Default Imperial blue, Performance blue and Ford racing blue.

Are they very similar shades or totally different ? Which one is the nicest blue out of the three would you say?

Imperial and Ford Racing Blue are one and the same I'm pretty sure. Performance Blue is totally different though.

Imperial blue on the Focus RS is a much richer and deeper shade of blue and looks much nicer than my Performance blue ST:
