Spa Yellow was introduced in '97 and continued to the '03 model-year. 'Rio Yellow Pearl' was introduced in '04 and continued through the '05 final model-year. The latter appears to be a deeper/darker hue of yellow as well as having some pearl-elements in the finish, when compared to the former.

[Edit: slamstrom beat me to the punch! :D ]
 
the diff are
the rio has more metalic on the yellow and it has a pearl coat.

it kinda glows @ night and it's really stands out during the day when the sun light hit's it :cool:
 
You've been looking for a while now. I bet you are extremely happy for that gorgeous car...kinda like this kid:

Why not get the Taitec GTLW? They cost the same but one is the original and one is a knock-off.

does the Cantrell have less drone? that's what i heard...i prefer the weight and look (tips) of the Taitec....if anyone is selling one please let me know.
 
Good find Jack!
 
Congrats on the purchase, now that you know how hard to is to find the right one...Id say hold onto to this one.
 
How did you find this low mileage marvel?
