I dont remember the name of it, but i was looking at that as well. It was a little too loud for me though, really bright. I liked this color because it reacts to light really well, if you see one in person it almost looks like it changes colors in different light.

-STRATO BLUE MICA- Mazda 3i

-WINNING BLUE METALLIC- Mazda 3s

I believe that the winning blue metallic is the color your thinking of... It is most like the Z color! Really bright! Would look sweeeeet on an fc!

P.S. (off topic)
The design pic's of the cars were pretty cool looking!

hmm, I like the winning blue metallic as well. I'll have to see one in person. For now Daytona Blue is still first choice, since I have about a week left to decide.

this was the last one I uploaded to my computer. The rest of the kit is a Corksport/Border front bumper, aero mirrors, and a Mariah fresh air headlight cover. Thats about it for aesthetic mods with the exception of new wheels and a completely redone interior.

Wasn't there a factory FC color called Sapphire Blue Metallic?


I had an FC parts car that was a metallic blue color. It was very nice looking.

sapphire blue met. for the S4 is a similar version of harbour blue met. for the S5

if it was a dark navy blue, thats called brave blue mica...like my car. its a 1991-only colour and i believe the 2nd. rarest FC colour with winning silver being the first.
