Looks to me like DB199 (the normal gray-blue metallic) over mushroom.

Not super common (most came with gray or black leather) but not uncommon -- 76 of these (199/mushroom) were brought into the US, out of a total of 380 US cars with the mushroom leather in all colors.

Cheers,

Could be either .. difficult to say because the photo is significantly under-exposed. However I was looking at the lower cladding on the bottom of the front door, and that seemed to be significantly lighter (gray) than the body color. If it was a 904 car the cladding would be darker.

All non metallic colours were special orders. So there is no "pair colour" as for other metallic paints, so it could be ordered in 7700 Altogrey or nearly any colour....
Anyway- VIN needed :D

PS Look at this terrible combo...also special order....( sorry for Offtop, we are in Interiour Topics here :D:D:D) Imperial red...
