What color is this?
Saw this in Off Topic. It's amazing and if the paint is still available where would I order it from? I may have plans to repaint a car sometime soon and I've been scoping out colors. This may be it.

Sure looks like Mexico Blue to me. Color code 336 (at least in the 70s - they're still offering it as far as I can tell, so it's probably got an updated code).

I really like the adriatic blue color I've seen on a GT2 like this:

My dad used to sell these in the 70's so he has a bunch of literature and dealer propaganda. This list is from a 1974 Porsche-Audi fact handbook(for use within the the Porsche Audi organization only)....or so it warns me on the first page.
