Individual blue matching Tobago Blue from E31?
What current blue is the closest match to the original E31 Tobagoblau (Tobago Blue)?

Seems to be quite a bit lighter than what is shown... Just looked at the sample of Tobago in the PDF posted above - I agree, this is the closest match... Maybe also Blue Hira Mica... Last edited by bayarea328xit; 08-27-2024 at 08:08 PM.. |

More blue and lighter than the color above - also the above has a bit of purple (also missing in Blue Onyx)... |

 Tobago Blue Above  Avus Blue --- I do agree that Tobago is a little more purple and flatter but I think the colors are actually a lot closer than you think especially when you look at Avus on older models. If they had new Tobago Blue it wouldn't look the same as the old one either. That pdf doesn't really show the color well. |
