Color my world!

[Tabcon]

I am 99% percent certain I want to paint my car black, but I ran across this the other day and I'm a little tempted to change my mind.

I have looked and looked but cannot find a color code for this car. Does anyone have any idea what it is?

 

[Brosky]

Need to see what you are looking at Tab. Nothing there.

 

[sail]

I like it.

 

[M_Pied_Lourd]

Maybe a white car in a blizzard......

 

[rlwhitetr3b]

With really wide white walls!

 

[bgbassplyr]

I can see it............dark blue, with a touch of pearl.

But then again that car would look good in nearly any color...

Pretty color on a pretty car, but I wonder if it's a bit too <span style="font-style: italic">rich</span> .....
Here's a car belonging to a club member:

Isn't Triumph's Valencia Blue close to that? Nice color too.

 

[DNK]

Tab, it's a Ferrari

I put very little faith in colors seen over the Internet; but it looks like it might be Blu Tour de France Metallic.

But don't be surprised if it turns out to be unavailable in the US. I tried to have my local body shop match a Lotus color, and they said it wasn't legal here due to high VOC.

I think that's the color of money...

 

[toysrrus]

I can see it............dark blue, with a touch of pearl.

It surely is a "Dk.(Midnight) Blue but "Pearl" in a "California Spyder"? I don`t believe "Ferrari" painted them with a "Pearl" type of paint.

So; Is this one "Real" or a "Reproduction"??

Whichever; She sure does look "Purrty"!!

Valencia is a good bit lighter and (arguably) a bit greener:

The Ferrari 250 GT Short Wheel Base California Spyder shown is serial number 2561GT. It was originally red from the factory, but was painted the dark blue when it was restored about 8 years ago. That color looks great on that car.

The California Spyders command obscene amounts of money when they come up for sale...bring millions...

Maybe I can swing the Bizzarini in the background...

Blue is my favorite color, so I vote for it.

Blue is my favorite color, so I vote for it.

Uh, er, <span style="color: #000099"><span style="font-size: 14pt">BLUE</span></span>, Paul?

Have you noticed the colours of your two Triumphs lately, neither is even in the same rainbow as blue.

 

[DNK]

Bill, figured he had a senior moment and let that slide. :laugh:

 

[Brosky]

Blue as on the EXTERIOR guys....you all know the rest of the story.

I'm fond of Triumph's Royal Blue (56) which is the original color of my first TR4A.
