2011 Camaro to come in HYDRO BLUE & OLYMPIC WHITE - Page 4 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I remember guessing a while back about something like IROC blue. Royal Medium Metallic Blue I think it was called.

the PONTIAC looks like a friggin modified SMART CAR!!

RLHMARINES · 11-17-2009, 03:22 AM

I think it's because of the multiple car lines at the oshawa plant and the new colors might be shared with the other product line might be the reason for this come next fall.
JMHO, if the info turns out to be true.

RLHMARINES · 11-17-2009, 03:25 AM

I think I remember that's the reason why white was delayed from the start of production.

CynAgain · 11-17-2009, 04:14 AM

I like them both

come to think of it... I like them all!

2010 SSRS · 11-17-2009, 06:33 AM

Is synergy Green still going to be one of the new colors?

*Mindz* · 11-17-2009, 06:57 AM

Summit white is Olympic white. Someone posted dupont color codes for people in case they wanted to buy touch up paint. Summit white = olympic white. The hydro blue is a different color altogether though.

Not feeling it seeming GM axed ABM because of sales figures I don't see how this shade of blue will do any better. It seems Blue on the Camaro is not popular I was hoping that they might opt for Berlin Blue (replace IBM) as a new color for 2011 then again we do not know until GM released 2011 info.

The big problem with ABM, and the reason why I've decided that I don't want it, is that there is too much green in the color. I like the HBM better, but it's still too light. Why the hell can't GM release a solid, rich, metallic blue paint that isn't Tar Heel blue or so dark it might as well be black?

Hydro blue looks awesome!!! No offense to any who love aqua blue, it just didn't ring my bell. Hydro blue looks like what I had hoped aqua blue would be.

And dang it, that Solstice coupe looks incredible.

Just wanted to say that the Hydro Blue Metallic looks amazing in person......

I was going by the pics in the sun. Lemans Blue is darker in the shade, but really pops in the sun. Here's my '68:

Exactly why i will have to seriously consider ordering a HBM Camaro next fall if the wife likes it as much as i think she will...It reminds me of the original Lemans Blue color which i was hoping they would bring that back, or the old emerald green color. But we will have to wait and see what actually happens on color releases.

Stryker Blue Metallic would be great
