I wish there was a color between Hyper Blue and Blue Velvet.

I've heard that at night it looks darker and in the bright sunshine is looks like a shade darker than the Hyper Blue.

I think that obviously the Hyper blue will be more popular, and therefore I'm going to order a Blue velvet 2SS, NPP, Auto, Mag. ride control, sunroof.

I hope you are right.

Even before I narrowed car choice down, I wanted my next car to be a rich darker blue, or a darker grey, but I wanted it to be easily discernible what color the car is.

Now my top color choices may be out if both are that dark. I'm not encouraged by the fact that we can't tell what color the car is in these pictures.

If you want to see this color in real life you dont have to go off of a pic, its on current GM cars like the CTS, XTS, Impala, 2015 Camaro and I believe the 2015/16 Buick Regal.

Whenever i see this color in person i dont think hyper blue or anywhere close to it, i see purple and no blue. It has an color change effect to it in different lighting

I dont normally post pictures of myself on internet but my wife took these pictures and you guys have limited pictures. Im only posting this because i used to view the hyper blue thread daily until i saw it in person. This was a 1ss car.

IMO this color is understated and the most elegant, especially with the Kalahari leather!

I'm planning on making a trip to a Cadillac dealer in the near future to scope out some of the colors available on the Camaro.

I hope this colour doesn't disappear from the lineup for a while. It's right up there with Garnet Red Metallic as my favourite. I'm probably not in line for a Camaro (or Challenger, the debate rages on) until the 2018 model year.

It won't because it's the most elegant! IMO

Wow man, thank you, that's my color!

I have to admit, it does look great in those pictures. I am curious to see it in person now.

BradfordCamaro · 11-30-2015, 07:23 PM

Been staring at these.
White is my color. Most of my cars have been white.

I think this will be my color now. I love Blue...This is so Sharp. It will get second looks for sure. Far better than Hyper Blue.
