Default Paint Code from VIN?

Hi all,
I'm not an owner yet, but currently in the market for a 2002 (yeah!). So many dealers just list the paint as "Silver", and if it's not a Honda Dealer, they have no idea if it's the Sebring or the Silverstone. However, most online ads from dealers contain the full VIN of the vehicle - so I was wondering... can you extract the paint color from the VIN?
