Not sure if it was Shark Blue or not. Never seen that color in person but if it is in fact Shark Blue, it is very close to Miami Blue.
But judging by the carbon fiber bits it has the Weissach Package as well as PCCB's.
As spec'd (from what I saw) that was a $200k Cayman! Crazy lol.
Yep, quite sure that car is Shark Blue. Miami Blue has a few more greenish hues in there and is a bit lighter as you can see below:

Oh yeah definitely more green in the Miami Blue.
Could have been Riviera Blue? Maritime Blue? Mexico Blue? Voodoo Blue? lol ALL THE BLUE!!!!!!!!!
But probably Shark Blue....

They are all so similar!
I'd be surprised if I don't run into it again at one of the local meet-ups, and at that point...I'll track down the owner hah.

While we're here, please keep my brother in law in your thoughts and prayers as he just bought an R8 with 100k miles on it.
😵‍💫

Liking both watches and cars: why not? Taking pictures while driving on what looks like an autobahn of the watch you wish to sell on ebay? Hmmm... 🤨

Figured I’d gum up the works with my 1994 f-150 4x4 daily. 63,000 original miles. Needs a wash but not much else. 4 inch BDS lift on 35 inch tires. It’s a workhorse not a show pony. Damn near go anywhere you’d dare to try…just don’t expect it to break any speed records 😀

Woke my old Alfa up out of its hibernation to take my son to his formal yesterday. He only mentioned a couple of weeks ago he'd like to go in the Alfa so it was a scramble to get it happening! Replaced all of the suspension and brakes as it was running on pretty much the original tired gear. A bit more fettling and it will be ready for some nice long runs through the mountains.

Webers. Rebuilt original engine. Compared to what we made locally at the time the Italians were leading from the front with the alloy twincam engine and 5 speed gearbox, disc brakes all round etc.

I had a Gulia Super, same colour too, never looked as good as that though, however it did boast a perfect pigskin interior!
And I agree they were very advanced, took some other countries 20 to 30 years to catch up, but they never caught up with these cars personality…..
They had it in spades!
