Riviera Blue VS Mexico Blue

![Question](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Has anyone seen both of these colors in person? What is the difference and in your opinion which color in nicer? Sorry a buddy of mine told me they were different and I always thought they were the same.
Thanks,
Chris

Here is Blue Turquoise (top) and Riviera (bottom)
To me Blue Turquoise looks like Mexico Blue.
Which one looks better? There is no wrong choice, they both look great!

I think these blues go in this order, from light to dark
1) Riviera - almost pastel, the terms bubble gum, cotton candy, etc. get used. You would know since you have one![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
2) Mexico Blue - I think that this is an in between color, not as light as Riviera, not quite as dark as turquoise blue. Other colors similar include Adriatic Blue and Maritime Blue)
3) Turquoise - in some light conditions, particularly darker/shade, you can really see the green in this color, it looks truly like turquoise, however, I find that in direct sunlight it is very hard to differentiate from Riviera. I could put my car in bright sunlight and there would be very little difference. For instance, look at Darin's wives' cab...its in shady condition, so looks darker. Then look at my avatar. My local shop calls the color of my car "lipstick blue"... which I think kind of works.
I think all three are gorgeous on our cars...
