its probably the imperial blue metallic. its already offered but only for the v6. the only other blue is that really light baby blue color. my guess is its the imperial blue. which might be close or the same as the GS camaro at SEMA.

The other one is Aqua Blue Metallic, which is quite a bit darker than what I think of when I hear "light baby blue".

I'm hoping it's both, but if I had to pick just one, it would be Imperial.

Imperial Blue Metallic:


Aqua Blue Metallic:


My idea of light baby blue:

sorry, it kinda reminds me of a baby blue but maybe a bit on the darker side in this picture.

I prefer JSB, but Aqua will suffice for an old Lemans Blue 1969 Camaro owner.

I saw Aqua Blue in real life on an HHR at the Indy event.
It didn't look like this picture.

I think we helped make it happen. On a day when voters are being heard across the country I think GM listened as well.

so being reasonable, as much as GM wants to get the word out as fast as possible, internal workings are slower at GM. I'm sure there was some noise over customers walking in telling dealerships they can get poslished wheels with RS with nothing officially communicated to the dealerships.

+1.

Don't anybody head down to your dealer expecting to change your order, or get a blue SS. Not until mid-November, at least.
