RSP looks like NOTHING else in person, it's almost indescribable when clean/waxed...

Very true, I was trying to split the common thought that they were about the same color, which they aren't..

And the color of that SC is this one

Check out those links.
Not long time ago I just purchased gs300 paint code is 8M6 but dealer who own the car from new in Belfast have records that car is RSP. So if it was on order colour in GS might have no code on VIN.
