i am trying to find out the name of a certain MS3 color that i have seen a few times on the road. the color could be described as a metallic teal-navy color, and almost seems to change in the light. i do not think this color is custom, i have seen it on the internet once or twice, but is not a color currently used in production. in addition, i know it is not the 'winning blue' color

Cosmic Blue (the first pic) was avail in '07-'08. Metro Grey (the second pic) is avail in '08.5-'09. So if it's an '07, it's definitely Cosmic Blue.

They made that color you speak of on mazda 3's, but not on the speed version.

If it's phantom blue, it's not a mazdaspeed3. Cosmic blue (kind of a muted, slate-blue) is the only blue color ever offered on the speed3.

I think it'd look sexy in MS3 form.

yeah the regulsr 3 hatchback has some pretty sweet colors! We kidn of got jipped.

I like the phantom blue, the MPS blue (in australia and europe) and the regular 3 also has a deep DARK blue color that almost looks black but chrome dark blue in the day (a bitchin color!)

I personally love blue it's my favorite color and I wish they had it for us with the MS3, that would have been my color choice. My last 3 cars were all blue, its much easier to keep clean than black

What's the blue that's available in Like Australia or something? It's a real bright blue. I think someone on here named Magoo has it.

I like the phantom blue, just not on the 3. To me, it's kinda an updated montego blue, which was a dead sexy color on the rx-7 and miata.
