How To Decide on a Toyota Paint Color
When you’re shopping for a Toyota, one of the decisions you have to make is what color to get. But how should you go about making this decision? There are several factors you can use, including:
Choosing a Color Based on Weather
One factor you can consider is the weather we get down here in Florida. As residents of Florida know, we’re prone to bad storms. If you want to make sure your car is more visible during rainstorms or at night, explore getting a brighter color like white or yellow. These colors reflect more light and can help make your vehicle easier to see when there is a severe rainstorm obstructing the vision of other drivers. At the other end of the spectrum, colors like gray, black, or dark blue might be a little harder to see at night or in bad weather.
Choosing a Color Based on Your Personality
Another factor you can consider is your personality. Colors bring out different emotions in us, and so by studying the psychology of colors, you can choose a color that best represents the mood you want to feel or express. For example, the color silver is often associated with classy or stylish. Black expresses power and mysteriousness, while red exemplifies excitement and passion. If you want something happy or calming, consider going with orange or blue, respectively. Think about how certain colors make you feel or research how they make others feel to help you decide on the perfect color.
Choosing a Color Based on Popularity
If you want, you can choose your car color based on what’s currently popular. Trends change all the time, so the colors that were popular a few years ago may no longer be as popular. Some popular colors for sedans and luxury cars include:
- White.
- Gray.
- Blue.
- Red.
If you’re interested in an SUV or truck, then some popular colors include:
- White.
- Gray.
- Silver.
- Black.

Choosing a Color Based on Vehicle Type
Finally, consider the type of vehicle you’re buying before settling on a color. For example, a yellow color might look great on a sports convertible, but you may not enjoy it on a pickup truck. Try to choose a color that goes along with the purpose of the vehicle. For instance, you might want something calming or safe if you’re buying a family SUV, whereas a color that’s more powerful or earthy might make sense for an off-roading vehicle.
How To Find Your Vehicle’s Color Code
In some instances, you may need to know the exact color of your current vehicle. For example, if you get into a minor accident, you may need to touch up the paint where the accident occurred. When painting your vehicle, it’s important that you get the exact same color as the original paint, otherwise, you’ll still notice the blemish. To do this, you need to figure out your vehicle’s color code.
There are a few ways to do this. First, you can use your vehicle identification number (VIN). A VIN is like your vehicle’s fingerprint and it records essential information about your vehicle. By providing your VIN to a dealership, they can look up your exact vehicle and find the color code for you.
In many cases, you can find your color code directly within your vehicle. Open up your driver’s side door and look for information listed about your vehicle, including the VIN. On this sticker, you’ll find your vehicle’s paint color. You’ll see two paint codes listed, one of which is your interior color and the other your exterior color. Sometimes they are listed as “trim” and “paint,” respectively.
If you can’t find the paint color in either of these locations, try checking your owners manual. Your manual may tell you where to find the information about your vehicle other than the door jamb. Once you find the vehicle’s color code, you can then proceed to touch up your vehicle.
