The Impala deleted two blues from their 2014 lineup and added this color so your essientially driving the same color in the Chevy lineup.

Perhaps so, but why is GM messing around with "Dark Blues" if it has such low appeal? What happened to Kinetic Blue Metallic which was used on the 2013 Hot Wheels Edition?? Would it have been a better solution for the Camaro if Dark is NOT selling well!

Why is there no Med Green for the Camaro like on the Cruze??

Kinetic Blue is the perfect blue. Everyone loved the hotwheels edition, but nobody wanted to pay for it ( I wouldn't have wanted to)

Thank God I have my ABM, and it still turns heads and people ask me if its a new color. Nope...just old and rare.

I see blue Mustangs, and F150s all the time....especially the medium blue F150 (The Mustang hues are lighter or darker). So you can't tell me people aren't interested in blue. Look how many medium blue Corvettes are running around?

Why doesn't blue sell? It doesn't sell b/c its always in super dark or baby blue colors. Even ABM, as much as I love it, and how perfectly blue it is in the sun, has a teal green hue in the shade which some people don't like. I get that. Just offer a damn good medium blue with a metallic flake for the POP like Kinetic Blue and be done with it!

I would love to have an Aqua Blue Camaro! I searched for one and almost bought one about a year ago now, but it was not meant to be I guess, and it never happened. But I would love to see another color like Aqua Blue or Kinetic Blue. An Aqua Blue Camaro is still my dream car, with the two tone gray interior. Of course the SS as well.

This new blue though... It looks a bit better than Blue Ray Metallic but still too dark. We night a nice lighter/medium blue damn it! What's wrong with you Chevy/GM?

They should have made the hot wheels blue available. Not this bland color.

Ugh. So sick of the dark blues. I want a bright blue like Laguna Blue or Jetstream Blue. How many shades of dark blue must we endure before they get the hint and give us something bright again.

I saw one yesterday. It's one of my favorite colors on the Camaro that's not blue.
