If you're talking your grey car, it's grey. I think you've been looking down the lens at the Zoo mums too much and having too many blue thoughts. :p

I know the name is Midnight Blue, but it's another Mazda color misbranding like 'Noble Green' or calling my car 'Passion Red' :p

I think the color pickers were high on a different kind of green tea.

now it looks green,
but I am colour blind that does not mean however I forfeit my right to make colour judgments.

I think you will have to wait till next cruise and all attendees can have a vote,

Count yourself lucky there is no team Blue, hmm whats a cool name ohhh "team midnight" anyone else got the blue/black BAs?

It still looks grey :p

the only way to solve this is to find out what colors and what percentage of them go into the paint to make up midnight blue.

Definately grey, the colour name might be referring to blue as in "grey" like when someone has grey hair they get called blue.....

the spies hecker website used to have a breakdown of the paints to make up a color, but doesn't seem to have it anymore....

it sorta depends on what angle you look a the car and in what light for the colour it looks, like noble green it cant decide what it wants to be :P

yey for mine baan called classic red you cant get any more red than that :P

Aha! Found it!

Spies Hecker Color Breakdowns (http://www.shcolor.info)


Your color is Indigo Blue, not midnight apparently. Produced from 1996-2000

Tint - Color - quantity (grams)
MB518 FEINSILBER - 593.7
MB574 TIEFSCHWARZ - 1603.8
MB514 SILBER - 431.4
MB556 DUNKELVIOLETT - 567.8
MB547 TIEFBLAU - 362.8
MB554 LASURTIEFBLAU - 384.1
MB799 METALLIC ADDITIV - 324.6

As you can see there's a hell of a lot more black (SCHWARZ) than blue (BLAU) in there :P

So, your car is grey ;)

James you were always in :p
Ryan you are part of Team Dent which is a sub-division of Team Grey
And for the debarkle which has rendered some sort of reasoning to post such hard words about the state of our tunes (Mines a concerto in the making). I suggest a few Naprogesic and call me in the morning
:D

the mentioning of the state of tunes was only good banta pete, sorry if i offended you. and my understanding is also now - that once i get under my wheels arches done, then i'll be team crazy-mofo, hehe (ask nate)
