Default Paint Match/Color Code problem...

I believe my door tag color code is supposed to be 6N1. It's a 95 SC400 with a medium almost bluish tone to the dark green color. Every color code chart at stores that sell scratch match colors do not list a 6N1 color. However there is a 6M1 that's called a Dark Emerald Pearl.
Anybody got any ideas???? Nitro

Default Resale Value. Best Colors???

Blue Book values are blind guides. Some model cars sell much better with a consumer favorite color. Any opinions on what the favorite factory SC colors are? Nitro

Have you tried the dealership for touch-up paint? They're pretty accurate matches...
