89 Mugello Blue Metallic is a deep, saturated dark blue metallic named after the famous Italian racing circuit north of Florence. At #334779 it reads as a rich, confident dark blue that is noticeably more saturated than the darkest midnight blues — the Mugello circuit's association with intensity and speed is reflected in the color's character. Originating from the VAG Group shared palette, it is available on Porsche exclusively through PTS. Its motorsport-inspired name and Italian heritage give it a particularly appropriate character for Porsche's performance models.
