Hello hello. Seeking out your eyes and feedback to help me look for a color chip that is close to matching R0 G0 G255 blue, also known as "Pure Blue". I continue from this thread,
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/help-in-matching-a-livery-color.327261/#post-10643385
I am looking for it to be exclusively a solid color. For the time being, I am not interested in metallic or pearl or any other variant texture. Although if you think there is a textured blue that is close to solid, I'd definately also appreciate taking a look at it. But for the meanwhile, a solid "Pure Blue" is what my heart desires.
These are blues that I found to be possible candidates the pure blue I seek, but I would appreciate the feedback as well. These are colors I have for candidacy, and displayed in one of my signature vehicles from my Scuderia

This was the original color I had thought was the closest to pure blue (Capri Blue, from the Ford Kia) but as others have made me realize, it is a blue that is thrown more towards violet. A gorgeous color, stands out really well on the grid, but alas, not what I am looking for, not my ideal blue anyways.

Blue Santorin. Nice color, but it looks a bit "Grape Blue" and as blueish as I'd like it to be.

Champion Blue (from Nissan). A little more closer to the blue that I am thinking off, but still has that "Grape Blue" feel to it. The blue is a tad softer than I prefer.

French Blue. It is getting a little closer the pure blue I am looking for, somewhat similar to Champion Blue. The blue still looks a bit soft.

French Racing Blue. At first I thought my eyes deceived me (Being a tad colorblind between blues and purple shades, it has made distrust my own perception), after all, this blue look quite blueish, but was a bit disappointed to see how bright it is.

Lance Blue. Also a bit disappointed, aside from being brighter than I'd prefer, it looked liked the blue on this one looked more moderate and softer than I like.

Mariner Blue (from Mazda). One of the first blues I used when I began racing in GT5 days. It was nice, but again, it has that "Grape" feel to it. Not blue enough, heheh.

Phoenix Blue. Now this one was looking promising, a somewhat intense blue, but a bit bright for my taste.

Racing Blue. Somewhat "Grapish" but It appears that this one actually has the brightness that I am looking for (Not dark nor bright), and definitely appears close the "Pure Blue" I absolutely adore.

Reflex Blue (from Caterham). Now THIS one is starting to come closer to that "Pure Blue" ideal. Very blueish, doesn't seem to be closer to other colors. Also very mid mid, although I can't help but feel it is edges towards a dark tone.

Sonic Blue Clearcoat. Also a very promising blue, it appears very very blue, and unlike the Reflex blue, it appears very "Mid" neither bright nor dark.
Of the ones I listed above, which one do you think comes closest to the "Pure Blue" color of R0 G0 B255 characteristic? Or Can you think of another blue that is far far closer than the ones I already listed?
