Re: Orifice tube in AC
They changed the colors between 2000 and 2001. I think they got rid of the yellow, green, and orange, and maybe added burgundy. The "tropic green" color is really nasty looking, it's not a dark green at all. I have no clue about RD1 paint colors.

Re: Very bad luck
I think you all are still wrong...
Ive seen a burgundy tib and it a darker color than that picture that majik posted. Thats definetly not it. Its darker than that and not as red. Ive seen it around here a couple of times and every time i saw it I thought to myself "theres that elusive burgundy tiburon again".

maybe it's a custom burgandy paint. who knows. I've rarely seen an Antique Rose color, so maybe there's another rare color out there somewhere.
The paint codes are messed up. I bought my tib new... "Artic White"
I had my friend shoot a test panel of NW, which comes up as Noble White in paint code computers. Hyundai listed the color as Noble White on everything except for the papers on my car (Artic White). NW is the same paint code that's shown on my car... but the two whites did not match.
I have a custom white now, with white and blue pearl mixed in, so it doesn't really matter anymore. Just thought I'd share tht with you.
Here's an idea... TAKE A FREAKIN PICTURE AND POST IT!!! Take one of yourself while you're at it 8)
Also, look at the car pictured again. The front is obviously washed out by a flash or some sort of light source. Towards the back of the car, in the shadow, it's much much darker and a deeper color.

Re: Very bad luck
I found the brochure that I got when I bought my car back in Feb of 2000. There are three colors listed that are not on the 2000 Tib color list that tibwrc posted. They are SuperSilver, JetBlack and Forest Green--my car..So I wasn't hallucinating...my car is Forest Green. I wrote down my VIN number from my car and looked at the color codes on tibwrc's list and none of the green's on the list matched any of my numbers from the VIN-- ????

Re: Burgundy Tib
what headlights do you have? two circles or one piece?
I thought the "2000" tiburons sold in EARLY part of the year (prior to April) were still 1st generation tiburons.
Do you have pics of your car CyberShark?

Re: Burgundy Tib
just making sure wink.gif just because people buy their cars in a certain year doesn't mean that the car model is from that certain year. I've found those people before.
Not sure what to tell you then. Must have been brand new since you bought it so early in the year. You can look under your hood or on the inside of the driver door (open the door and look in the door jamb) and it should show you somewhere what your Paint Code is.
Go run out to your car real quick and look.
