ABM pics do no justice!

I stopped today again for the third time in a month to look at the trucks I know of in ABM....... I gotta tell ya that the true color of ABM "does not" show well on our displays!! It was slightly overcast with medium sunlight getting at the paint....... friekin gorgeous!! This blue is made for the 2010 camaro SS !! I am not the least bit sorry I ordered my 2SS in ABM and stuck with it until my order went live the other day (event 3000)! We will be extremely pleased wiht ABM !

Going to look at the Colorado during the day tomorrow. If I think it'd be worth it, I may drive back up there tomorrow evening around sunset, too.

Sorry to mess around with your picture, but through tweaking it, I think that, even if it looks like this in the late afternoon, I think it's still tolerable and definitely still sexy. Looks like the lines make the car more than the color here...
I think you are looking at the wrong color, not sure what your referencing but that is not even close.

Nope, sorry. I saw the color with my own two eyes in both daylight and nearing sunset. It's definitely Aqua Blue Metallic. I may head back up there in a few minutes to see if I see the same thing again. Might have just been specific lighting conditions, but I'd still like to know.

The Colorado looked like most of the other Aqua Blue photos I've seen during the day.

I love it how people here automatically assume you're wrong or that you don't know what you're talking about if they don't agree with your opinion.

I agree that the green is there but it is so darn subtle.....I had to look for it .... ! It seems that when the light shines into the AMB at a small angle it throws a greeen hue.

Ya know what.....if for an hour in the evening my AMB 2SS wants to show of it's chameleon like ability then so be it. I certainly can take the dazzling blue being offered for the majority of it's life......

I still disagree that ABM is a teal or any type of blue green.......it is definately a striking blue !

That's how I feel right now, too. Especially after checking out the Colorado at about the same time today and seeing an entirely new hue. Winner for the most dynamic color on the 2010 Camaro.

I never said you don't know what you are talking or your wrong BUT you may be color blind if you think that mess you did in photoshop looks anything like the color. I have seen the color many times on my sisters HHR, in all kinds of light and I'm on color accurate RGB computer display propberly calibrated and what you did is teal not the ABM.

I did not disagree with your opinion just your skills in PS

You can't tell me that what I saw with my own two eyes and color matched in Photoshop is wrong. I don't care what monitor you're looking at or how calibrated it is. When I look at what I've done to the picture, it's what I saw the other evening. Moreover, my fiancee and I have seen the ABM Colorado multiple times now and she agrees that, at the proper time of day, it looks like what I photoshopped.

Telling me that I'm color blind = telling me that I don't know what I'm talking about.

I also don't care what you think or say you've seen on an HHR. Everyone sees things differently and I definitely saw turquoise on the Colorado this evening. I didn't say I had a problem with it, but it's what I saw and you can't factually tell me otherwise.

The ABM shows off a greenish turquoise in the sun. I like the color, but wish it was a little bit darker. IBM is too dark in my opinion. If picking out of the 2 colors, I would go with ABM.

The lighting drastically changes the color though. When it's not as sunny, it's a perfect blue that doesn't show much "green". In direct sun, the greenish tint shows
