I've been searching the Rennbow Porsche color chart trying to match the blue color of the car in the link below, but can't seem to find it.
any help or suggestions are appreciated!

That’s what I thought initially, but now I’ve learned that it’s Mexico Blue. Seems too bright though and not enough turquoise in it.
Maybe a custom color?

I had thought initially about Mexico Blue - and it could very well be - and it is period correct. Originally it would have been a single stage paint, which might appear differently to my eye too.

These colors often appear different depending on the lighting conditions.
