It's Innocent Blue Mica from everything that I've researched on it. It is the 10th anniversary Miata Blue.
Paint code 20P.
The car just looks dark in these pics. It was sunny when I piced it up and it does look just like this.....

Just to let you know. Considering most of us have never seenthis color in person on a RX7. This color chages hues in different lighting. Similar to Montego blue. This one though doesn't turn green..just lighter or darker..Here are some pics that are all IBM Fd's.

I'm sure the pictures don't do the paint job justice. Looks sweet though.

The car looks great, please post more pics when the sun comes back out. How much did that paint job set you back. It looks beautiful.

BTW, is your rear logo a chromed 1st gen side logo?

Cost me $1147. Cost Progressive insurance $5500.
Good call that is a 1st gen fender badge. It's not chromed though. Just straight from the dealer. I got mine at www.victoriabritish.com

Also your right sorry I live in Maryland near DC.

And actually to confess.......

I have a 94 so everything was already black (except the seats and carpet), so the black interior paint just enhanced the look) dying the carpet was no big deal it turned out perfect too. I got the new seat covers from leatherseats.com, but the seats had some tan plastic pieces and the paint peels off them. So I think you probably thought my doors and bins were tan.

Its cool, but your car looks great!
