Don't think they are right, Black Sapphire is 475 (engrained in my memory last the last 7 digits of my VIN )

Think that maybe qty produced by colour for USA

I just googled BMW 478 paint code and it came back with a sea of results relating to SATINBEIGE, not Interlagos Blue. What site is this info from?

 

[mr wilks]

Came up on a google search but from a american site , would they have different codes ?

I'm sure that's qty produced not paint codes.

Wheres the link?

Isn't the paint code for each vehicle found under the bonnet on one of the front suspension turrets?

either that or Door jam from memory

 

[ncrossy1980]

Aye I think that list looks more like quantity of cars sold in that colour

 

[Taz]

they look more like quatanties than colour codes

in the uk there are 588 MC's and 617 MR's

 

[srhutch]

Is there an echo in here :lol:

 

[Taz]

this is info i hve:

 

[srhutch]

I could tell it's not a UK list just by looking at the number of Alpine white's

 

[Taz]

i have all the paint codes but they are on my other laptop

i have a database of all right hand drive coupes

 

[flimper]

Isn't Interlagos Blue coded A30?
