They are not completely different colors. Y-56 is called Phoenix Yellow or Sunlight Yellow depending upon the country/market.

Have you seen an OEM Phoenix Yellow CTR in person? If not then whoever mixed the paint for the car that you saw didn't do a very good job at it!!!!

Perhaps it's just the lighting, the particular paint job, or the camera. Members with JDM and Euro cars that were marketed as "Sunlight Yellow" have confirmed that the paint code on the door jamb is indeed Y-56, just like the USDM cars.
