Agree...even if it isn't ABM...it doesn't matter...its as close to ABM you can get and it it doesn't have the 'teal' look that makes it even better.

Blue Topaz looks nothing like this...not even close.

At any rate, now this is SWEET shade of blue, make this color available ASAP.
I think they should make this color available....even though it will make my ABM seem less rare if there are 2013+ models running around with basically the same color .... I will admit..I like the exclusiveness of my ABM

I agree...could just be the old test mule, but if it REALLY is not ABM then it must not be one of the old test mules.

The lighter the color the less this door to 1/4 mismatch shows.
A better blue would be the 60's Chev Silver Blue imo.
ehhh, but you guys are nuts. First off, the color matches perfectly across the car....there used to be debates about this early on when some cars seems to have a different hue from the metal to plastic parts, but trust me when i say ABM matches perfectly everywhere.

Secondly, one of the top reasons ABM is so loved is because of its metallic nature which makes it pop under the right lighting. It enables you to easily see the different angles of the car, and in my opinion really appreciate the design of the car. I have nothing against the other colors, but some of them just don't show off the Camaro curves quite like the metallics do.
