congrats you have 1 of 15 RARE production inka peral civics, should be worth millions

But the guy does have a good question, cause i always see on ebay "only (insert number) ever sold in this color" how do you find out that number

Inca Pearl was only available in 2001 LX and EX models, so it should in lesser numbers than other popular colors.

you know why they only made a few of those cars with that color? because its ugly as hell. its one of those paint jobs where you're like, "man this is a sweet *** car with a sweet paint job. i think i'll buy it." then when you get home and go to sleep. you wake up the next morning and look ot your window only to see this dirty mustard blob sitting in your driveway. you're like,"wtf was i thinking."

Here is my Inca Pearl, I think it is a great color. I have a SSM Civic too with the same black wheels and this color looks a lot better IMO
http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid...cat/500/page/1

So many people think that I had it painted b/c they have never seen the color.
I would be interested to know how many were made too- Honda has made some colors before that are "limited"- like that pinky color in the early 90's....
BTW- it's for sale who ever is interested, let me know

I never did like that color... It is rare though, I think only on coupes too... Those cars are probably the kind that should get a something painted on them, as design, because the base is a good color.

that shows how much they dont know about honda

but i think that color is pretty nice if you mod it with like dark wheels and diy black out headlights. but i still like my enternal blue. too bad they didnt have that fiji blue on the newer model 04+ for the 03

There's about 4 or 5 (including mine) in the city, and there's only about 100,000 people who live here..

^^^ yea. I see quite a bit of them up here too. I think I've seen about a dozen on the roads around here...mostly 01 Canadian SI models.

I think they sold more of them in Canada than in the U.S.

There's one at my dealer. It's been there forever. Manager told me it's the worst color they came out with, no one wants it. It's a matter of taste. I think it looks really good with different rims, and maybe a good graphic. It's not "just another civic".

I got one. I bought mine in Feb 2001 in Colorado Springs, and it was the 2nd one sold that color. When I left in 2003, there was about 4-5 Inca's in the Colorado Springs area. I've seen one here in Germany other than mine, and he was American. I would like to know too, cause it only came out in 2001.
