Blue Ray/Night Race Blue
Here it is on a 2013 Corvette. If the ZL1 gets this colour, I may have to rethink my ashen grey choice.

I'm sorry but I think it should be called mist grey or something like that...not some type of blue. Under certain light the blue comes out (some)...otherwise its a dark bluish grey.
Not saying I think the color is horrible, but the blue that most were hoping for....it is not. Maybe more pictures will change my mind a tad.

If I lined up IBM, ABM, and that new blue..... I'd be choosing between IBM and ABM as my favorite.
That's about as positive as I can put it. Not a fan of dulling down and taking all the pop out of IBM and calling it the new blue. They did the same thing to CGM, which had awesome sunlight pop to it - turned it to ash. What's next, remove all the awesomeness from IOM and call it flat squash metallic? |

*yawn* It reminds me of my 2000 BMW... Steel Blue is what they called it. Looks like just another shade of gray to me. How many does Camaro have now? Six? Black, white, AGM, CFM, SIM, now this one? Oh, and let's not forget three shades of red, and a yellow.
Come on, GM.

Don't know what to make of it. I kind of like it but it strays away from the color blue a bit much for my taste.
GM used to be good with navy blue in the past. Seems that they've struggled with this color IMO for awhile.

The funny thing about color's when I first started lookingat getting a 5th gen Camaro and saw the green for the first time I said to myself what an ugly color. But over the past year or so that color has really grown on me.
In fact if that color was available along with the ABM I consider them both. I have not seen this new blue yet but I would reserve comments till I did.
