    I have a suspicion this color would look good on the 812... Do you have any pictures of cars in this color? The Elettrico on the F12tdf is quite vivid. I love the color, but with bold colors, its really critical to have the right shape and for me the F12tdf isn't the right shape for the color. Never the less... the TDF still looks great!

    Nothing I can share in Azzurro Gladiateur unfortunately but it is from the same late 1960's era as Marcel's Verde Seabird F12. There may be an example of AG out there. Some of the names were quite unique in that era like 'Arancio Vaguely Noble' or 'Grigio Argento Le Sancy' as noted below in the two samples. I agree though not the same as seeing the paint on a car as it is only a representation of the color.

    I wonder where Pininfarina got that idea- the class of steam locomotives (LNER A3) of which Flying Scotsman is one were also named after racehorses. They were built in the 1920s, with some names the same as the Pininfarina list.

    Call me sad if you wish...

    Hard to tell but I strongly suspect Grigio Scuro, one of the very last color for wich the Black wheels + Yellow calipers combo finds grace to my eyes, after that scandalous (And effective) brainwashing from Mr Tim S. aka Traveller .. anyway I absolutely love that picture

    I always liked the Ferrari gold rims. Tasteful and not gaudy. Full disclosure though, I am biased as I have them on my Scuderia.

    Do we know the color name of the red on Pagani's TDF?
    While I find the color scheme to make the car busy, I really like this specific shade of red.
