Like the VO, It also changes in the light. I love it
Estoril Blue was created as a unique M colour. It is named after a racing circuit in Portugal. It is thought to be the colour of the early morning sky seen at Estoril.
As is Valencia (circuit in Spain) from the Orange.
Some believe it to be the colour shade that Motorsport had the most success with in the open racer days (a similar colour was used to paint the number on).
Altantis Blue, Monte Carlo Blue, Lemans Blue, and Interlagos Blue were also named after circuits.
You can go on and on with that list...

Sakhir Orange, Silverstone Metallic, Yas Marina Blue, Austin Yellow, Donington Grey, Dakar Yellow, Melbourne Red, Long Beach Blue, Singapore Gray....
