In the above photo, it looks more emerald, but let me tell you that in person, my Polo Green (517) is much brighter and greener in the sun. See the close up of the headlight protectors in my previous post.

Im not saying thats what your car looks like, I was just pointing out the fact that shading and even the camera makes a big difference. I've seen the difference between '95 polo and '96 polo so I know what you mean about looking at the paint codes. I love the '96 polo, the emerald has a nice color but that polo makes me happy
