    possibly TDF? its tough to tell becuase the picture is dark..and then the flash really lights up that area...which sometimes give you a false sense of color or metallic

    It could depend on the year. Could be Swatter's blue, if it's an early car, or TDF, if it's a later car. My guess would be Swatters.

    My guess is either Blu Nart Metallizato or Blu Pozzi. TDF is a more "brilliant" blue color. (even though photos can be deceiving)

    What the paint color code shown on the car??

    A little off topic maybe, but wasn't Ferraris "new" color range introduced in 1997 (or 1998)?? (introducing new names and colors, including Blue TdF, Pozzi, Grigio Ingrid, Nero Daytona, etc).
    Therefore I think a first series 456 GT like in the picture has a different color name as compared to todays color lineup.

    That's what I thought. Most likely it's Blue Swaters, which existed (IIRC) BEFORE TdF and Pozzi came along.

    Don't know where this car is located but as I mentioned in an earlier post this morning - why not just check the code in the trunk or on the trunk lid?
