    Sufficiently strange to be a factory requested paint. Looks like some Porsche paint color that he might have ( or had?) on a 911.

    Color in the first photo looks a lot like Daniel Del Rio's paint to sample paint on his 275 GTB/4. Ferrari named the color for him as Del Rio Verde Medio. Later photos look like Verde British Racing.

    From post #6885 earlier here. Similar appearance to the original pale green version that was talked about from post #6899 in this thread >

    How incredibly rare is a red 456. Not joking, rarely see them in red. Looks great.

    Not positive if there are any other Rosso Corsa M's, but that is the ONLY Rosso Corsa, Tan Daytona, Shields 456M in North America. Sold new out of Ferrari of Beverly Hills. It had 7,o69 miles on it when I bought it. Had been stored in a literal barn for years. The AC condensation drain was clogged with dead crickets! Cost over $35K US just to make the electrical system and suspension perfect (The self-leveling suspension can be ruined just by letting one sit). But there are so few M's in North America, that there are other colors that are unique examples too. I've only ever seen photographic proof of one in Giallo Modena, for example. Strangely, there are two or three RHD RC/Daytona/Shields versions in the UK. Had no idea it was unique when I bought it. If it had been a manual, I would have kept it forever.

    Is it your car? Love the color, but that photo is at a strange angle. Rear looks almost AI drawn and too short. Kinda gives it a Guara vibe

    Just a picture of Azzurro Hyperion on the Barchetta which seems to be close in color to Grigio Titanio depending on the light.

    Mechanic has put 40 miles on it now with no CEL.

    Said he will reassemble the interior and I can have it Saturday…..

    That’s awesome ! I have been wanting to ask if you had it back yet but not jinx it.

    I think you beat my record for consecutive months down. Also damn that is a nice color I do not see often at all. It’s gorgeous.

    We will also be up at car week at our spot in Aptos. Not sure about entering the Concourso Italiano again but you save $250 on an entry if you do…
