[fige]

my idea of this thread was for you guys to post a preview, and then a link to the full seized one, so it's actually wallpaper worthy without stretching.

[GrandmaSideways]

Sorry, your car = gold.

Actually it's colour code 400-1.
It was always marketed as metallic beige, according to Volvo literature.
Sorry buddy.

[HonestJhon]

i dont want to start a fight, but metallic beige, if i saw it drive by, i would think "gold car"
also, metallic beige brought up some nice pictures on google images, one, a metallic beige car from russia, and the other a guy huffing metallic beige, aka, gold paint. looks pretty similar ;)

hahaha
If you see the car in person, and you actually look at it in the light... It's almost gold, but not quite.
Metallic Beige is definitely the right name, though I call it gold just for simplicity sakes, too. It doesn't have the same 'punch' that gold has, it's not as rich.

[Volvorules]

Actually it's colour code 400-1.

Sorry buddy.

I don't care what they call it, it's still gold.

And don't feel sorry for me, my car's not gold :)

Grandma metallic beige is just all the better for blowing doors off people.
