NJGreenBudd Posted January 15, 2022 Report Posted January 15, 2022 I'm thinking about a repaint for my V70 and digging this blue but can't say I've seen it in person on any Volvo. I had Nautic Blue (Volvo Dark Blue Metallic 417) so I know it's not that. Im thinking these are either Volvo Turquoise Pearl Metallic 422 or Volvo Aqua Pearl Metallic 431 Any help would be much appreciated. I was trying to use this as a reference https://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/colour_swatch_volvo_1998
NJGreenBudd Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Posted January 16, 2022 Hmm, I think it actually is Nautic 417......doesn't look like
NJGreenBudd Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Posted January 16, 2022 This is what my Nautic looked like..... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2000-volvo-v70-xc-awd-wagon/
DragosD Posted January 17, 2022 Report Posted January 17, 2022 Possibly... Tropical Green Metallic 412

Tropical Green Metallic 412 I think 412 and 417 are a bit darker than what OP is looking for. Just for reference, here's my 412, a fairly common color on the 850: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6512nzyzqb9okjd/855T-afterWashnWax.JPG?raw=1 The color I've always pined for is the 421, aka "olive". Quite rare in the states, more common in Europe from what I've seen. But that's more of a green. IMO the 412 is more of a blue, but the Mrs says it's more green; i.e. ymmv depending on your personal rods and cones..

JoshV70 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Posted January 20, 2022 Probably 422 Turquoise Pearl Metallic.
NJGreenBudd Posted January 20, 2022 Author Report Posted January 20, 2022 I agree it doesn't look like any 417 I've seen in person. Nautic Blue doesn't have much green in it at all where these appear to have a tiny to them, brighter than Nautic. Anyways I appreciate the input, well see if we go with a blue/green or just a black respray.
LaimaSeih Posted April 7, 2022 Report Posted April 7, 2022 Car with this color looks unique and more eye catchy. Everyone likes unique one. Keep as it is.
