That is actually an 89 NA (non turbo) with Sport 300 body parts (front end and wheel arch extensions).Azure blue {much darker} came out on the V8 Esprits and is supposed to be very rare. Hot Wheels also made a die-cast in that color but it was only available in the 'multi-pack' Exotic rides collection.
The color combo on this SE is very sweet :drool:

Yeah I was going to post midnight blue (I remember when Chris had the car with no interior), but figured I'd let you post it...Weins calls his winchester blue
Mine is A51 midnight blue![]()
Funny how things come full circle. I actually have been in contact with Chris Urban since last November a week before I bought the car. He moved from Chicago and now lives near Milwaukee. The car and I have history as it was the 1st Esprit Turbo that I drove about 15 years ago. It was several years later when Chris bought it and brought it back to Chicago. I was visiting relatives in St Charles, IL and they told me about a small car dealer off of Randall Rd. There it was and I took it for a test drive, also met Nuncio there right before he went to start Fox Valley. Must have been on consignment cause he would not budge on the price. Just a little over my budget as it only had like 7K on the clock at the time. Hope my parts starts to come in soon so I can start to assemble my engine as soon as the weather gets better. We got hammered by snow again today. Seems like a long winter.Yeah I was going to post midnight blue (I remember when Chris had the car with no interior), but figured I'd let you post it...![]()
My 76 3.4 GT Saloon was more powder blue but I never could find an official paint chit for its name.Has a Jag V6.
That is Pacific Blue I believe.
