go_fast_Chris Unregistered G	was just wonder what the most rare coulour coupe is... working on the basis of the normal coulours they originally came in... not some outlandish coulour. my vote is moon silver.

F1ANG Unregistered F	There's also a really rare green colour, that I've only ever seen on early 16v/vt's, but not sure of the name, is it chamonix green or something? You don't see energy green very often too. There are currently a few moonies up for sale on the web...

I've never seen it on a UK car and only once or twice on a French one. 16VT and X1/9 1500 We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

F1ANG Unregistered F	Ah cool, thanks Pete. I've only seen one in the flesh at one of the old Italian car shows in Scotland a couple of years ago, it was a 16vt with 29k on the clock. I had a brief chat with the owner about the colour, as I'd never seen it before, he'd actually only bought the car to convert his Alfa 155 , as much as I like a wide body 155, I like coupes more! in this instance, he should have left it alone! or found a beat up old thema to strip it was a really nice colour in the flesh, especially in the sun light.

What was rare and common when new may not be the same now and global numbers would be different to individual countries. Did LE's have a unique range of colours? That would be an easy way to narrow it down. From my own personal observations I'd say white or white variants would have to be the least common. Black Met is rare down under, as far as I know I have the only one!

F1ANG Unregistered F	I think the only two exclusive colours the LE's came with were Vinci and chrono Gray, both pretty rare, chrono more so. I've never seen or heard of a non-LE in either of those colours. I'm not sure about the metallic black either, but the other two colours the LE's came in, of speed red and steel Gray seem quite common among other coupes.
