Nothing is perfect to begin with , it may looked perfect 40 years ago , but now , with all the new technology and know how available to experiment all kinds a things on the paint manufacturing , it's possible to come up with the craziest colors , even the colorless black can be improved |

GM should have (but not limited to)
Pearl (very pearl) white Bright, bright electric blue Metallic black Bring back a super bright green - ala Synergy A metallic orange - less red than IOM Dark blue pearl, similar to Night Race Blue A yellow similar to millennium yellow back on the 00s Vettes Grey has been popular lately, so put in a nice deep grey as well. And then the standard barrage of non-metallic/pearl colors: White, Red, Black. |

The MBP Midnight Blackhawk Pearl Honda has is really nice. It's back with a blue metal flake in it. The only thing I wish is that the flake was a little more noticeable but otherwise it's killa! To see the car from distant or even close up within a few feet it looks black but when the sun hits it right or you're really close you see a pearl blue hue to it. Really looks great! The other color that would look nice is an Ice Blue or blue steel as we use to call it back in the day. Also an opaque or powder blue would look good, no flake just a simple plain blue.

Would like to see a metallic black, pearl white (like on the Z28 at C5Fest), and a blue like the one linked below.

I saw a White Diamond Tricoat impala at the dealership that I'd love as an option, it had a nice pearlescent finish that reminded me quite a bt of the pictures I've seen of the Z/28.
I also really like the "Tiger Shark Grey" (name pending...) on the 2015 Corvettes.
