Either there was something lost in the translation or the specifications referred to another "Mexico blue". Keep in mind the stripe color was introduced more than 12 months before the 74 car color............. And the main thing, it is no where near the color....I think the "Mexico blue" designation was probably in a vinyl book....Neat color though. More towards a signal blue if there was one?

    Thanks, Harvey. You are the man. Yeah, I was referencing the RS bible.

    Regarding that Oslo Blue car above. After seeing Jerry Murray's '73E again a couple of weeks ago, it's a fave of mine along with Signal Orange for the warm tones...

    I know that computer displays can drastically alter colours, but that Oslo blue looks significantly different to the spray out card I got from Willhoit for my Oslo blue project. Whereas the Oslo example on page 4 seems to match.

    this could probably cut across both the green and the blue threads.

    2 cars in foreground are andyb's, and the green one in the background is my rhd 911L

    I'm pretty sure it's not Adriatic. I think this is Adriatic Blue: <a data-flickr-embed="true" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/max_911_fahrer/8240988472/in/album-72157632156070001/" title="POCRace2Dec2012_0227"><img src="https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8208/8240988472_d66962b012_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="POCRace2Dec2012_0227"></a><script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    Closer to 6603 Golf or even Mexico. I think the 964 color Maritime Blue is almost the same.
