An Audi color -- first seen, iirc, on the orignal S4, circa 2000? I had an A4 at the time and loved seeing these on the showroom floor when I was in for my weekly maintenance and repair work.

Nogaro Blue, as others have said. It's an almost-vintage Audi color

Wasn't there a thread here within the last year? It included pic of a U.S. customer picking his PTS car in Germany. Or did I dream it, 'cause I can't find it now. He indicated that he had the only/first in Nogaro.

That was me. As for similarities with Club Blau, it seems very close. Without seeing them together, it's hard to tell if the color is really that similar. Nogaro is a pearlescent paint, whereas my recollection (from my one encounter) of club blau is that it is not. Perhaps Nogaro is also a bit more purple under overcast skies.

As always caveat emptor with internet photos; these colors never look the same to the eye.
