Default NSX Blue, what exact color is it? Help pls...

I remember coming across a really great photo of a blue NSX in some postings, but I have not been able to find it again.

Can anyone re-direct me to that photo as I am trying to confirm exactly what blue it is (there is a Monaco, Monte Carlo Pearl and Long Beach apparently).

Thanks for your help...

Thanks to all of you who replied.

The car/color is the blue of what I now understand is the Monte Carlo Blue.

I wonder (and probably think) if its the same as the lovely Monte Carlo blue on the S2000? For the NSX it was "Monte Carlo Blue Pearl".

Checking further on NSX Prime they now have "Long Beach Blue Pearl" that was introduced in 2002 which is slightly lighter than Monte Carlo Blue. The Monte Carlo Blue Pearl (was offered from 1997-2000) and a Monaco Blue Pearl (slightly lighter than Monte Carlo Blue Pearl - I think the Hong Kong NSX upgrade is in that color) that was introduced in 2000 (though I am unsure if it is still being offered).

To further cnfuse things there was also a "Midnight pearl" (dark metallic blue).

Once again, thanks for all who responded.
