What color is this

I saw this color on a web site and wanted to know if these pics are authentic or photoshopped.

Well, when you

right click on the picture and go to properties, the name of the file had "Velvet Blue" in the name. Wonder if that color is available in the US

Does Mercedes offer color to sample like Porsche does?

This color is not in any US mercedes brochure. I have looked at the MB website throughout various countries and still no match. I think that either: 1) the person photoshopped the car, or 2) This is Quartz Blue.
