Azurro California or Anniversary?

Ran into this gentlemen in West Covina with his Azurro California or is it called Anniversary. Never seen one in person until today.

Hopefully you can make it out through the not-so-good photos.

Azzuro California is such a awesome color. It was the color on the PCA 997 club coupe.

I thought it was Azurro. He refered to it as Anniversary a few times so I just stopped there.

This color caught my attention 1/2 block away so I pulled in too talk with him.

Me to on the grilles, better in black.

That is definitely not Azurro. The below Boxster is Azurro and the below 997 Cab is Horizon. The color above looks more like Fountain such as in the below 997TT (per Atomic 80) but it's a deeper shade of blue than Fountain. Perhaps it is "Anniversary", although I've never heard of that color before and I've been researching the various blue colors. It almost looks like the below 996TT cab, which is Zircon Blue (a Jag color). It's always so damm hard to tell in pics though.

Could just be the white balance on the camera phone, even the whites have a beige tint. Here is a pic of the anniv club sport color. It's a RUF Boxster but it's the same color whatever it's called.

Gorgeous color nonetheless, regardless of name.

Agreed, have yet to see a 997TT where the painted grills 'work'.
