ALL DOT3 AND 4 brake fluids are amber. ALL DOT5 brake fluids are PURPLE! The manufactures make them this color so you are able to distinguish them from each other. If your fluid is suppposed to be amber and it isn't then you should change it anyways. Your fluid can become a brown color if it is old, worn, or contaminated.

Whoa take it down a notch, bro.
Especially since it is you that is wrong.
Case in point ATE Super Blue vs. ATE Type 200 Gold. Both DOT4 Both have a dry boiling point of 280°C (536°F); wet boiling point of 200°C ( 392°F). Both are suitable for all brake and clutch systems rated for DOT brake fluids. The only difference in these two fluids is the blue or gold color. Many manufacturers are marketing amber racing fluid for street/track cars so that know-nothing state inspection techs don't fail you for having put "anti freeze in your brakes".
