Dark Blue Factory Colors
Looking for photos and opinions on factory dark blue Porsche colors. After I finish up my rust work it’s off to paint but I’m stumped on the color.
Picks so far are: - Marine Blue Metallic - Prussian Blue - Venetian Blue Metallic - Dark Blue - Baltic Blue Metallic I think Marine Blue is the ticket. I have a flaw that I see purple in most darker blues but not so much this one. Interior is dark brown leather with tan square weave carpet. Any dark blues I’m missing? Photos? Thanks all! |

Are you open to other makes? Mercedes has a very dark, deep metallic navy blue that is beautiful.

Marine Blue in direct sun can flash a little purple. That’s why I love it.

Midnight Blue. Looks black in the shade, but pops in the sun

My SC is Midnight blue. As above - dark but pops in the sun to reveal a nice colour.
Looks a bit darker than Marine Blue. Can take a pic in sunlight tomorrow. Alan

I personally like Dunkel Blue too but it’s not a metallic.

Beautiful cars! I really think dark blues just work with the G Body cars. Marine Blue is stunning....

If you are willing to go old-school, check out Aga Blue on Rennbow.
First time I saw a 911 in Aga Blue I was literally stopped in my tracks...
