like blue/green. It is standard. There is also a forest green stock colour.

The paint codes for our cars is on a lable affixed to the particle-board cover over the spare tire (hopefully its still there!). Here is what to look for:

Then go here and enter the code to determine what it's called and what shade it is:

Hope this helps! :)
