I used 'Sail Blue' in the Krylon rattle can.

Believe it is Acidblau - 354 (Bahama Blue)

Load 354 into this link in the "Wild Card" field then look for Porsche in the colors returned.

Color-Online

Other blue codes from 74 / 75.

Gulf Blue 328
Metallic Blue 334
Steel Blue Metallic 631 (wheels for 25 year edition)
Mexico Blue 336

I believe you are correct. Apologize for posting the wrong years. I should have been looking at the 73 vs 74/75.

Good you found it. Peter Morgan's book says that the RS Carrera had "alternative special order colors". However, Mexico Blue is not a standard or optional color choice for bodies in '73. Must be under "alternative"

Although, the picture you post does not look "Mexico Blue" (looks a wee bit darker) I searched Google and below is a picture from the Pebble Beach Concour and those wheels definitely look Mexico Blue.



Here is Mexico Blue on a Carrera:
