I'm not sure if that's the definitive list, it seems to be missing 9L5 and a few others.

some more useful info
Toyota and Lexus color codes generally start with the prefix "C/TR" and the code will be three digits long, followed by more info. Ex. CTR202/LA09. 202 will be the color code. Your location will always be in the drivers door jamb.    If your going to order paint i'd go with www.paintscratch.com because when you order if you give them your VIN #,which they ask for, they check to see if your car was repainted at any point and they also check to make sure you have the right paint code. -------------------- Buy my Celica $2,500 - http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=76562&st=0

The first 3 characters on the bottom line of your VIN plate on the bulkhead in the engine bay give you your Toyota paintcode.

Dupont/ PPG never mind i was about to be all like "wheres the Deep Jewel Green 6P3!?" but randy already took care of that  and, on a side note, im pretty sure that color is exclusive to 1997 -------------------- |

A PPG paint store can make you a spray or a touchup bottle. ^^
Does anyone know how these break down? The first digit is the color class. 0 for white 1 for silver tones 2 for black 3 for red and so on. Does any one know what the other 2 are for or why the middle is somtimes a number or letter. Help me crack the code and I'll buy you a slurpee.jk -------------------- JDM guy made me do it.

I believe the last two just tell how new or old the color is. http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/stepho/colour.htm
example: 601 is the oldest green color then came 611, 614, 621, etc then on to 6A1..., 6C3..., 6M1..., 6P3..., 6S9..., 6U0... so 6P3 is a newer green than 6M1 ...do I get a slurpee now?

Heck no.  I have a coworker that has a 2002 Tundra with 6p2.It is very close to 6p3 but not exactly. I dunno. It's almost like a graph that show hue and saturation. red green blue.
