But how different is it from Monte Carlo blue? And what connection does Honda have to Long Beach? Or Monte Carlo, for that matter?

That is a great color. Do you have any more pics in different better lighting?

I can't tell the difference, in fact, I thought you already posted this pic.

Thanks, Rayman.

That color is one of the nicest blues I have seen. I am going to see what it would cost to get that color paint for my BMW.

I think that color is my favorite on the NSX (though i have never seen any blue NSX's in person) I'm not sure, but i think that the Long Beach Blue Pearl has just a small touch of metallic in it, where the others don't. I could be wrong though.

One of F1's greatest qualifying laps was at Monte Carlo by Ayton Senna in a Honda-powered McLaren in 1991.

Go to the video "Senna's pole position lap in Monaco" to see the lap.

Long Beach is a little odd because F1 left it before Honda entered F1. Still, it's not as bad as Pontiac putting "Le Mans" on what was just a Suzuki Swift (or whatever car it was that they rebadged)
