Arctic Blue thread?
Hi, everyone.
I know 2017 cars are being shipped out. Are there any photoshop pictures or real pictures of cars that have Arctic Blue? I would really like to see this color on a Camaro other than the ZL1 picture. |

Someone near me has a grand sport Vette with polished wheels and at first I wasn't sure but now I like it. It's different. Think of a very metallic baby blue.
Here's an example. Not the exact shade Arctic blue but I think it's very similar. http://gtcarlot.com/car/56705436 |

Hey guys, I'm new here, been lurking for a while though and I also want to see the artic blue before I order my 2017. I see the 2017 corvette has the same paint code but called sterling blue and found a few pics.

Is it my monitor or my eyes or both? this looks silver to me! Would love to see a silver side by side with this... I was hoping for at least a little hint of blue!
Edit: I browsed around the stingray forum and found this discussion: looks like it is pretty much silver and they say that it looks even less blue in person. http://www.stingrayforums.com/forum/...or-thread.html Last edited by stevstevd; 07-05-2016 at 06:37 AM. |

I'm hoping it's more of a light blue because to me, if it's silver-ish then it's a waste of time. Supposedly the color "Arctic Blue" is going to be on several 2017 models, not just the Camaro.
The only image, other than the silver-ish looking one we've all seen of the ZL1 that claims to be arctic blue is of a Cruze (not sure of model year) but also one of a 2017 Impala in "arctic blue metallic" so I don't know if it's the same on the Camaro. I think the Sonic gets ABM too. I've been scouring the internet to find a picture of one since I know 2017's are hitting the dealerships but no luck so far. |

I can't believe they deleted Blue Velvet for this.

The pics of the Cruze and Impala above are not the color on the 2017 Camaro. The link to the Grand Sport Vette is the new blue. You can also search it under the name Silver Moonlight Metallic for the 2017 ATS and CTS.

Exactly. I was deciding between a Nightfall Gray or Blue Velvet 1LT Camaro...Nightfall Gray it is then.
I wonder why GM does this ? There was an Aqua Blue Metallic (I think that was the correct name) that was awesome on the 5th gen. It was discontinued after one model year. Why anybody at GM thought this color is better than Blue Velvet is totally mystifying. Why can't they add this color and keep Blue Velvet too? |

There's been a lot of threads going back a lot of years on the color blue as it relates to the Camaro. From ABM, IBM, BRM, BVM, etc. Chevy just can't seem to find and stick with a blue. It seems that drama will continue into the 6th Gen.
