Is only one color associated with a particular model and year of a used (standard) car?

ex.
S2000 (US) '99 only comes in Formula Red
S2000 '03 only comes in Silverstone

I've been looking for Silverstone AP1 ('99 - '02) S2000 in Silverstone in the used car lot, but haven't found it yet...
 
I'm 99% positive used cars only come in one specific color only. What you will have to do is buy both so you can get the color token and then paint the other car with it.
 
Yup, my M3 always appear in Laguna Seca Blue, my C1 Vettes always come in black...................etc etc. Kind of sad because certain cars had very unique factory colors and now they can't be obtained.
 
Standards cycle through colors, just not as often as you would like. Expect to see a certain car in the same color time after time, except for the rare -- very rare -- occasion it isn't. I've picked up a few Rufs, Hondas, and more of the same year and model in different colors. Just keep an eye out and hope you get lucky.

Or save yourself the hassle and repaint it.
 
Thanks for the info guys. I guess I don't need to waste my time anymore cycling through license test and used car lot looking for a car that doesn't exist lol

They can be through the BDAY exploit.

All of the birthday exploits in the world won't help if the colour you are after (ie a certain shade of red which only came on a certain car) isn't in the game because all used cars of that model are blue

They exist. It's just a question of whether or not you decide it's a waste of time waiting.
 
I'm just wondering what happened to the special colors from GT4. Can I get a pink 2CV or a maroon and white Spitfire without repainting?
I hope PD figures this out and patches it with a new used car system.

You're not following. Just because only one color is available at the used dealer, doesn't mean only that color is in the game. Take the chevelle SS for example, it only comes in blue with black stripes at the used lot. Yet with the exploit the car has some 6+ colors. If the color was in GT4 chances are it's still in the game. PD just messed up with cycling the same color over and over and over. Like the 10+ MkIV SUPRAs I've seen in silver.

first, I shouldn't need to exploit the system to get something like this, and secondly, what assurance is there that the glitch will get me the color I want.

Agreed, and you have no assurance.
