seeing the turkis vs. taiga discussion along with other rare favorite colors. one of my favorites is ceylon. BMW 008 ceylon gold metallic has a range of color from a really nice gold to more of a brown gold or a brass gold. then there is the porsche gold metallic from the same era ... interesting enough it is color 088
the first is a very original coupe and my understanding is original paint
then some others - i know it is light dependent, more of the brown gold
then there is the 911s from the period
there is a lot of similarity of the 911 gold and the coupe at the top, the 911 is a little more yellow, but definitely doesn't have the brown tinge that some ceylon cars have. the mustang below is decidedly more orange of a gold ... but most of the mustangs of that period are more brown-golds.
