Either I'll have to get some good pictures or we'll have to wait until Bonnie Fest '05.
Or, I can just go get my RPO code for the paint and we can compare.

here'* the best photo I can find showing Gold Fire Mist off:


A not couple so good photo of Gold Fire Mist not in direct sun light




A "Champagne" B-ville not in direct sun light


A 'Champagne' in the sun



And lastly, our cars

Mine paint is called "medium jade grey metallic". I have the 42U exterior color code. It comes up as Olive Mist Metallic, but I talked to GM and they said that that was an error in their RPO look-up system. Not sure if it was just for '96 though, didn't think to ask.
