Cobalt Blue (LM5N) on the left. (and seen a zillion times in my gallery...)
Azure Blue to my right.

I believe this is Ocean Blue Metallic.

I'm torn between Cobalt Blue (which looks a lot like BMW's Estoril Blue), and the equally excellent Diamond Blue. Both are plenty sweet!!

Here are some more...
1. Minerva Blue
2. Taho Blue (i think this was also known as Turquoise Blue Metallic)

kennycoulter

are all of these available in the u.s.?

Blue S2

Ocean, Copenhagen, Azure, Baltic, Glacier, Diamond, and Cobalt Blue were available in the US. Minerva, Teal, Tahoe, and one other one were selected countries only I think. There are certain colors like Tahoe that I have never seen reference to outside of the UK.

Blue colors regardless are pretty rare. Seems it wasn't that popular back then. Blues, Purples, and Greens just never were the thing on 944s despite looking awesome. Funny how Porsches today are coming in multiple blue shades again!

EDIT: Quick correction... Minerva is also known as Maritime Blue I believe. That was only available on the 1991/92 cars in the UK as a standard color.

Azure was a standard color, as was Ocean, and Copenhagen. The rest were special order.

Tony--You are the blue expert! That Taho blue car with the super-clean D90's is sweet!

Blue S2

HAHAHA, whats sad is im only listing the 944 colors. There were other blues in those years not offered on the 944 series, and then different paint codes for a couple of them. Variations in hues. Its threads like this that highlight the random Porsche info dorks like me! (another..."why do I know this" moment!) SSShhh, dont tell!

AndyK

Hmmm...what shade of blue are your Crate amps??

Blue S2

Voodoo Blue! Actually, it probably is Ocean Blue now that you mention it, since its not quite as dark as Azure... HAHA!

You're car is the nicest blue car I've ever seen! I love the Cobalt on the 968 as well.

Blue S2

Thanks. Yeah, Cobalt is on more 968s than it is on 1991 944s. The new Cobalt on the modern cars is nice too, but its a different shade. It doesn't turn purple anymore. (or not as drastically)

Blue S2

Damn Andy!!!!! You just gave me the awesomest idea with your post about my amp.... HAHAHAHA. My amp sports a massive black open metal grill....something we all hold dear in the sports car world...haha....Why have a massive Crate logo...when I can put a badge on it! HAHAHA...Hmm...i might have to do some custom work in photoshop before i hit the parts catalogs....

MAN!!! i love those wheels on that baltic blue one!!! what are those?

Blue S2

Kahn RSRs in 18". VERY RARE!!!!!!! Pete had them on the car, and then he sold them before he sold the car I think. Is R.Rocket around? Maybe he knows since he bought the car from Pete. One day that Baltic Blue car and mine will do a photoshoot together, its destined!
