    My 95 456 is a dark metallic blue. Is there a code in the vin or on the car which will identify the color? Pozzi? TFG? Vin is ZFFSP44A6S0103099.

    Pozzi is a flat blue.

    Tour de France is metallic, but it's not as dark as Pozzi. It's not quite as dark as midnight.

    I don't think Tour de France was available for 1995 cars, but I cannot be sure.

    There should be a yellow sticker on the underside of the engine bonnet that tells you. Just lift the engine bonnet and take a peak. If it's not there, then, of course, it was removed.

    Taz what is up with that Robin's Egg Blue for the Blue Swaters Metallic color chip? Maybe he has Swaters Blue which was a dark blue?

    The colors in the chart are not representative, only the names are.

    Just a guess here. Is the "famous brick wall" you're referring to, the one where all of the cars at Fantasy Junction in Emeryville, CA are photographed?

    http://fantasyjunction.com/cars/631-Ferrari-250GT%20Lusso%20Speciale%20by%20Fantuzzi-3.0L%2012-Cylinder

    Actually, now that I'm doing a direct comparison, it isn't; however, I thought it would be nice to share this picture of a Fantuzzi-bodied 250 GT Lusso with the group.

    Allan, actually you are correct the 456 was from Fantasy Junction. They have a great archive (some 42 pages!) of sold cars.

    Thanks for the help guys,Swatters blue metallic looks like the closest color. The tag is missing from under the hood. The car looks great in the sun!
