About Verde Tenue
A pale, greyed metallic green — "tenue" means faint — from the Glasurit era: FER 604/C, introduced in 1983 alongside Verde Chiaro (602/C) and Verde Scuro (603/C), and listed in the Testarossa exterior palette as Verde Tenue Metallizzato; the factory sticker reads VERDE TENUE METALLICA FER 604/C, and refinish catalogues carry it as Verde Tenue Metallic 604 for 1984–1995 cars. A 2004 FerrariChat search for a 328 in this color found none; it was not a standard 328 color, though a 1985 Glasurit color card carries it, so it would have been a special order. No color chip has been published and no car with a documented sticker or build sheet has surfaced, so this value is a low-confidence photo estimate: the leading photograph, a 512 TR pinned as Verde Tenue, catches the sky and reads from #818f80 on the shaded roof to #a5c8c2 on the sunlit bumper; the paint supplier's Mondial Cabriolet, offered under code 604, reads #9ca89e on the bonnet and a more olive #8b9175 on the door. The sampled value sits between them. Verde Chiaro (602/C) is the neighbouring lighter yellow-green on this site.
