It also seems to me that a Special Edition should have unique color

I understand wanting certain colors, I absolutely wanted my Camaro to be Hugger Orange!
Maybe Chevy will see there way to release another similar blue down the road.

Yea but the special color associated with the SEMA hot wheels Camaro is that awesome antifreeze green color? Why didn't they use a variation of that?

A resounding yes! 2SS/RS 1LE FTW!

Just curious.

I like this color, too! Just don't think I'd buy it (or have bought it, if it were offered).

Needs all the goodies that last years SEMA Hot Wheels has IMO. Other than that it looks great.

Pyro!



I wish I could have had this color on my 1LE! It's the closest I've seen to my favorite color: 1969 Lemans Blue (see the 69 Camaro in my garage.)

Beautiful color. Love the idea. I doubt the 1LE will be available on the Hot Wheels though. Conflicting stripes and wheels etc. At some point I'm sure they'll open the color up to all models. Assuming there's enough demand. (which I'm sure there will be.)

Have never seen that color in person but every pic I've seen is amazing. I don't think I could say Kinetic Blue trumps Lemans blue, but it's close enough for me.

Yes if I could order one now in a 2ss non Hotwheels, I would be in

If I was to get this it would sit in a garage. Only driven every once and a while.

Mine would have to be a SS 1LE. Yea a HotWheels model is interesting, but no way would I actually own it. Especially with the price tag.

Love the color!!!!!!!!

I thought this part from the original post was pretty interesting:

But the concept's metallic green finish wasn't production viable. Ultimately, designers chose medium blue, similar to a spectraflame blue used on Hot Wheels toy cars in the 1960s and to an aqua blue exterior paint Chevy receives many requests to bring back into production, Fitzpatrick said.

I'm guessing this is the same blue that made an appearance not long ago on the pace car that we thought was Aqua Blue, but turns out it wasn't. Just a very similar blue, without the Aqua....which is what most people would prefer.

I think this is the medium blue that would sell well. The Aqua blue didn't because it looked horrible online and some people just don't like the "greenish" tint on cloudy days. I fall a little into that category, but to this day I still get compliments on the color...its amazing and I would never get rid of the car because ABM makes it one of the more unique Camaros on the road. I've grown even more fond of the color since I bought it back in 2009 and I love it....in the sun its just spectacular. (sorry, I am a bit bias as well!)

But in a perfect world, if they had offered this metallic blue which looks like ABM does in the sun and still keeps more of a blue tint in the shade, versus Aqua Blue....I'd have gone with this.

I will admit that if this color is released it will likely make my car seem less unique which would suck lol.
