three shades of green?
I was going through my Specs page and just realized that there were 3 shades of green produced for the SVX. Dark deal, Emeral Green and Polo Green. I know what Teal and polo green looks like. What does the 94 Emeral Green look like? Anyone with a green 94 on the board?

I have reserached this issue. Here is the breakdown of the colors. In some years they changed the color name, and not the color itself, and in some years they changed the color, but not the name.
1992 Dark Teal - Paint Code 269 1993 No Green Offered 1994 Emerald Pearl - Paint Code 434 1995 Polo Green - Paint Code 434 1996 Polo Green - Paint Code 517 1997 Polo Green - Paint Code 517 The color names were decided by marketing people, not subaru. Even though the color of the 95 SVX's was still what subaru called "Emerald Pearl," the color was renamed "Polo Green" because at that time, Polo was more appealing to the public than Emerald. The window sticker for my car says "Polo Green" but when I bought touchup from the dealer, the can reads "Emerald Pearl." SOOOO 94 and 95 were Emerald Pearl, and 96-97 were Polo Green. My car is Emerald Pearl... and so are all the other 95's. Theres your answer. wheew. Mike |

The name I've come up with for my '94 is 'USFS picnic table green metallic'. It seems to work, everyone agrees when they see the car. *runs like the wind, dodging slings and arrows*
