I thought Blue Mica was a Toyota color. Oh well. Midnight Blue is awesome. I wish it came as a factory color, like the Mazda 6.

the color shown above is called Strato Blue Mica, which is available in the US on the Mazda3.

the paint code for Strato Blue Mica is.... 25E

but don't paint the yellow! it's going to be discontinued after '04! a collector's color in the future!

but, if you're referring to the older Midnight Blue Mica color that i have on my '00 Protege, the paint code for that color is 22A

Midnight Blue and Strato Blue are very similar, Strato being a little deeper and a little purpler.

Anyone know how many litres of paint would be needed to cover a single coat on the 8?

I'm tempted by :

Green to purple... but at £225 a ltr, and needing 3-5 coats, not going to be cheap!

that is beautiful. If they offered that from the start I wouldn't doubt it would have been the most popular color. I would have tried to snach one up myself.

Yeah i love it too, but at £225 a litre, not going to be a cheap job!

They do various other stuff there too, like metalic flakes, and even a chrome effect paint!!!
