Is the Lambo colour Monterey Blue a solid colour or a pearl/metallic? Seem to be getting mixed results on google.

Also did/does the LP560 come in this colour, or only the Murci?

No idea on the type of paint, but I assume you can get LP560-4 in MB as you could get the old Gallardo in it.

Could you? I thought it was a newish colour. Caelum Blue (sic?) was popular on the old G; what is the diff between that and MB?

yes it does

Also although I'm sure I remember reading that Lambo were going to stop using this colour here is an Aventador in MB

Wow that looks stunning! Difficult to tell but it does look metallic/pearl rather than solid colour.

Just spent half an hour looking for a pic I remember of a (possibly) flat Monterey Blue, but I found the thread but the pics are gone. Traxx could you repaste the blue on in here?

Anyway, here's a couple more nice blues

Nova Blue


Not sure what this is; may even be purple, but I like!

It is purple, and also a wrap biggrin
The car was origonally Orange.

I think the Blue was on the Balboni's... Looks very similar, and stunning on the car.

It's blue pearl, & yes you coud get it on a G & 560 as special order, they may not call it that now as i believe it has been removed from the colour list, but you can have it (I was considering it on my Aventador) or any other colour out or range via ad personam. VI and various other colours are also now not on the colour list so if you want them its now c£6.5k instead of £3k that they used to charge when it was on the colour list.

Also the Zonda HH is Monterey Blue - http://www.zondahh.com/
