I love the Supersonic Blue Metallic and would consider having mine painted at the dealer upon delivery. I also saw a gold one on a tuner site that looked great.

Supersonic blue is a terrible color. It looks awful in person. Worst color I've seen on a Corvette in a long time.

They need another dark color though. Both of the discontinued colors are dark so if anyone wants a dark color Camaro for '12, they're going to have to get black or a 45th ann. edition.

Maybe storm gray since the full size trucks and suv's use that. It might actually be cyber gray under a different name though. Looks very close IMO. If so, it would be discontinued as well.

Reminder, there are 2 dark colors as you mentioned but no blue whatsoever...

I don't know, I think I change my mind about SBM. I like it, but it's too dull for my eye. I want a blue that's going to flop as the light changes across the car, and I just don't think that color has the depth I'm looking for. I really like Navy Blue Metallic from the 4th Gen, but think Admiral Blue is a blue I could easily live with. I like a good amount of red in my blue, and this really pops in my eyes. There are some similar blues from Acura and Ford, but I want to stick with GM

SKIP THE JUJYFRUITS COLORS PLEASE!!!!

It seems to me the current colors are about as creative as the colors that come in JUJYFRUITS.

We really need some toned down colors such as the Supersonic Blue mentioned in this thread or other "soft" colors that are not so BOLD AND IN YOUR FACE.......... I know, I know, its "all in the eye of the beholder", but comon don't you guys agree some softer metallics (Silver Beige??) would be nice???????


The colors seem to be the same as those of the JUJYFRUIT crowd.. (though I still eat them admittedly)...

Speaking of Blues!

It also looks great with the black fixtures on the car.

The only two blues that GM makes that I am aware of that does that is the
Mystic Teal Poly that I posted above. It changes in light from green to blue, then back to green. If you catch it just right at night with lights on it takes a step further. It changes purple!

Bermuda Blue in the second set of photos is a recent GM color for the Tahoe and Escalade. I think that particular color was available from 07 and maybe 08. Bermuda Blue looks dark blue if there is little light on it. BUT, in the sunlight it will turn almost a teal green color. In bright sunlight the color is dazzling.
Very pretty color. The 79 trans am had a dark blue metallic color on it, and it was called Nocturne blue. I had one of those trans am's but back then did not know it was a rare color either. It turns green as well in the sunlight.
