Hi, The info in this thread does not accurately state the "Cadillac" names for the colors and is really not worthy of a "sticky" in the forum in my opinion. Dave

So my '76 is Crystal Blue Firemist Metallic [well it was unitl it got painted again!] - is there a way to check paint and trim from the VIN or a body tag on a '76 - I forgeet!

And the '79 coupe was I thought Coronation Yellow but it says here simply Light yellow.

The '93 and '94 Fleets are white clearcoat whereas I thought they were Cotilion White - did they stop calling the white Cotilion White by then?

The '77 coupe I just got is a Seamist Green which checks. Lovely colour, triple green with darker green leather interior.

By the way the resource is in Hungary for those who were curious to its origins and is the website of the Hungarian Cadillac Club. They're pretty fanatical about their Cadillacs down there.

cheers! Nick

They don't always get the names right. Like, when I bought touch up paint for my red '79 Coupe Deville the code was correct, but the Paint was called Carmine, vs Saxony Red, as it was called in the brochure. And Western Saddle Firemist was something like medium saddle mica.

I Have A 79 Coupe Deville With A 99 Paint Code And It Says Saffron When It Looks Like Western Saddle Firemist.... Not Sure What Name My Color Is..

[Benzilla]

Well, I know from personal experience that 96 is in fact Western Saddle Firemist. So, if it says 99 it must be Saffron

Interesting thing I noticed, there are two shades (1989 listings) named "Light Beechwood Metallic Clearcoat", although each one has a different code number. Comments welcomed
