I've searched. And searched.

My codes are G3 and 6U. What do they mean? Just wondering what the factory names really are.

Also, anyone got a link to the '04 brochure?

In 2004....
G3 is the exterior paint code, which Lincoln called Light French Silk Metallic.

6U is the interior trim code, the 6 meaning that you have cooled & heated front seats, the U is the color code which was called Medium Light Stone.

My old Jetta was Metallic Antelope. Yeah, it was brown.
