Since it appears that you're actually seriously asking these questions, and I'm in a decent mood, I'll help you out. First, the color isn't "Banana Yellow". The JDM cars come in a color called Sunlight Yellow, and the corresponding USDM color is Phoenix Yellow. The paint code for this color is Y-56, and you can take that to any paint or body shop to obtain that color. The cost will obviously vary depending upon the type and brand of paint you purchase, where you purchase it from, and whether you're painting the vehicle yourself or having a professional do it.

If sunlight yellow and pheonix yellow have the same color code (y-56), why are the two named differently?

Good question I would like to know also, I was under the impression they were slightly different but I could be totally wrong and hope I am.

Marlon88, can you check your door jamb for a sticker that shows the exterior paint code? I'm curious to know if yours is Y-56.

I always thought there was a difference, not only because of the name, but because of the actual colour!.. Look at the 2 integra's in this pic. The DC2 is Sunlight Yellow (brighter) and the DC5 is Phoenix Yellow (richer, deeper, more mellow ).. that's the way I know it.. but i'm open to answers

phoenix and sunlight are the same color,, the dc2 is obviously original paint and a little faded and the rsx has been repainted so its newer and looks a little better

Is that a 96 spec DC2? I have never seen an PY or SY that looked that "pale"

False, Honda of Japan took the US Phoenix Yellow and let it sit in direct sunlight under strict security measures on Mount Fuji. Thus, reducing weight and creating Sunlight Yellow.
