Received these pics from my local dealer. He asked his friend to take them at the dealership in Daytona.

This is CGM...

rmyers · 02-11-2009, 08:26 PM

I really like that color.

I agree...this is the CGM I got at the motor trend show. These were indoor too so you can compare

Now that Camaro is the sweetest pace car ever! Hot graphics too.

eggydoo · 02-12-2009, 04:20 PM

The gray looks less sparkly....maybe its not really CGM.

Cool pic's

tjbusa · 02-12-2009, 04:47 PM

Looks kinda blue grey ( CGM ) to me.

Thanks for posting your pics....

I agree, looks like CGM to me. The metallic looking less sparkly might just be the camera quality.

My thoughts on the issue of CGM on the Pace car.

Now, I've seen CGM a couple different times on a ZR1 and other Vettes. much like the pics you've seen here CGM has a blue metalic flake in it that you can easily see when you look at the paint up close.

After spending a bunch of time looking at both jr's car and the pace car, I've decided they are NOT Cyber Grey Metalic.

I'm sorry I didn't have my camera with me today to take a pic of it. But I'm 99% positive based on what I've seen they are not CGM.

Now just so you know, Jr's car is under the tent and not in direct sunlight. While the Pace car is under the sun. Today was a bright sunny day with plenty of direct light to look for the blue hue/pearl effect. But it was not to be seen. I looked up close, nose inches from both cars, and I backed away looking at different angles and surfaces to try and see it. It ain't there.

I'm not saying that GM isn't going to deliver the CGM that we've seen on the ZR1, I'm just saying this grey on the two daytona cars is not the same.

Again I'm sorry I don't have pics. My wife has the camera today... Silly mother in law...

So......

if you look at this pic you see the blue metal flake in the CGM on the ZR1. That blue flake is not there on either Jr's car or the Pace Car.
