i went to my dealer today to look at some colors since it was a nice sunny 38* today. after seeing IBM on a malibu, i don't want it no more. beautiful color, but it's too dark for me. may as well get black (which i won't cause it's too much work to keep clean). RJT on the impala looks AMAZING!! instant love, but too bright & flashy for me to be driving a muscle car in. :( silver ice looks good, but plain. then there was the traverse in, you guessed it, CGM. wow. it don't show as much dirt as a normal color that dark. (& this thing was starting to get dirty) the shady side looked like a nice charcoal, then when the sun hit it... Glorious Explosion of Awesomeness happened!! when you personally see that silvery-blue shine it gives off, all you can do is smile. since the white cars look too flat & red, yeller, & IOM are out of the question for radar-attention-begging purposes, that just leaves aqua to see (the paint sample in the book looked promising, but i need it on a car). it' will take a lot to beat CGM though.



& spike - you switched the description. great visual with bad music
