I'm a bit color blind, but this exchange has revalidated my sense of worth.
Last fall, I almost bought a semi-trashed 92 4 door 900S that had been parked for months right up the street from me, unregistered. I wanted to grab the doors to replace the rusted ones on my car, a Malachite '89 turbo. It looked identical in color to me. I even parked my car near it one evening and eyeballed back and forth.
The guy let it go instead to a local indy he owed money to, and when I went there to try and dicker for the doors, they informed me that the car was not the same color as mine but actually gray, Platana I guess.
Now I've got proof that others too find it hard to tell.
