Aqua Blue Metallic Camaro @ Disneyworld Orlando this week! (PHOTOS) - Page 8 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Due to the harsh lights in the display area, it was hard to tell if there was any hint of green tint or any other tint. Because this was a pre-production model, some pieces on the car did not match color but I assume they'll fix that as they gear up for real production! This blue could be a close match to the Jetstream blue used on the Corvette, have to see it outside in the sun & shade to be sure! I think the blue will be a hit once you see it in real everyday life!

^^when i saw Aqua Blue on the HHR, Jetstream ain't what came to mind. it's a bit more teal-ish.

Aqua Blue (not in direct light)

Jetstream Blue

I really think lighting has everything to do with it, inside and outside. As you can tell by the photos I took, the lights are too bright and didn't really give the car a chance to show it's true colors! In this particular case, there was no teal-ish look but you might be right if it's the same color being used on the HHR.

Very cool thanks for hooking us up.

Much appreciated.

Very nice 7T8Z..appreciate them, BTW, is that a pencil in the antenna in your photo of the rear in post 95? lol

These last pictures convinced me that that is my next car

Only things I would change is to add a Blade type Spoiler and to have Chrome Trim Rings on the Wheels with Chrome Lug Nuts. Other than that I would say it was just what I like!

Great Pictures!!!

P.S.
I wonder how hard it would be to replace the LS Fog light blanks with real fog Lights...

Primus · 12-29-2008, 11:39 AM

Shouldn't be hard at all. People do this all the time.

Kamaro223 · 12-29-2008, 12:38 PM

Wow, those wheels look worse than I thought they would

I really think GM is redefining what "base" model means with this car. You can buy that car for less than $23k. 300hp, 27mpg, looks to die for, killer exhaust sound and the latest engineering available.

And 1940's era wheels?

I like the steel wheels, but I'm an unabashed fan of retro touches and I don't dig on wagon wheels.

what i meant was that it's so much better than these

at least these look good enough to not need hubcaps. i like the beauty rings because they keep the wheels from just looking like cheap, plain crap
