You could put the same car picture up on three computers with the monitors side by side by side, and swear they were all different colors.

You really just need some paint samples in hand to compare.

you can not judge a colour by a pic . lights.... sun make a huge difference in what it looks like. if you have a panel with the colour you want some paint stores can colour match it with a scanner .

Also cars built at different times of the year might not be the same as yours. Remember GM was selling cars & not show cars, Try to match what still remains that is known original...Joe
