damn i know the colour your talking about (Sand Storm, i think), in fact theres a AU3 SR for sale just up the road in it.
* EDIT Ive found a photo on the net of a car in it- It looks crap in the pictures, but the AU's ive seen in it look bloody good in real life; its infinately better than Organza or Armaretto or Metorite http://search.carsguide.news.com.au/...&vehicleType=1

was a special colour available on 75th anniversary models IIRC, it is darker than organza and amaretto, hard to describe without a pic.

So that's what it's called. Sandstone. We seen one last week in Werribee. It really caught my eye because I had never seen an AU in that colour and thought it looked unusual. Interesting....

I am sure there's an old thread with all the AU colours and colour codes with pictures too.

It's a great colour indeed. Classy, very classy.
I love those 75th Anniversary editions, especially the Ghias, but IIRC they didn't come out with that colour. I thought it was just the Futuras, but I stand to be corrected. LOL! In any case, an awesome looking colour. GK
