You can't really appreciate the color and depth of stuff you look at on the internet unless the person who took the photo has color calibrated their camera, their computer screen and their printer... And even if they've done all that, it can still look crap on your computer screen or when you print it out because you haven't color calibrated your gear...

Color calibration is complex and time consuming task so most don't bother. And quality computer screens with a delta-e of less than 2 use to be rather expensive (but i haven't checked current quality screen prices so maybe it aint as bad these days)...

Best is to go to the paint shops where you will buy your paint and ask him where he has sold that color. Maybe he can put you in touch with a spray shop and/or vehicle owner who has used hat color and you may then be able to see it in the flesh, in daylight, at dusk... Just stay off the grog so your eyes are correctly calibrated :p
