Acid Blue is a vivid, saturated medium blue solid — at #0E5DCE it reads as a bright, electric blue that sits between royal blue and cobalt, with a clarity and intensity that earns the "acid" descriptor. It is a bold, confrontational blue that makes an immediate visual statement, without the softness of sky blue or the darkness of navy. Code 354 in the Porsche records positions it in the special-order palette alongside other vivid period colors, and ten documented community photographs confirm its genuine use. With two documented community car examples, it remains among the rarer solid blues in the database.
