No kidding!
I think it may be in your neighborhood!
I'll bet it does not have sticky dials and surfaces either!

That's actually a great combo, Robbie, if I picture it in my head. Ever seen it in real life? Can't be many about.

Not sure any 355's were sprayed in Azzuro.
I have seen a 348 in Azzuro with crema int but no 355.
With fewer than 30 360's sprayed in that color and no known 430's, there is no doubt that the color is not used frequently.

There are 5 on www.f355registry.com.
Well, there's at least a couple of Scuderias in that colour. Several of the press vehicles in the tests I've seen were Azzurro California. I also seem to remember that the Fifth Gear 430 spider (the one in their commercial break snippet) is Azzurro California. It certainly is a light metallic blue.
Up till recently it was a bit of a forgotten colour but recently I've seen it more and more, particularly on the new California of course.

Those 430's and Scuderia's were not Azzuro.
That blue was a new derivative of Azzuro but it has a different name, and I forgot what it is called.
There is also Mirabeau that was sprayed on one or two 360's in 2002 that looks like Azzuro as well. That color I have personally seen.
The promo California is Azzuro.
In the 2006 into of the 599 at Pebble I inquired about Azzuro and I was told that color was not planned for the 599.
So I doubt any 599's were yet sprayed in Azzuro.

I respectfully disagree. I can't access YouTube myself but Google tells me this clip shows an Azzurro California 430 Scuderia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6pdsCSOR6A
And the Scud below is certainly Azzurro California.
BTW - Azzurro is just Italian for (light) blue. There are several Azzurro's in Ferrari's history. The colour we were talking about was Azzurro California.

That Scuderia is not Azzuro.
And so you know, Azzuro is a special formulation mixed for Enzo after his first visit to Monterey, CA, in the late 50's.
So while the term refers to "blue" it is it's own color.
And I am referring to Azzuro California and I speak from personal knowledge!

There appear to be two shades of Azzurro Blue...
...I personally am torn between Giallo Modena (as distinct from Giallo Fly, which I think is lighter) and any one of the darker blues (TDF, Pozzi, Nart) with a Crema or Tan interior (except the steering wheel and upper dash!).
