I realized something today...
 
I posted a few weeks ago that I bought a 1998 Bordeaux Pearl SC300...or so I thought...

After looking for some touch up paint to patch some boo-boo's I could not find the Bordeaux Pearl paint code for my year.:confused: I did, however, find a paint code for Baroque Red Metallic that looks EXACTLY like my car. My car came with the original window sticker & after checking it out...Baroque Red Metallic. :egads: The dealership gave me the wrong info...I feel like I was faking the funk this whole time claiming I had BP when really I didn't (please forgive me! LOL) I know it's not a big deal but I don't like to wander around in life hoarding wrong information...:p

I still LOVE the color though...the gold pinstripes are gone (except for the "L"s) & it's getting new shoes today (g35 7-spoke) so I'll be posting better pics later.:woot:

Baroque Red Metallic is still an awesome color. The G35 wheels will look awesome on it.

I may have to take you up on that offer...I am not a fan of the gold-ness :p

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I have a lot of catching up to do in order to get my SC looking as great as all of yours! :)

I don't know how well the gold emblems blend with gunmetal rims & silver lugs, though...I may have to ditch them.

I didn't know that...It's funny because I wasn't even aware it even came in that color before I found it online! Once I saw it was like love at first sight. It was fate... :D
