@bux48 weren’t these made for J? |

 Yes, they were officially exported to J, since January 2004, as 2.0 JTS and 2.5 V6. Pearl White was AFAIK only offered on the GTA, but could have been a special order option, or available for export markets. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearl_White I wonder if they asked permission? -- Last edit: 2022-07-06 14:42:37 |

Officially bianco-something so didn't have to... |

I'm looking at CarSensor catalog, and even the basic JTS trim has "Nuova White Pearl" listed as optional color  Now that I think of it I think white Alfas aren't that common since red is the most associated color for these cars -- Last edit: 2022-07-06 14:57:17 |

I guess they change the names of the colours if exported  I thought white was popular in Japan for 'sporty' vehicles. I mean way before it became popular elsewhere. |

Yes on both, and while there are Alfas in all sorts of colors, the color red is the most associated for a lot of Italian cars here (except of course the Fiat 500 and Panda) -- Last edit: 2022-07-06 15:39:45 |

Good to know, so as sometimes happens this colour was available for some export markets .gif ":)") on my 2003 (facelift) Sportwagon brochure this colour ("bianco perla" on GTA) isn't listed in the colour range, but, as I remembered, there is an optional "extraserie" paint, so possibly was available here too on special order. Never seen one though. White Alfas weren't very popular until the "fashion" of late 00s/10s, for example on Giuliettas is the most common colour, whereas on the 156 (solid "bianco polare") was somewhat rare, and also red was more common on export markets .gif ";)") -- Last edit: 2022-07-06 15:30:51 |

Magazine comment that there was Thai build of 156s for a couple of years from March 2002 at the General Motors factory in Rayong, supplying "Asia-Pacific markets". No further details. So is this one a Thai build?? |

No, according to Quattroruote magazine February 2002 issue, Rayong-built 156s were only meant for RHD Asian countries except Japan. “Since January 2002 156s for RHD Asian markets, except Japan, are assembled in a GM factory in Rayong, Thailand, so Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, other than Thailand itself”. No mention of HK too, but safe to assume it’s not included and they came from Italy. Also, AFAIK facelift models never were built in Rayong, and the assembly was rather short-lived and ended around early 2004. |
