Default paint colors... how many of each produced?

not how many colors the Ls400s came in, but production numbers of cars that came in those colors. ive had my 00 ucf20 now for 9 months thats Imperial Jade mica. passing another Ls400 in traffic is kind of a rarity here in orlando these days, but when i do, they are always white, gold, and the occasional black. i have not passed a single Imperial Jade one in traffic, and have not seen a single one in the wild anywhere! not even in the dealership service drive i work on. cant be too many of them. i know 00 was the rarest one with the lowest production number, with only 15,871 sold in the states and 11,098 exported to the rest of the world, bringing the total number of all 2000 Ls400s to 26,969 units vs the staggering 42,806/41,901 84,707 1990 MYs, but how many of those 15,871/11,098 2000s came in Imperial Jade Mica?? anyone know?

ive only seen gold, white, but never black or green. I’m in Texas and gold LS400s are everywhere being driven around by either 17 year olds or 50+ year old men lol. No in between.

I see them fairly often on the roads of SoCal. Mine is silver and I have seen silver, green, black, white, red and gold. I see at least two LS400's a week and usually the same ones...

I did some poking around and found out they only made that color in 98, 99 and 2000. I did find a link to actual production numbers for colors, but of course the link was dead.
