    Definitely worth the color-to-sample price!

    i thought they weren't doing this color anymore because of the way the plastic parts were painted it was very hard to match the plastic parts (bumpers) to the metal ones (body)

    I had originally seen it on a ruf r turbo, thats why i was asking, thanks for the pics gents. When I had seen it in person I was quite taken with it, but I did think it needed to be just slightly darker. Thanks much for the code bluelines, so quickly to. good things

    No worries mate. It is a pretty cool color. I am thinking a GT3 in Mexico Blue would be something to cruise around in
