Hello all,
I'm a newbie here, from the US. Just back from a week in Paris where I saw plenty of the new Cinquecento's (and Abarths!).

I'm not too familiar with paint codes and how exactly they work, but can anyone provide a paint code that a US supplier would be able to use to mix the Fiat 500 color photographed below? It's an off-white metallic, I'd call it 'Cream' or 'Ivory'. It did not appear to be pearlescent. I could not determine the name from an online search of available Fiat 500 colors.

Any help is appreciated.
- Art




BACKGROUND:

I really fell for this color and wish to use it here in the US on a 1965 Plymouth which was originally a similar "SS1 Ivory" in a very boring straight enamel.

The choice of a Fiat color is congruous with a tongue-in-cheek nod to Fiat's current ownership of Chrysler.

My "paint man" doesn't have access to a code he can use to order Fiat colors from a US paint supplier. There are of course options in the US brands, but it would be fun to get a genuine Fiat color on it.

The US market is apparently only going to get Corso Rosso, White and Metallic Grey if they arrive here.

Cheers,
- A.

Hi Art,

The paint colour in question is Funk White and it is a pearlescent paint, however varying types of light and/or perspective can sometimes make it appear differently.

Paint codes for UK models are listed here (see post 5) but if you have any questions PM Chris and he will be able to help you out.

Cheers

Tony
