Looks stunning in real life, more of a powder blue

In real life it changes from baby blue in dull overcast conditions to white in bright light and in direct sunlight has an unbelievable sparkle to it. Bit like throwing silver glitter all over it. Rare colour and an expensive MSO option.

Agreed - mauvine or lantana for me from photos alone; although to be honest most of the McLaren colours are pretty stunning. Keen to seen Amethyst or Abyss black in person to see how they compare (and assist a potential purchase), as they can look amazing.

Based on the pictures, I think I'd spell it "purple" wink

One is latana purple, and one one is mauvine blue. Again I apologise for the spelling.



I don’t understand their names either

My 600LT is Papaya Spark which I thought was McLaren Orange with added reflective sparkles but it's not, it's quite a bit darker than McLaren Orange......I like it but I won't have it again........I'll be going back to Napier Green, it's my favourite colour by a million miles..........my 570s attracts way more attention than the 600LT...



But, naturally colour is probably the most subject and divisive topics when discussing cars!!
Lovely colour.

That is so stunning and would be my choice. Reminds me of the Diablo SE30
