lol, i had to look the name up and what it came on, i knew the code. you paint cars all day everyday then you have hundreds of paint codes floating around your head, which is handy because you can always find the original paint code and people sometimes like to "change the color", which is pure evil to a painter trying to match color on a spot repair.

nsx long beach blue has way more perl in it

OMG tell me about it, dont you love mixing paint and finding out that it dosent even closely match, grrrrrrr

but hey if you like that shade of blue, BMW put a very similar paint on their "M" series cars, just call the dealer and get the paint code from them.

"Fresco Blue Pearl" - B64P - is a lot lighter and looks almost purple-ish. Has purple flakes in the paint.
