Long Beach Blue Pearl

Beautiful color!

But how different is it from Monte Carlo blue? And what connection does Honda have to Long Beach? Or Monte Carlo, for that matter?

That is a great color. Do you have any more pics in different better lighting?

I can't tell the difference, in fact, I thought you already posted this pic.

Thanks, Rayman.

That color is one of the nicest blues I have seen. I am going to see what it would cost to get that color paint for my BMW.

I think that color is my favorite on the NSX (though i have never seen any blue NSX's in person) I'm not sure, but i think that the Long Beach Blue Pearl has just a small touch of metallic in it, where the others don't. I could be wrong though.

One of F1's greatest qualifying laps was at Monte Carlo by Ayton Senna in a Honda-powered McLaren in 1991.

Go to the video "Senna's pole position lap in Monaco" to see the lap.

Long Beach is a little odd because F1 left it before Honda entered F1. Still, it's not as bad as Pontiac putting "Le Mans" on what was just a Suzuki Swift (or whatever car it was that they rebadged)
