Color Info? PCNA COA says original color is code 54, Viola Metallic

But I can't find info on that color anywhere. When I asked them they actually said they've never seen that code before and had no other info.

Anything is help, car is a 73T Coupe.

Thanks!

The term Viola Metallic is actually a rather recent Boxster color, but do not know if that number code fits with the name.

It is also no longer available, as a friend had a Viola Boxster that was lost in an accident ( major destruction ), and wished to replace it with that color again in a paint to sample. It was denied, but an optional color very close to it was then made available in the 2014 model year and he went with that.

I only know of the Aubergine or Eggplant from your vintage, and that is not even close in shading to Viola.

Royal purple?

I have sales colour code "54" listed as Sepia Brown, paint code 415.

What colour is your coupe?

Thanks. Right now it is black. When trying to look in all the spots to determine original color there seems to be some greens in a few places but also black in several places. I'm sure the car has been painted at least a few times.
