Help My identify this colour

Hi guys,

I'm about to bid on this car at an auction but I need to know for sure that it is the right colour.

Its a 2007.

I'm thinking its a STORMY BLUE MICA but just want to be 100% sure. Any ideas?

Thanks!

From this angle, it looks like it might be Phantom Blue.

Isn't Stormy Blue Mica since it's a 2007?
Unless Phantom Blue is another name for it...

Stormy Blue and Phantom Blue were both available for 2007. (Stormy Blue was also available on 07 Mazda SUV's).

That looks more Stormy than Phantom to me. You could call a mazda dealer with the color code and they can tell you. Also PM zoom44, he knows all the mazda tech stuff.

Even in the sun, I just think it's too light to be Stormy Blue.

Stormy blue is 35J
Phantom Blue is 32C

So...............Phantom blue it is!

Nuttin......but if he wants a Stormy, he better go read my post again!
It's not 32C....it's 35J

Anyway.....if Stormy had been there when I bought mine, I would've picked it for sure!

I can't tell what phantom blue looks like because every pic looks different. Guess I'll see what it looks like tomorrow (hopefully)

That is Phantom Blue. Stormy Blue turns purple in the sun.
