No...it's not. It is dark blue, but it is not identical.

It could be the same base color but it looks like it has purple and blue and silver flake in it. Dunno if the Ultra has as much flake. It also has Pearl in it, I don't know if the Ultra has Pearl in it.

Here's closer pic. If someone can get a closer pic of the Ultra would be interesting to compare here before the live comparison. Only side by side will the differences would be apparent.

Are there any images of a 2015 UM and 2016 Oceanic next to each other? One of my local dealers has both, but I don't want to drive out there just to see the difference because then I'll be suckered into sitting at a desk with a dealer trying to sell me the car when I'm not ready atm.

Just tell them you want to compare the colors, no need to sit down with a salesman. Just go to the dealer you bought the car from.

Is that a TRD wing in second picture? How did you managed to color match it?

thats a 5Axis spoiler. I got the color code from the Toyota Japan site when they posted it. I looked it up and its a Subaru color code K3X (different from the Ultra code) It's called Lapis Blue Pearl. anyway I got the code and the Votech I work at has an auto body shop and he painted it for me no charge :P

Cool thanks, so any auto body shop should know the color code then? I'm thinking about adding a lip kit on an Oceanic.

The code is on the door sill sticker on passenger side. It's Subaru Lapis Blue Pearl. Been out for a few years

Still waiting on a comparison pic between Oceanic and Ultramarine. Right now it's between Oceanic and Steel for my color of choice.

There is a Steel brz at the dealership. It's a great looking color in all lights. A big improvement over argento imo.

Can't go wrong with either color although I have not seen much of Oceanic blue. I went with silver because it hides scratches/dirt/dust better and would be easy to color match if it was ever needed. Here is the thread to the 1GU (steel/ice silver metallic) http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76889
It has deep dark shadows with a hint of blue. I love mine.
