SAL — Abyss Blue Pearl
Pearl finish. Used on 1 Subaru model across 4 model years in our database.
Swatch is an on-screen approximation, not a measured match.
Naming note. A very dark navy. Dropped after 2022 and replaced by Cosmic Blue Pearl (XAS); retailer lists that still show Abyss Blue on a 2023 or 2024 Outback are wrong.

Reading a Subaru paint code
Three characters, usually a letter, a digit and a letter (e.g. K1X, D4S, G1U).
Subaru's own marketing names often use words like Pearl, Metallic or Silica, and the suffix loosely tracks the finish — X and S tend to be pearl or silica finishes, U tends to be metallic.
