Blue seems to be selling well on the C7 vette.... I've seen more blue ones than red.

Build it and they will come..........................................exce pt in blue.

Blue just hasn't sold well. If it did, you would have seen more blue Camaros.

GM is in business to make money, not blue cars.

No good blues either gray blue or bright blue. But I don't think nice calm blue hues are for fast cars. Just hues that make an impact.

That 90's blue metallic wouldn't be bad on the 5th gen. Certainly no more/less offensive than orange. I think that 90's blue looks pretty close to Aqua Blue Metallic.

How much can it possibly cost to change to a paint color like blue in the paint process even if the demand for something like ABM was low?

I can't comment on a specific price but what we have been told by people in the know is that the cost is pretty darn hefty.....

Chevrolet should just make Kinetic Blue an official color as long as Hot Wheels is ok with it
