    I cannot, although I wish I could! I get sent a lot of these images, and besides knowing that it is clearly a USA-spec FI 88.5 QV, I cant even say for sure what type of blue that is based on the image. The car appears to have a white interior.

    Welcome to the thread by the way.

    It looks like the one that Classic Cars had. Is it still for sale, or with a new owner?

    I am not sure if Joe tried to say that the picts were not put here before or the car has never been seen here before.
    If you ask me i'll say this looks like kla12424. the only 881/2 blue/white i know in the usa,
    and Joe would have said so. So do we have another blue/white 88.5 in the usa?
    Better question is what state where thoses picts taken?

    That car has been local in this area for a long time. It is not Blue rather a very odd metallic grey. Similar to the flat grey used on the 458 Italia cars.

    The owner also has a 91 Diablo. The cars are in very very sad condition as they have sat outside at numerous mechanic shops for months at a time.

    Unless my eyes are going, the pictures Joe posted are clearly blue. Are you referring to another car?

    I can see how metallic blue & grey can easily be interpreted differently, and I recall a few pages ago where Indian swore Vic Sawyer's Countach QV interior which he had sat in was grey when in fact it is dark blue.

    Yes, blues and greys are colours that people will see differently. The interior of Vic Sawyer's car in post 14349, to me, looks dark grey, even though it is dark blue. His private plate was later on a dark blue Murcielago.
