Very cool. Interesting to see Mexico on 675LT.

I like british best.
Thanks Lapis. Appreciate the confirmation on the greens as been trying to collate and confirm myself but simple and clear examples here now. I like the lighter irish myself.

Thanks - had no idea how it would turn out, since McLaren never did that color before. They sent me paint samples back and forth from England until I confirmed it was the right color. Now Mexico Blue (after my car was the first McLaren to do it) is one of their most popular "paint to sample" colors. Lewis Hamilton's dad and Daniel Riccardo got their 675s in Mexi Blue after seeing mine apparently.

If this helps, I had compiled a list of all the PTS approved blues and tried to find pics online to match. I can't vouch for accuracy of pics as I did it via google search, but at least you can see what all the available blues are if you want to go PTS blue.
