Default rsp pic thread with questions

Ok so im hopeing to paint my 93 sc300 this winter because it needs body work and im really leaning toward the rsp color. Has any one ever tried to get the paint code because i dont wanna buy directly from them because it would be an outrageoous cost for the paint. And how often does it look purple some pics look blue but some purple is it a flip flop never scene it in person. Here we go with 2 pics i found on the net.





lets see ur pics

well my car is black i just dont want a black car anymore it shows every scratch and scuff. I mean all paint colors do some just not as bad as others. I was planing on leveing all my jams black along with under the hood its eaiser, cheeper, and i think it would be cool, and diffrent.

1998 as well (at least on the Supra).

I love the color, a good friend of mine has a '98 RSP Supra and I can't get enough of it.

I'd take a RSP over a Black SC any day.

Damn, that color is sex.
