pistonbroke Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Anthracite mate, there are a billion black supes......well, maybe not a billion, but they are common. http://www.evsmotors.com/vehicleinventory/toyota/supra/95-ab01/003.jpg http://www.elitesmotorsports.com/inventory/1993/toyota/supra/JT2JA82J2P0006844_5.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradleyh_15 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 anthracite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I've noticed how anthracite's popularity is rising. When I bought mine, most people referred to it as monkey sh*t brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest van_damme_supra Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 oke, guess i'll take anthracite then but it does costs a lot more i think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I've noticed how anthracite's popularity is rising. When I bought mine, most people referred to it as monkey sh*t brown. Anthracite is not brown! MSB is very brown, that's dark grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 That anthracite DOES look classy, but black will never go out of fashion, whereas that might... Tough one. I think you really can't go wrong with a black Supra with black rims though, so black gets it's first vote from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Is Anthracite actually a different Toyota colour to Metallic Bronze then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeyboy2k Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Anthracite is not brown! MSB is very brown, that's dark grey. Is Anthracite actually a different Toyota colour to Metallic Bronze then? Anthracite = MSB = Metallic Bronze = 1A1 (I think). Best standard colour IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Metallic bronze I can definitely go with, but MSB is much browner isn't it? Maybe it's just a trick of the light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I thought Metallic Bronze was a colour, and it was nicknamed MSB by supraforums at some point. I thought Anthracite was a different colour. Isn't this MSB? Which is different to the ones above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Trev, the colour of that car looks very much like my car (which has paint code 1A1): I've always thought mine was Moonstone Brown (MSB). I'd be interested to know what paint code Anthracite is (mainly to know if it's the same colour, or a different one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 What pics are left on this thread: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=43670 Shows them all looking a lot like Anthracite. And apparently Alex made up MoonStone Brown! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Several of the posters in that thread seem sure that anthracite and MSB are one and the same thing. Sorry for the thread hijack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Did Toyota themselves ever actually call a colour on the Supra 'Anthracite'? It stikes me as odd because anthracite is actually a type of coal which is almost jet black. It's what they sell as 'smokeless coal' as it has the highest carbon content of any coal (it's almost pure carbon at over 90% carbon content and so doesn't produce much at all in the way of carbon dioxide.) Can't figure out why they'd use the name of something that's very, very black for a colour that's grey. Just my thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yours is the one I've seen around Eastbourne, then I'd say yours was MSB, and it's lovely, but I would really love a darker gun metal grey (anthracite)?

stevie_b Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I would really love a darker gun metal grey (anthracite)? IIRC Mr T did a couple of greys: gunmetal and quicksilver. Not sure what the paint codes are, and not even sure if they are indeed 2 different colours or 2 names for the same colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Isn't quicksilver a light silver, like mercury silver? I'd like it gunmetal, but a couple of shades darker. Like very old guns (bronzey dark grey) metal. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
