The correct "shade" even if he has it, won't be the correct "shade" on your monitor unless it has been color corrected, not something that many casual users on the forum have, I'd suspect. That said, here's mine . . . . . .

Someone correct me if I am wrong but my understanding is there was shade variation within the same model year for Nassau Blue.

If you are looking to match the correct color, why not just buy the absolutely correct color, under the original color code from Dupont?........... There are way too many reasons that colors over the internet are not accurate...

Have to agree both are very nice but a nassau blue coupe has always been my favorite.
