What color is this cabrio?

Not being the cabrio expert...I saw this on craigslist and don't know what the specific blue color is called. Any help?

Wow, that's a maybe a thousand from the new 2008 price. Always amazed at the resale value of these things.

It was one of the two cabrio-only colors. The other was Hot Orange.

Ah no wonder I haven't noticed it! It's being way overshadowed by the orange! (If I had my choice I would've picked an orange r56

That was one of my original color options (cool blue) w/white rims and mirror caps.Then I thought about the orange with green top and white rims/mirror caps, but that was a little too over the top even for a Miami fan.

Speaking of colors....did you hear about a new color for the 09 Cabrios? I forgot the name, but it is basically the same color has a highlighter with not quite the flourescents.

Nice pic.

Yes, it does(almost as much as Hot Orange ). My brother just bought a Cool Blue 2005 MCC. He lives in Tucson so I haven't seen it. I keep telling him I need to see pics of it, but he hasn't sent any yet.

Blimey, we told him how great Cool Blue looks when properly "Union Jackified" , but I don't think he share's your passion.
