Default VM interior code '82

I have searched far and wide to find what color code VM is for a 1982 928. It's some kind of beige I believe, but not sure if it's gray beige, cashmere beige, champagne beige, luxor beige, etc. FWIW, VW shows up as luxor beige on 2015-ish Cayennes.

Thanks in advance for any help.

VM is interior trim in beige partial leather, with leather seats (backrest and sides) and leather seat inlay

I should have added that in 1982 there were only four standard factory interior colors - black, dark blue, brown and beige.

This is a huge help. Thank you very much. Do you know if the beige interior in 1982 was what is called champagne beige or some other shade like cashmere beige or Luxor beige?

Not really. The 1982 descriptions ("brown", "beige" etc) aren't very helpful when trying to match them against the various newer shades. I've had to resort to getting supplier samples to check if my 1982 "brown" is "natural brown", "dark brown" or "chocolate brown", for instance. You might need to do the same thing. World Upholstery supply free samples.
