ABM is a "richer" looking blue than Kinetic Blue. Kinetic has more metallic flakes in it. I honestly expected to like it better than ABM, and it IS a nice color....but when you see it in person I gotta say I definitely like Aqua Blue better.

I also thought I would like the KBM on the Hot Wheel edition until I saw it in person. It is not a bad color but it seems so flat compared to ABM. It just had no pop to it like ours does. Not to mention the horrible stickers (front bumper, sides, hood) all over the Hot Wheel edition makes it look cheap.

There is an ABM Camaro sitting on a used car lot off the highway on my way home from work, I don't know if it's a V6 or V8 I didn't get a real good look at it going down the highway at 75mph.. LOL!!
I might stop by and look at it, as it is only the second one I have seen with my own eyes..

I'm a new owner of an AMB. Bought it in February. It had 4100 miles. Now has 6800. There's a lot more work i want to do with it. I wanted the ABM since the first time I saw one. I've only seen 2 or 3 before this one. Now i see them everywhere haha.
A lot of people like the hot wheels blue more the ABM. Even my wife. I don't think so! I like it, but love the ABM. |

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same. Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different. I can't wait for my next Track fix.

The child safty seat tie down loops. Used a u clamp with locking pin. Blackhawk6 installed a set last year & I just followed his lead. Will feel much safer at next track day.

Hello ABM Cousins!
2013 Jet Stream Blue Camaro 2ss
was born Blue Ray Metallic, but shed her skin for JSB. many, many people keep asking GM for more true Bright Blues..... Even more, seem to request a love for JSB, being a true blue, with no green hues. JSB and ABM are close cousins. For all those wondering what JSB would look like on a 5th gen Camaro, here it is! JSB looked great on a corvette. But I feel since the Camaro has so many more hard cuts, and sharp angles, it should look, and show off these wonderful highlights. |

JSB camaro So. Cal edition
Please note, in direct sun, the JSB's tri layered paint, called Artic Fire ( PPG), or from GM, ( tinted clearcoat ) almost over powers todays digital cameras on board sensors. Their are no aqua artifacts in real life to this paint, but thru a digital conversion, one can see some aqua in these digital shots.
I call it, not artic fire, but "Blue Fire". Its not a red hot fire, but as in the artic, a Blue, hot cold fire....if that makes any sense! hahaha anyways...long live the Bright Blues! |
