Captain Beyond Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 What's the difference in the silver colored KRs? I believe the 08s are Silver Metallic and the 09s are Brilliant Silver. Are they actually the same color? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08KR525 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I've also noticed the registry lists the red KRs as Colorado Red when the window sticker clearly says Torch Red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they actually the same color? Thanks. The 2008 KR's were painted with SIlver Mettalic, paint code YN The 2009 KR's were painted with Brillant Silver, paint code UI Red 2008 & 2009 KR's are Torch Red, paint code D3 The Colorado red name is incorrect and has been changed in the new registry software that is being developed.

Donald Hoening Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Steve, Capt Beyond has an '08 KR and I have an '09 KR. We were at an event together today and confirm your paint codes. We didn't get our cars side by side, but they sure look similar.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheppd01 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Here are pictures of two silver KRs I took at Carlisle, PA. The 09 paint seems to have a little more sparkle. The difference can only be seen in direct sunlight. 08 09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
