How to Find Your Nissan 210's Color Code

Nissan paint color codes are on the driver's door jamb. Some labels are low on the jamb and require bending to read. The color label may be small. Codes are typically three characters long using letters and numbers; sometimes a space and a fourth character follow. The same code can have different marketing names across models. AX6 corresponds to Redline Clearcoat; AX6 may also be called Red Clearcoat or High Performance Clearcoat. Nissan North America phone number is 1-800-647-7261.

The Color Breakdown

Nissan gave us 13 distinct flavors of late-70s and early-80s style for the 210. They really leaned into the earth tones of the era, offering everything from the deep Thunder Black and Dark Brown Metallic to the surprisingly adventurous Rallye Red. Whether your car is dressed in the subtle Mesa Tan or the shimmering Diamond Mist Metallic, these colors were designed to make a compact car feel like a class act.

What to Watch For

Because the 210 comes from an era when paint technology was still finding its footing, you're likely dealing with one of two things: "chalking" or "thinning." If you have a solid color like Alpine White or Desert Yellow, the paint tends to get a dusty, chalky film over time. If you have a metallic like Burgundy Mist, keep a close eye on the roof and the tops of the fenders-the sun loves to nibble away at the shine until the paint starts to look a bit thirsty.

To find your exact match, skip the door jamb. On these vintage beauties, your paint code is usually stamped onto a small silver metal plate located in the engine bay, either on the firewall (the back wall of the engine compartment) or the radiator core support (the metal bar right behind the grille).

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of the many metallics, like French Beige Metallic or Mission Tan Metallic, your biggest hurdle is the "settle." Those tiny metallic flakes like to nap at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for a full two minutes-even if your arm gets tired-to ensure those sparkles are evenly distributed. When applying, think "less is more." Use the tip of the brush to dab tiny amounts into the chip rather than painting a long stroke. It requires patience, but building up three thin layers will look much better than one big, thick blob that stands out like a sore thumb.
