I believe that is "maritime blue". It was a color for the 964RS. I have never seen a 993 in this shade.

I thought it looked like Riviera Blue, but it could also be a paint-to-sample car, which was an option on the RS America.

Whoever is behind that website did a helluva job on it ...

The picture, if you hold your cursor over it, says it is maritime blue, as well.

Thank you.

I LOVE that color. As well as Baltic blue. Which would look better on a 997?

Your guess is as good as anyone's. Nobody knows what the 997 looks like yet.
