you've got a '90 or '91. My brothers '91 hatch is that color, I have an '89 and that year color is a little bit lighter. But here in the states it is a comon color.

there is many different shades of this color(i found this out when i went to look for touch up paint) on hondas.....but that particular shade is pretty rare.....what i dont get is how My 90 EX came with a crappy shade of blue and the 90 LX came with that nice deep shade of blue

I've worked with two people that had the "Chianti Red" color. One was an 89 DX, i think, and the other is an 89 STD. Both with tinted windoes, and look good for their age.

The Blue color is on a 4 door here at work, and a 5 door wagovan. The 4 door is the deeper color, i think a 90 model, but the wagovan is an 88-89 and is the lighter shade.
