Color descriptions on diecast models can be tricky since lighting and photography often change perception. Comparing your BOS Bentley with the Kyosho Rolls-Royce carefully in person, if possible, is best. Using the human mind to analyze subtle differences will give the most informative approach, and the discussion in the link may help clarify how others differentiate similar shades.

I found a Kyosho 1968 Rolls Royce Phantom VI with what I thought were the same colors as my recently acquired BOS Bentley S1 Mulliner Continental Sports Saloon, but most of the sellers describe their offering as 'Silver/Green.' One seller has posted the model in 'Gold/Green,' but when I look at both cars they seem to be the same color. Confused? Yup. I most definitely am, and at the prices being asked it is not a decision I would ever want to go wrong. First, an image of my BOS Bentley:
Next, are photos from a Kyosho 1968 RR PH VI listing with Silver/Green livery:
And, finally, photos from a Kyosho 1968 RR PH VI with Gold/Green livery:
I fail to see the difference between these two Kyosho PH VIs.

...they are the same. These sellers are simply using different words/adjectives to describe the same thing. NOW the ball is in YOUR court. What will you do? 🤔 🤔

@chris Trust my instincts and ask them to send me something from Kyosho that describes the color of their model. That should sort out the confusion for me. If Kyosho says Silver/Green, for both models, then it would not be a match for my BOS Bentley. I do like the color combo, though, I just wish it was gold instead.

@michaeljames 'Discussion in the link?' I admit I am puzzled, Michael.
