Rare Color Combo Tanzanite Blue/Capri blue Blk Int???

Rare Color Combo Tanzanite Blue/Capri Blue with Black interior?

Does anyone know if this is a rare color combo here in the States?

What is the proper name of the Paint for these years: Tanzanite Blue or Capri Blue?

W204 C63 2008-2010/2011-2012
I have yet to see a used one.
All of the used ones... White, Black Exterior most seen, Silver and then the Grey

It's funny because I didn't go check that out when the dealer posted it because it was blue, it's the exact color of our other two vehicles

agree... I only wanted white on black, PFL with Performance pkg and the only one I could find was in Texas which I bought. I'm in California.

JUST FOR KICKS

Just for kicks I did a nationwide search on Autotrader and only found 3 Blue but only 1 with Blue/Black Combo
let me clarify my search results...
2010 in Texas with grey Interior

2009 in New Jersey with black
2010 in New Jersey with tan

so based on that it super rare Combo

My last C63 was a 2011 Capri blue model with light gray interior. I would like to post some pics, can I do that from my cell phone?

The color is stunning in the sunlight, very rare and kind of elegant. A light interior does complement this exclusive color.

One of my very good friends has a PFL capri blue with white interior. Gorgeous car, and probably the best looking C63 I've worked on.

The light blue is QuartzBlue
There are three (2010) of them in the States and only one with the P31
