I'd had gold, silver and charcoal colors, since my last Mazda. 06 MX5 dark green mica touring. I wanted a COLOR again, and think my Stormy Blue Mica paint is perfect. It has a hint of violet in it, not just a standard blue.I washed and hand waxed recently... looks stellar in sunlight (mica sparkles) and at night with dark windows and lower molding. Couldn't be happier with the color!
