well ... it's under neon lighting so all bets are pretty much off until you see it outside in daylight, But my money is on Paint to Sample code 998 from a previous model year .. I don't think it's Zenith .. that is much more blue than this car .. It's not Viola Metallic, that's much darker:


and it's certainly not Amaranth Violet as you can plainly see ...

that's an enamel factory color and they didn't make a metallic version ..

Have somebody open the trunk and read the color name and code on the sticker on the drivers side fender bulkhead .. and match it to the color code on the under hood option code sticker .. end of mystery.

A quick search reveals the same photo and lists the color as Violet Blue.
