This pic shows the difference between Riviera Blue and Mexico Blue.

The hood in the foreground is my Riviera Blue 997.1. Behind it is Larry's 997.2 GT3 in Mexico Blue.

In the direct sun there's a noticeable difference. A little earlier we had both cars parked in the shade and no one could see any difference in the colors what so ever.

Ditto on losing the stripes. IMHO they just distract from the classic form and lines.

Side by side.....perfect. That's what I was hoping someone had. Thanks.

Tom, you're actually more of a Blue M&M than a Smurf. (I have a theory about this I'll PM you about at some point.)
