I sincerely appreciate the clarification. Being a little shade deficient doesn't help and looking under fluorescent lighting doesn't help either. I am going to get several colors mixed up and spray them on the underside and rotate it upside down and make my decision. I really like that basic color but want it deep and metallic if this makes any sense at all. Once again, thanks. Bill

My car was sprayed in Sherwin Williams. The painters used my original paint chip sheet and my body matches the chip pretty much dead on. But that doesn't mean it would mach an original paint car. Even if you found a car with it's original paint, it would no longer match the original color after so many years.

Without another car the same color to park side-by-side, who would be able to tell the slight difference?

I get plenty of compliments on my color:
