Generally Gemini is a bit deeper hue than Alaska Blue, and applied to earlier MYs (as you can see for the colors section at the 914 info link at the top of the page here). I'm thinking your pic is Alaska - given the rear bumper tits denoting a 74 MY when Alaska was an available color choice - at extra cost - so it should also show under options on the COA & window sticker/dealer BoS/invoice.

However, the only sure way to tell for sure is to look at the color code on the Karman Plate's bottom box in the LF door jamb - including if a color is a non-original respray.

Note that differing cameras, lighting, repaints vs. original & many other factors can make a pic of any color look different.

It is Alaska blue. But be careful, that picture is deceiving!
