Well thank you.

Painted red calipers on the horizon.

It would look good with gray or some other light interior and chrome rims .

I'm not sure why, but it seems like this color is one of the more rare ones to see. Even when I do a search there are no SS's nearby for sale with it. There's one about 3 1/2 hours away but that's the closest with the M6.

When I order mine next month I'm pretty sure I'm getting this color but I'm not sure I can get over my complex for black cars. The fact that it seems to be one of the more scarce colors makes me like it even more though.

Ohhhh the decisions...

I'd recommend seeing it in person before ordering. From a distance most people think it's black.

I saw it on an Impala. It's not the same but I at least got an idea of it.

Btw I think I may have used poor wording, I meant my affinity for black. I like black so the color looking black isn't a bad thing.

My local dealer has an SS and it's Blue Velvet, stopped by yesterday and looked at it. The color looked good, it's very dark, you can tell it's metallic the closer to it you get and could easily appear as black in low light. The stock 5 spokes look good on it. Probably isn't my first color choice, but if you want something dark and not just black, this is a good option.

That's what I like about it. My last two cars were/are black. I kind of want a change but not too much.

From the 2017 order guide it appears Blue Velvet is being dropped.

This could end up being a fairly rare color.

It will be interesting to see how different Arctic Blue turns out to be

A tad brighter would be good. Wish it looked like this all the time.

Aw man that's a killer. Now I'm left with 1.) hurry up and order a 2016 in blue velvet or 2.) get black. My guess is arctic blue is a light blue, no thanks.
