Hyper blue or garnet red.....

I currently own a Hyper blue metallic convertible and I am about to pull the trigger on a brand new Vert. I've narrowed my choice to another blue or garnet red tintcoat. While I would like to try something different I really have grown to enjoy all the attention the electric blue gets on a daily basis. Tough decision...LOL..... What would you pick?

It's in my signature Saw a few hyper blue Camaros in person, and they look very-very good, but nothing beats the royalty of garnet red.

I was in the same situation and chose the hyper blue with no regrets, and would do so again.
You'll get attention with either one, the garnet red is has that same kind of pop the blue has. I don't know about your area but in mine it seems the red isn't as plentiful.

Both look amazing with the dark rims. My love affair with my 17 1LE began with the Garnet Red but when I saw the Hyper Blue car in person.... I wasn't going home without it.

Love them both, but went with Garnet Red. Paint really pops in the sunlight. Son's has gray painted split spoke 20" wheels, (17 RS package) which do not take your eyes away from the Garnet Red. Also we are Mississippi State (maroon & white school colors) fans and loved the color.

Blue looks good, but Red Hot is the way to go.
