There was an Albert Blue that is darker. There is also an Adriatic Blue that looks darker than that car. It could be Olympic Blue or Laguna Blue, but those are later year 914 colors.
Get the paint code and go this web site:

I once knew a guy who had a Mexico blue 911SC. He was on our tour of China about 20 years ago. I wonder what he's up to these days...
