Thanks for the input. I have very very little in the way of documentation on it. I was thinking PTS also; unsure if that's desirable or just an oddity?

It's a great color - and much more rare than the Red/Black/White Porsche 911 that are so prevalent.

Prussian Blue didn't arrive on the scene until 1983 for the 911 but it was obviously a Paint To Sample car. I would still think Prussian Blue, based upon your first photo.

On the other hand, PTS cars are rare--so logically, it would be something simple like Petrol Blue.

PORSCHE PREUSSISCH BLUE 33X 1986 1987 METALLIC

PORSCHE PETROL BLUE 376 1978 1980 METALLIC

I would have to agree on the Prussian Blue,recently went to look at a 930 Turbo for a rennlister and it
was infact the same color,although a bit difficult to discern with your lighting this is a deep and impressive color that benefits from a mirror shine to bring out the depth....very cool hue,Bert
