What is this P80 Blue Color

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

Possibly...  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:

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.. :tongue:

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.
