Picture request: azurite blue

[Guest]

Can anyone post pictures of any porsches (doesnt have to be a 944) in azurite blue please, ideally not the metallic version.

Also i remember my mother having a '87 Audi 80, which looked a very similar colour from what ive seen.... and i cant say i liked it... did audi use "azurite blue" too?

Search as there was a thread some time ago where we tried to get a picture of all the colours available. We failed miserably, but as we have at least one Azure blue car among our contributors then there might well be a pic there.

Basically it's quite a dark non metallic. Less charitable might describe it as "doom blue", but I'd never say that personally []

Thanks Peter - I can't usually be bothered to search myself.

Anyway having gone through it there is no Azure blue in the thread (Kev, Kev, KEV!)

As an aside I vote the thread is stickied to see if we can get some more from the people who have joined us since it dropped down the list.

Despite Fen's quip about 'Doom Blue'[], I like it too. It has a great depth to it when waxed and polished. It's a bu66er to keep clean though!

He's becoming a real show off with all this 'puter stuff

Excellent idea. Can I suggest that everyone that posts a new colour includes the name of the colour and the paint code too as that would really help identification.
Best regards,
Peter

Sorry. To be fair I wouldn't be living up to my reputation if I wasn't offending or alienating part of the membership with at least one post in 4. Don't take it to heart - I have lots of opinions, that way at least some of them will probably be right []

No need to be sorry Fen, it all adds to the fun. I'm quite used to you by now, and being a Yorkshireman by birth, I have thick skin!!
