What do you guys think? I am on the fence between Imperial and Aqua blue.

Well, I already posted my ideas about ABM, I ordered it with no reservations. I customized an 82 Chevy Stepside and painted it ABM ....... not once ever did I get sissy comments about the truck, matter of fact the truck looked very sporty and immaculate. Come on, some are ordering white, yellow, orange !

I think that it's a great color. Saying that a bright blue is feminine would be the same as saying that a bright classic like Hugger Orange or Rally Green is feminine. While this color may happen to appeal to more women than certain other colors—a fact that would need rigorous polling to prove, and no such polling has been done—it isn't necessarily a feminine color.

It is your car. Love it the way you love it.

maybe you should make a poll ?

but i think it's a matter of preference really

I had my two daughters (5 and 7) pick their favorite color for the Camaro... it was the Aqua blue. Enough said...

blur is totally right on this. its your car pick the color YOU want. dont worry about what anyone else thinks. most interestingly when i ask my female friends (including my mom) what color I should get they like they ALL say CGM (or in some cases black), does that mean CGM (or black) is a girly color... H*LL NO! it just means they like the color. that said im going with CGM because I like it, not because anyone else likes it.

i definitely would not consider ABM a girly color. i wouldn't be caught dead buying a 'girly-looking' vehicle & ABM is my #2 color choice!

if you like it & think it looks good, you should get it with no hesitation!

I got a few comments like this also. But take a look at the older Camaros, and a lot of them were a very ABM-like color.

In person, the color doesn't look that girly at all. I saw it on the HHR.

haha, that's funny... my mom and my sister both liked CGM the best. My dad chose RJT. But for me... ABM without a doubt

Is ABM too girly? I don't think so. I was just thinkin if they made a pink one, THAT would be girly!

Actually I had a friend who had a 3rd Gen Camaro in hot pink, and it didn't make him girly.. therefore blue can't make a guy girly at all.. coming from a girl.
