You should definitely go for yellow. Cool

I wouldn't do that, even if I would been forced by weapons Smile
Does the 2B8 code really contains two colors?
Yep, but beware: Toyota changed that colorcode from 1982 to 1983...
2B8 = Two-tone Silver Gray Metallic/Dark Gray Metallic (82) AND Two-tone Haze Gray Metallic/Gray Metallic (83)

See the 82 variant here:

It is the SE/SE coupe in this picture:

The interior of my car is beige-brown.
Seat carpets, flooer mats, etc. are beige,
hood, side of seats, armrest, etc. are brown.
I think i should choose some kind of beige or brown for passing the interior.
Could you recommend something?

BTW, thanks for the link to the catalogs... this is heaven Smile

Alright, getting paint tomorrow morning.

What would be the paint code/colour for this car, and what year?

Is that the two tone, or not?

Looks as though it might just be the shadow on the sides, not darker along bottom?

Aahhh I think I've got it figured out...

It's a colour for the GTTR, so must be either of these...

Anyone know what they say?

Not a two tone, looks like a shadow to me. It is a kouki Carina coupe and you can see how it looks irl here:
http://www.banpei.net/blog/carina-sighti...ta63-gt-tr
I think it is the 6e5 color code but the colorcodes from the 1983 brochure do not show the availability for the GT-TR yet and the brochure from 1984 does not show any color codes at all. Undecided

@Andrew: I knew your interior was beige/brown, so I recommended yellow. Otherwise red is a good choice with brown, but I would not recommend the Carina red (391) because it is a bit flat. Perhaps the AE86 red (3D7) used in the panda red scheme is a better choice?

Maybe it is because I'm slightly colorblind, but the gray looks a bit greenish to me. Graygreen? Dumb question Blush

BTW: looking again at the cars linked by jonny and I want this one:

i think it's your colourblindness indeed, from my point of view its more like a redish grey Smile
