I would agree with you on that one. I like the black with the red.

Nice and shiny. I wish mine was like that.... BTW that color is rare even in Japan. I don't remember seeing even one.

Nice colour.
Nice car too. A VL with all the options fitted. It's very rare to see a sunroof on a JDM SVX, and the airbag too. Current Price: 398000 JPY = $3361 US Desired Price: 458000 JPY = $3868 US 3 days left, 0 bids so far Quote:

Deciding
I am still trying to decide about the black, but I sure love the color of red. It has so much more depth than our reds.

In Japan it is rare, and is known as Lead Mica. I cling to the belief this is a mistake in translation somewhere back along the line, it should be Red Mica. The paint code is 247, and it is known in Europe as either Red Mica or Swiss Ruby Mica. In reality the camera taking these pictures has made it much more "cherry", deeper than it is. There is a more pink tinge to it than appears here. If you look up US paint codes, this colour appeared on some Legacys in the early 90s. Over here, I have seen it on pre-2000 Foresters. It's a very pretty colour, even if not a cherry as can be seen here. Check Bipa's locker, her car in Germany is this colour. Joe

Doesn't seem to be any paint fade. Normally a red car of that age would be several different shades by now.

Translation of "L"ead Mica is "R"ed Mica. Same thing with our wheels when they are put on backwards L is for Light and the other side is Reft.

Thanks Phil
I have never seen so many pictures of one car. It is in lovely condition, I would not mind buying it. Maybe another time. Joe

I normally don't like red cars except 99-04 mustangs, most ferrari's, and that car with a black top.

The description says the colour is "Lead Mica" (Red Mica?) which is colour code #947 according to JamSVX's site.
Code 947 is known as "Ruby Pearl Metallic" in the other parts of the world. http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au...des_subaru.htm

Don't mean to digress here but Tom, I painted the center bar below the grille on my silver black. Looks like the touch up below on yours. What do you think?
