Wow, What a great response.

I agree that it might not be a factory color. It appears to be too light for "light yellow". It is however the type of color I am looking for. Nice period subltle color.

Zendalar, I think that is a great idea of mixing in white(or adding less yellow tint) to get the correct effect. Not sure if its a matte finish. I have another pict of the car and the sun has quite a glare.

Bruno, I have a similar listing of yellow paint codes(in English). Talbot yellow is too yellow. Lemon Yellow is too bright, similar to the signal yellow. It seems that every picture I see of "light yellow" cars is different. Lighting, fading, and dirt can change the color dramatically.

BTW, Does anyone know whose car this is? Maybe someone was at this years TdF and met/talked to the owners or drivers.


Thanks again for every ones help.
