Two small unrelated questions:

1) Is there anywhere we can see the stock colour name for our cars? In GT Sport it's on the lower left corner in garage but I can't find this anywhere in GT7. I just want to check before I buy a second copy from the dealership so I don't double up (some cars come in lots of very similar shades).

2) I just did the SSRX American race last night using the Mustang GT. Tuned to almost 700 PP. I softened the natural frequency all the way to make it more stable on the banking. But on the straights the front end lifts like a jet about to take off, severely limiting my top speed. I stiffened the springs and it solves the problem but I find this a bit weird. The car only has 20/20 downforce so it shouldn't lift like that in the first place. Bug or realistic?

Upper left corner on the garage front page in GT7, from memory, for the paint name.

I just checked this, for completely stock cars this works. But as soon as you do anything in GT Auto that changes the appearance of your car (even if you don't repaint it), the paint name disappears from garage.

Count on PD to mess up basic features like this that works completely fine in older games :boggled:

I assume that would be replaced by the style name? You could just rename the style as per the original OEM colour

I don't know. I haven't tried saving styles yet. I just installed bodykits and quit GT Auto without saving it as a new style and the paint name is gone. I could save and rename it like you said, but that's just another layer of complication and relies on you remembering the original colour in the first place.

A minor thing in the grand scheme of things, but again shows how this game is littered with lots of little annoyances...
