medium quasar blue Camaro owners... help

Does this 2000 B4C Camaro look like it was repainted medium quasar blue metallic to you? It looks similar to me. The ad on ebay doesn't say the paint color because it's a used car dealership.




it was originally silver or pewter

It looks like QBM to me. Those two pics side by side aren't the best because the LT1 was taken in the sun. This may help a bit:

According to my 1993-2002 Camaro brochures, Medium Quasar Blue was not available after the 1997 model year.

In case I wasn't clear, the car has been repainted and the seller didn't mention what color probably because they didn't know. I know it's not a factory paint job.

I really do think it was repainted medium quasar blue the more I look at it, so that's kind of neat... It sure looks better on the '93-'97s than it does on the 98+

I doubt it's quasar blue, just because there's a million different blues it could be, and why would they specifically repaint it quasar since they were changing the color anyway? Regardless, it's impossible to tell unless you had that car and a real quasar blue car right next to each other and looked at them in person.

Looks pretty damn close to mine. But I also have 20 pics in 20 shades of blue. It's hard as hell to photograph this color. :P

My car is Quasar. Its a color that reacts to light a lot. Its bright in the light and dark anywhere else. None of the pics of LT1 are good to use for comparison due to the light. Even that one with the ZO6 wheels. There is a filter placed on most of that pic and it really looks like the car has a mild filter aswel. I think the car was repainted Quasar. It definitely does not look good imo.
