byb..... can you get some side shots of that?? I'm guessing those wheels are a little different (size wise) than the factory ones? hence the new tires?? I might have missed that thread. sorry if you have to repeat it.

Nevermind I just went the page before...

This color looks absolutely fantastic when not its not in the sun. With the very few pictures I have seen of this color in the sun, I have started to notice its gets very bright and changes to a washed out blue. With all my experience with European blues and now Laguna blue, I had always doubted the quality of this color from the very first time I laid my eyes on it. This also goes with Aqua blue from the fifth gen, and any mustang blue (blah). I really can't wait to see this color in person one day when I pull up next to one.

I'm not quite sure what's going on in the photo you provided, maybe the camera wasn't that good, but the sun normally just lights up right where it hits. I haven't seen it look like a washed out blue at all. I took these pics around lunchtime with the sun directly on it.

Just freaking gorgeous.

God, I really don't know which combo I want now. :(

I'm definitely getting the RS package, but I don't know if I should get the black wheels and/or black bowties now.

I even starting considering Summit White, because it looks amazing with the black bowties and black wheels. But I think I'll end up sticking with Hyper Blue since I've been longing for a medium blue Camaro ever since I had my ABM.

I'd say definitely get the black bowties. They look so good on any color, really. I especially like it on the hyper blue and white ones.

Black wheels...

I'm personally not a fan, as I think black really masks the details of the wheels, but it seems like an increasingly large number of people have been liking them lately. But sometimes (like on this page, in fact), I still question that opinion, haha. I think they're starting to grow on me. But I still prefer the gray split spoke wheels, myself. They just look so classy to me.

I kind of agree about the black wheels. I've never been a huge fan of them, except on white Jeeps for some reason lol. But everyone has been telling me to get black wheels! I think I'll go with my gut and stick with the standard RS wheels like you said. Thanks!

I was considering plastidipping the wheels black or gunmetal for a while but I feel like the blue needs some wheels that pop now. Maybe something high polished, or chrome if you're into that

example:

That picture is clearly washed out and not an accurate representation of the color...heck, look at the wheels...they are nearly white in that picture, and we know that isn't the case. Wait until you see the color...forget this photo.
