actually phoenix yellow isnt that bright. its pretty pale compared to other yellow's. my bro-in-law painted his 00 si phoenix yellow, looked bright at first, but then his bro painted his 98 hatch some kind of mazda yellow. the mazda yellow makes the phoenix yellow look really pale. mazda yellow=

So that is Phoenix Yellow? That was my first guess but I've never actually seen it so I wanted you guys to say. What color do you guys like for CRXs?

you can't determine a color from a photograph on a computer screen. All computer screens show colors differently, not to mention the photo's colors can come out different depending on the light and camera's settings.

And the yellow used on M3's is called Dakar Yellow. Some yellows that I hate are those used on the 90's 300ZX's and the late 80's 3rd gen Preludes. Stock CRX yellow isn't as bad, but it's not one of my favs, either.
