Default What color is this 991.2 Turbo S Stinger?

Hey all! I recently stumbled upon this incredible 911 Stinger, and I've tried so hard to find out what color this is, but no luck. Maybe some of you are able to pinpoint exactly what this is!

I'm not completely familiar with all of the Paint to Sample (PTS) colors, but I don't think I've seen this blue in their color palettes.

Most likely, this is a wrap, and I would love to know if anyone can figure out the brand and name.

For now, I'm just going to refer to it as Sexy Blue.

Looks a lot like Aetna Blue.

It could be Riviera Blue, but it's hard to tell because the skies look overcast when the pic was taken.

I'm guessing the ultra-shininess is caused by a ceramic or similar coating, not the color itself. If you ordered whatever color that is expecting the same result, I think you'd be disappointed.

Thank you all for the color guesses!

I looked into all blue guesses - Aetna, Riviera, and Miami - and I still think this "Sexy Blue" is different from them... (understandably, the lighting and potential filter may alter the look).

To me, Sexy Blue is a pretty true blue with maybeeee a hint of gray/cloudy-look.

Aetna - to me, Aetna has a slight hint of purple, so probably not that.

Riviera - to me, this one looks brighter. Sexy Blue has as more muted feel.

Miami - to me, this one has some green in it, and Sexy Blue looks pretty true blue.

I do agree with Jrod - "wicked awesome blue"!

I noticed this car is located in Hong Kong and modified by Stinger. Seems likely they also had a custom wrap?

Amazing find, Ryan. You have proven me wrong! From that video, you're absolutely right - Miami Blue. I couldn't find them explicitly saying it's Miami Blue, but after watching the video, there were hints of green in the color depending on lighting. Based on my previous observation of Miami Blue, I think we're in agreement.

I guess the overcast that day for the pictures causes Miami Blue to hide the green tone in the color. Well, that's photography/lighting for ya! Thanks again for the find here.

Someone thing is added to the pics or to the car. Miami blue is non-metallic color. It doesn't not have that type of gloss.

We all need to find out what "sexy blue" this is

Keep in mind that those Instagram photo is deeply filtered and post-processed. The photo seems to be desaturated and highlights edited. Photography is my hobby and I do a lot of post-processing, this is definitely Miami blue. I wished that was a real color, would have considered PTS.

I'm pretty sure it's Miami Blue.

This car is located in HK. The owner has a bunch of other crazy cars with 2 letter plates.

Can any PTS be metallic? Perhaps they went Miami blue metallic?
