Not sure if it's an OEM color, but I think that I am in love.

It looks to me like that is a 70 model, so I'd guess Bridgehampton Blue.

Sure looks like Mulsanne blue.
Which is the same 976 paint code as LeMans blue.

It's actually a '73, Mark. Look at the chrome rear bumpers, then down to the rectangular exhausts, now to the fender vents, and finally to the vent in the hood. I'd have to suppose that it has a soft nose.

I bought a brandnew 1982 that looked like that. I don't remember the code, but the color was called "Silver Blue Matalic". It was nice!
