L6A6 Shows up as an exterior color for 2001 Meridian Pearl Metallic. (per google)

Any other numbers on the tag?

PCA has been working on this project for quite awhile. This is a great resource for exterior colors. Maybe help with interior as well.

I didn’t see anything about interiors here.

The codes you provide (L6A6 X2) are exterior color codes for Meridian Metallic.

If your interior is red, chances are very good it is Boxster Red, as that is the only factory red interior offered on the 2001 Boxster. It was a $2000 option, so there should be a code for it on the sticker.

Either post a pic of the actual sticker, or list all the option codes here and someone should be able to verify.

Just sayin'........

Hey Junkley, I just realize something I forgot years ago prior to replying to this post. I originally thought X2 means Black Partial Leather Seats because of my setup. The option sticker underneath the frunk says X2 for interior color and it made sense at that time.

I forgot that when I pulled up a build sheet generator a few years back that X2 also means Meridian Metallic according to it and AJ means Black Partial Leather Seats. I will remember this now moving forward thanks partially to you.

This build sheet is pretty accurate based on my research of my own vehicle's history and cross checking references so I hope it will help you.

You can use it to find out more about your car. The website was introduced by another member here or by a member of rennlist.

I’ll try it. Thank you. In previous searches I came up with meridian listed as L6A6 AND X2 for meridian. They were for totally different cars so I assumed this was coincidence.

There’s X2 in the interior position but I found nothing about it.

It is possible the car is interior to sample. This car has a ton of options.
