as much as they say that the blue cars won't sell... still have to wonder why the medium blue showed up on one of the Synergy show cars...

Other than that, should probably look at other colors that are available on the Regal, since it is built on the same line. Not sure if it uses the same paint line, but I think it may.
I'd venture to guess that the new carbon flash metallic will slot in instead of the synergy green.

... possible regal color pull-overs - majestic blue metallic, granite grey metallic...

Here's a crystal red CTSV wagon with black wheels (look alot like SSX). Black wheels don't look too bad with the crystal red. Hmmmmm......

BTW, GM is working on a replacement for CGM which is "richer" per fbodfather over on the main forum.

I like bright blues also. I had a Dodge Avenger I bought new I think in 96. It was called prism blue. Damn I loved that color. When the sun hit it it had a red tint to it and when cloudy it had a light purple cast to it but mostly was a bright blue. I saw the same color a about four years ago at a GM car dealership (can't remember what model it was, it was four door and you could get it two door like a little panel vehicle that you could put stuff in the back) with a different paint name. But it was the exact same color. I almost bought the damn little thing just because I liked that color so much.

What was the color on the 2 year ago SEMA Camaro, Dusk Blue? That was very classy.

A new color from Kia called Platinum Graphite looks great. Something like this would look good on the ZL1.

Really, THANK YOU for the info. Richer to me means more perceived depth. With an improved CGM, I am a happy guy.

I will now do the Dance of Joy.

Oh, good call! I completely forgot about that car. IMO the dusk color would make an awesome CGM or IBM replacement for those that like the stealthy look.

I'd order this color with the quickness if it was made available.

If we offered 50 colors -- there would still be those who were not happy with the selection.

We try our best.

I agree, it's similar to Supersonic Blue in that regard. It looks to be at least a couple shades darker though.
