I noticed that there was one out on the lot (next to a black one for comparison) in bucklwi1's pictures from his trip to Oshawa.

That color is Great. Best pics I have seen.
Are those the 21's on it?
And I do not believe it has ground effects. I have those on mine.
I am at 3000, and been there for a while.

:word: I love how it looks in the Motor Trend video, really shows off the range of the color. Thought it was ABM for a second because of the brightness and hint of green in direct sunlight. Man this color is sic!

edit: Not IBM in the video but still a good looking color nonetheless

That is ABM in the Motor Trend video. That green hue gives it away. The IBM is much darker.

i ordered a ibm with white rally stripes and i am glad i did i think with the white stripes its gonna give it a nice contrast. this car rocks in the sun.

The MS wheels look alot darker in these pics. I want to paint the spokes of my wheels Black, that would look nice

Well as someone who works in the plant i can tell you the IBM with the Rally Stripes is my # 1 pick . It is a popular choice amongst my fellow workers , so when its my time to order , IBM will be my retirement gift to myself. Cheers

I stand corrected. That was my first thought but I figured it was too dark for ABM and since they had pics of IBM in the actual article I figured that it was. My bad. Regardless, I'm stoked about my IBM SS and can't wait till it gets here.

Ok this might be a stupid question and im not sure if its been answered yet but,
is IBM the same color as the Navy Blue Metallic (NBM) for the 00-02 4th gen camaros? Or is IBM closer to the LeMans Blue Metallic of the 06-07 C6 vettes?

Its hard to tell in all the different pictures for the IBM color. i have a NBM 02' SS and the IBM color comes really really close to my NBM. But I also really like the LeMans Blue they had for the 06-07 C6 vettes too.

So has anyone seen the IBM in person and could tell me which color it comes close too? Thanks.

Yeah, I figured they'd have video since they had still photos of the IBM. I was a bit disappointed, cause I thought you found some good video of the IBM!

But I'm with you all the way! It's so close I can almost hear 426 HP revving under my right foot! Can't wait to see pics, whichever of us gets his first! :thumbup:

2LT RS
 
:happyanim:Just changed my order to a 2LT Imperial Blue Metallic with the RS package!:happyanim: I feel this looks a lot meaner then the Victory Red non RS I ordered.

SSmoke 04-04-2009 07:42 PM

welcome to the dark side! I changed mine from CGM a few weeks back...this color will look amazing on this car.
