Help With This Colour?

Hey everyone!

My boyfriend and I saw this BRZ in Atlanta, GA and when we talked to the owners they said it was a limited edition Periwinkle colour, that they only made 500 of. After doing further research, we cannot find the colour ANYWHERE. We have compared colours of Hyper Blue and other blue-ish colors but nothing is a match. It looks too clean to be a repaint or wrap...

Any help?
-Luci

EDIT: It's Hyper Blue, just an off-putting photo but we got it

HMMMM Maybe my monitor is distorting the colour. Doesn't look like hyper blue to me.




Edit: Nope you are right. Tail lights make the difference.

We saw this in May of 2017, so can't be the 50th Anniversary. It wasn't Hyper Blue either, the colour really stood out.

And tails and wheels. It is a hyper blue. My colour is just way off on my monitor. The lighting doesn't help either though.

I see I see. But still limited to 500, which is cool.

Thank you two for your help!

Well if it isn't hyper blue it is not a production colour from anytime prior to 2017. Could be a wrap.

Has nice blue trim in the interior as well. Nicer than the standard interior.

Looks almost bang on the Heritage blue on mine. That was what fooled me. I didn't even look at the parts at first since the blue was so close.
