#3 looks like Mexico Blue, I believe there is actually a PTS RS around in Mexico Blue with orange highlights ... it looks great.

#1 is my least favorite.., since I probably am not going to paint the car this color., I'll give away the name., its a new color, and I don't think anyone has seen what it actually looks like in person., so I was curious and had a spray card made, it's called ipanema blue..
