    Just back from a very exciting factory atelier trip specifying our new Portofino.

    We went there with the idea of ordering Blu America (2 coat metallic) but found out that in the same external colour range there is a 3 coat Blu Pozzi metallic and from the side by side colour palettes appeared to be a much deeper, richer Blu than America.

    Has anyone had Blu Pozzi metallic and if so, has it a black/blue appearance (like Blu America).

    Thanks
    Ray

    I do not know if the current Blue Pozzi metallic is like the older Blue Pozzi, but I have seen the latter on a car, and it was very dark to my eyes.
    Almost like what used to be called Navy Blue.
    Congrats on your new Porto...T

    I too was intrigued when the Pozzi metallic was shown. Kicking myself for not taking side by side pallet pics, although not sure though how well an iPhone could replicate true outside colour! (Saying that, the atelier studio lighting was superb in terms of demonstrating true daylight).

    Semi random thought, did you look at Blue Swaters? That is another dark blue. Saw that on an F-car and it was very nice - dark, but you still knew it was blue...T

    Yes, we looked at Swaters but not dark enough for us. We’re looking for more of a liquorice blue/black combo.

    There's also Blu Profondo Metallizzato which is closer to the blue/black combo

    So, had the price back on the 3 coat Blu Pozzi......................£22.5k.

    Rapidly went off that colour, so waiting for the cost on my 1st choice Blu America.

    So, I had a note back from my dealer and the factory are going to paint the car in our original choice, although I got the colour description totally wrong in the first place!!

    The actual colour description is Saturnblu - Blue Scozia Mettalic.

    Where I got Pozzi in my brain I have no idea.....

    Very excited about this news and cannot wait.

    You have any pics of the Blu America, thinking of this colour for new 812 SF. Also, what did they charge for this colour?

    Nice color. Cali Porto platform is very color sensitive in my eye.


    Did you get from John H at LD?

    Always love to be second owner of expensive paints.

    They always have a nice selection of Ferraris. I got my F12 two years ago from them.

    Your color is spectacular.
