If "Athens Blue" is the color of the Greek flag, then no it's much lighter.

Athens Blue is what they call the G35 blue.

Not quite sure if they're different, but I'm guessing that DB is a little bit brighter.

The blue on 350's is a darker shade than the blue on a G35.

Daytona Blue is paint code B17.
Caribbean Blue is B16.
Twilight Blue is BW5.
Never heard of Athens Blue.

I'm not sure if this link will work, but it's on the Infiniti website.

Huh, weird; looks like they changed colors for '06. At any rate, no, that's not the same as Daytona Blue; DB is a little flamboyant for an Infiniti, IMO.

Athens Blue
Thanks. Athens Blue is a 2006 color. Sorry but I have no paint codes for 2006.
