A bit too purple for me, but here's a stunning 964 Turbo in Mari Blue.

Nah, you both have it wrong. Minerva Blue is the best.

I like it (in the pic and on that car) tho. The tough thing about car colors is it is very hard to make an informed decision without seeing it in the metal and in various lighting conditions. But, in general, Porsches look good in blue to me.

Very similar to Laguna Seca Blue for the BMW M cars.

Default Here is the car I bought last month.

I'm a fan - duh! Mine is an '06 and I know of just one other in the US, a 997.1 GT3. There are probably others.
