It's always difficult to identify certain colours via digital images as opposed to seeing them (ie the car) 'in the flesh' - & 'Orange' falls into that category.


My guess for the second car would be Signal Orange …

Completely agree. I felt the more knowledgeable may have been able to deduce the colours from the model, on the assumption the colours of course were specific to certain variants/model years.

.....I think the first one is Tangerine, or Blut orange if you prefer, code 018.

No idea on the other two.
Thank you - reason for asking was knowing one of the two must have been Tangerine but not knowing which one :P - so you've addressed that.

As for the 356, it really was stunning, hadn't seen a colour like it before, offered a lot of 'depth' too.

.....to me it doesn't look either Signal or Gulf but that may be the photo/lighting?

Jeremy's 356A is a very similar colour, I think (but he'll have to confirm).

I think you're right Sam - I don't know why I typed Signal Orange 'cos I was actually thinking of Gulf Orange …

Mine is graphite metallic :

It changes a lot with the light.

The one you’re talking about looks like one of the darker greys.
