97-01 XJ stock colors?

What colors could be had? Did it change year to year? As I look around at different XJ's I see a few colors that you don't see very often. Any help would be great! Thanks

Found some stuff in this edmunds article...

There was also a yellow, and IIRC it was 99 only, and there was a burnt orange not shure of the year. Though both are 97+. The burnt orange is very rare. In fact I have never seen one in person only in pictures. The purple ones seem not to be to common eather at least in my neck of the woods.

www.paintscratch.com usually lists them, too.

Heres a few 99's that appears to be dark blue! Is it rare or a repaint?

I think Amber Fire is the copper-colored burnt orange that you're talking about.

this may seem odd... but out of the 4 xjs at my school... we have the dark blue, and the burnt orange. this in in Chattanooga, TN; and although i have seen several other dark blue cherokess, i have only seen this one orange one...

here's a pic of us parking in the back "lot" for proof... (i'm the black one, btw)

I just drove a 2001 Amber Fire on a test drive a few days ago. The used car salesman said it was Aztec Gold...and that (all) Cherokees are rare because they are being bought up and shipped to the Middle East. Yeah...right.
