yeah... i don't like it on the HHR either, but the camaro pics look better.

and yes, the corvettes have Jetstream Blue

You will for sure! BTW, after indecision on my own final choice, I have decided Victory Red with either CGM or Black Rally Stripes!!! (was down to choices of IBM, RJT, or VR), and leaning towards VR, but had concern about it being too bright.....then the lightbulb came on, and it all makes sense now! Add the stipes to break up the brightness somewhat! I was totally anti-striping til I saw the light. Yee Haw!!!

I would have ordered green if they had it.
Welcome to Camaro5! Great to hear you still have your 78'! I didn't know the official color name of mine, but just know its a dead ringer for the ABM.

Please post pic of your 78' here!

Well I think my order should be pulled this next round and if CGM is still on contraint I think ABM is my next color of choice! I have almost switched several times already, I am really tossed up between the both of them. Decisions.

I wouldn't just get a color because it comes out a little sooner, but it's your choice.

I wouldn't either. Like I said I am tossed between the 2 and if my order was pulled before the CGM constraint is lifted I would have a excuse. I ordered CGM, but since then the ABM has really grown on me. So now I really don't know which one I like better. I would not be dissappointed either way. Thats all! I understand your poiint though, and I have thought long about it, and I would be happy either way!

I hear ya, those two and white... I went with ABM, I've had two white cars in the past, always wanted a blue, but never had one, plus I am worried the CGM will show dirt and scratches too easy...

The white would look really good with black or blue stripes though... and it hardly ever looks dirty, but it's not due for a while now.

yo0o0o0o...i drove passed a chevy dealer ship and seen a abm hhr in the window...it looked rediculously sick! finally i seen it in person...imma go there later after work and take another look up close...but i think i may change my order from sim to abm...i feel sim just looks too dull and more like a light grey...also i think it makes the car look cheap...like plactic-ee...plus there is gonna be soooo many sim and black camaros around this would be a way to stand out...and blue is my favorite color!! my dad had a 69 camaro with white stripes and i always wanted one because of it...i think imma do it!!!
