1) At least on my part, I have always been kidding when I say that
Z12 'Voodoo Blue' has a proud color history...but at Toyota, not PAG!
It was just my way to tease the owners of these 'Voodoo Blue' Porsches.
To my knowledge, no one has documented, or proven, that the Porsche
color code Z12 is the same as the color 'Voodoo Blue' from the Toyota
FJ cruiser.

2) Hp1: There is no correlation between any other manufacturer's
color code (e.g. Voodoo Toyota 8t6) & the color code Porsche assigns
to a hue that they approve (e.g. Porsche Z12). PAG color code system
is unique to that manufacturers. And it frankly doesn't prove, or disprove,
anything that the internal color codes for 'Voodoo' are not the same at
Toyota & Porsche.

3) PTS is customer driven. So a customer has to request a color
by submitting a sample and then Porsche does a feasibility study
for coverage, fading, et al. on the different surfaces (plastic, steel,
aluminum, magnesium, etc) on a particular Porsche model. It is
then approved or not. If the requested color is NOT a vintage/
historic Porsche color that has a previous association with the
marque (e.g. 'Signal Orange' or 'Gulf Blue'), the requesting PTS
customer can decide WHAT to call the color he/she requested.
So it can be 'Hot Rod Pink Metallic'; or 'Pink Shoe'; or....
'Voodoo Blue'. More than likely the person at PAG that
received the customer's 'Voodoo Blue' sample did not question
the customer's color name designation for it. 'Voodoo' is not a
copyrighted name. So if the customer decided to call it 'Voodoo'
& it's approved by PAG after feasibility study, the requested name
would be also approved for it! The color might be identical to
Toyota's 'Voodoo Blue'...or not. But the customer had the right
to call it that regardless.

4) Having said all of that, it would not surprise me if the original
PTS request for 'Voodoo Blue' (which was done on a .2 997 I believe)
came from someone that thought he/she was trying to duplicate the
FJ Cruiser's color. Whether Z12 indeed approximates Toyota's 'Voodoo'
remains yet to be determined. I encourage someone with the ability
to do a scientific investigation of the colors via a spectrophotometer
to solve this mystery for us.

I am sure Gerald didn't mean to say that the photo above contains
'Mint'. The latter is located in the third photo of his second post



which can be found below:

I don't believe so, juncinv!




That looks to me like a 'Metallic' green. And
there are many PTS colors that could look like
that...although we need a better photo to try
to narrow it down.

Gerald, I congratulate you again for having the
ability to take all of these photos.

Steven: dertub guessed correctly. This David Coyne photo is
indeed 'Ultraviolet'. Photographic representations of colors
are often not what you expect to see...with your own eyes!
So caveat lector!

Photo was taken on Jan 23rd, 2016 in California:

OT: Eduardo what are you doing in Marathon? Awesome little artsy West Texas town. Similar to Wimberly, TX near me...

Any idea if the one next to the Mint green RS is Gulf blue?

juncinv

Thanks for the clarification Eduardo.
Any idea what possible shade that might be?
I know it is so hard to distinguish with such a small photo.
