I am partial to IOM but the first yellow is beautiful as is the blues.

But since few people were willing to take a risk on something as Major as the color of their new car, it never had a chance to grow in popularity. I still think it is my favorite 5th gen color so far.
That has been my contention all along. ABM never had a chance because just as they were starting to hit the streets, GM pulled the plug. Sharing paint line with the Impala was also a problem. Limits number of more "vivid" colors available for Camaro exclusively (ie ABM, Synergy Green, yellow), as most colors are shared by both cars...hence the more conservative IBM, shared by both. ABM never did well on Impala, but most certainly would have done very well on Camaro.

I just saw a 2006 Chevy SSR that was painted Pacific Blue and it is a gorgeous deep true blue color that would look fantastic on the ZL1. It is the same color as the blue in my avatar.
