I too am biased. Garnet red is beautiful in the sunlight.

The blue is nice but that red just looks amazing. I would get the Garnet red

Yes.

I say if you want to be seen and be flashy get the blue. If you want to have a more subtle look yet carry a presence then the red. I originally wanted the red but the blue stole my eye and was only color they had available at the time without ordering.

Camaro's look amazing in any color as you simply can't pick a bad color, but in my opinion if you want to be flashy and really be seen the top head tuners would be red hot..bright yellow..Hyper Blue...orange crush...and last years krypton green not necessarily in that order! Let's wait and see what the refresh will bring as more new colors are on the way!

Hyper Blue gets my vote! Picked up mine 6-7-2018, has the ceramic white interior.

I love my HBM but if I would have bought it new I would have went with Garnet Red which is much like the Red Jew Tintcoat I had on my 2011 and I loved that color!

sexy HBM Camaros

Tough call I seen a blue in person almost bought that one 1st but dealer wouldn’t come down on the price enough. Both are a good pick but I gotta pick hot wheels orange.

Well I finally made my decision.. I pulled the trigger on another Hyper Blue Metallic Vert on July 2nd. It was a tough choice but what finally made up my mind was that garnet red tintcoat is returning for the 19 refresh while Hyper Blue has more than likely seen its last paint gun and will be replaced by riverside blue Metallic a similar but less striking tint coat. It seems none of the paint choices offered on the refreshed 19 to this point are punchy colors. Since this may have been my last chance to buy a new HBM Vert I pulled the trigger. Thanks so much for all your responses. The final tally was right about even... both are great choices!
