I just bought a car and the seller said the color was C7 Plum Crazy.

I need to do some touch-up and repairs...I ordered paint but it seems to be more of a grape than a violet color that the car is.

Are there 2 Plum Crazy/Inviolet?

I am attaching a photo of the car. What color is this?

If I was you, I'd try and find out what was used when the car was painted...

The PPG paint code is 2210... but depending on what paint was used the color varies alot... I have seen 4 "plum crazy" cars sided by side... all different

I was reading that the 71 color may be lighter than the 70 C7. I guess I will have them color match it at the paint store.

My 70 GTX is C7 and I had the same problem.
Mine was painted with NAPA paint so had to get a quart from them.
Don't know yet if their stuff will match their stuff!!

Can anyone elaborate more on this? Is this a real option available when you buy the paint, ALT1 or ALT2 ?

Not sure on if or how many on the C7 but my old boss had a silver Intrepid and there was 7 alternates for the same paint code.

When mine was painted, they mixed the color manually and it has just a little bit more red than standard Plum Crazy.
