    Just spotted a 456M in San Jose, Almaden Expressway (how did I know what model?- the license was "A 456M"). Absolutely stunning car, especially the color - which is my question; what blue name/color code is that? I'm researching various shades of blue to paint my Fcar, the 456 looks good in that color.

    Any help in my search would be appreciated! Thanks.

    Tom,

    Do you have a pic? Or are you looking for the owner?

    Vincent,
    No pictures, looking for owner or someone who knows him or the car. (Actually, anyone who has or has afavorite medium or medium dark blue Fcar can weigh in)

    It is probably swaters or tour de france. My guess would be swaters

    Sounds like swatters...which is darker than TDF blue.

    If you go to redhead.com you can see the sample swatch under the 512m's they have catalogued. FNA will also have color swatches on their site.

    There is an unlisted blue that Ferrari use on exhibition cars etc. It is kind of mid to dark blue. Someone told me that it is a colour unique to Pinafarina and that you need to get the color specifications direct from the factory or from Pinafarina....might be BS but that is what i heard!

    The blue 355 pic above looks a lot like Monaco blue. Check my posts, we just had a blue 355 thread the othr day.
