Photos - Ocean Blue 70D

[brucet999]

I'm curious about the name. What ocean looks that blue?

Perhaps way underwater?

South China Sea on a sunny midday. I remember it vividly from 40+ years ago and with the bonus of flying fish launching themselves out of the faces of 8-foot waves.

Thank you for posting your fine pictures. That blue looks wonderful in the diffuse light from sun behind clouds; probably lighter and more brilliant in full sun.

. . I was hoping for a burnt orange new color myself!

That may have to wait until Tesla can open stores in Texas.

I was at the Fremont factory for a tour and they had just gotten their ocean blue 70D moments before I arrived at the supercharger. Just had to share

Thank you for sharing those great pics. Now we have seen it in diffuse sun and full sun. Beautiful!

Stopped at the Decatur (Atlanta) store to supercharge each way of a weekend trip and got back to back pics of the blues in the sun and in the rain. More in the album here:

This a fantastic shot and the new blue looks gorgeous to me!

Which is which?

Is the right the new Blue color or the left?

The one on the right is a 70D with the "new" blue. The one on the left is a S85 (possibly CPO, not sure) with the traditional dark blue.

Yes, the new blue is clearly blue in most lighting conditions. The old blue looked like black to me in low light.

I prefer the old dark blue.

I saw the new blue at the Vancouver Service Center a few weeks ago. The car was newly off the transporter, and still had some of the white plastic wrap on it, but I got a flavour. The day was overcast, and I was surprised how dark the colour looked, but clearly in bright sun it is much brighter than the old blue. Like the MC red, the new blue is a very "active" colour— the look changes a great deal in varying light.

Thanks for posting, Zarwin. I like both the old and new blue, but it's great to see them side by side.

Also, the Titanium Metallic in the background of a couple shots is awesome. Especially in person.

Added two more photos to the album that have Titanium Metallic in them. There were several on the lot/behind the building.

I really love the new blue. That 70D you showed is pretty much what I would like to get when I can afford a Model S: 70D, Deep Blue Metallic, standard 19s, gray leather, pano roof.

It really looks nice.

Zarwin, awesome pix. This really shows how beautiful the new blue is in comparison to the old.

I really like Vger's comment that the blue is an "active" color like the MC red. So stoked about my new blue car! 90 days and counting . . .

Finding a used Blue 85 with rear facing seats has proven to be a challenge.

 

[Cyclone]

Pictures don't do this car justice. It looks absolutely gorgeous in person! Some lucky person in the greater Charlotte area is about to become a proud owner!

 

[chriSharek]

Cyclone, thanks for that. It looks really good right up next to that MC red. Now, that gray one is not your color, is it?

 

[Cyclone]

Negative. My Dolphin Gray is a little lighter than the Steel Gray/Midnight Silver. Here is pic with those two side by side.
