Electron Blue vs. Le Mans Blue!

[Patman]

I am very seriously considering the idea of having my C5 repainted in Electron Blue!

SO - What do you think of the upcoming Jetstream Blue Metallic?

[Vanity Plate Bob]

Not my favorite shade. Why can't they offer a choice?

Guess they know what "they" want to do.
If ya want a Vet, you'll take what ''we'' offer.

Why can't they offer a choice?

VP Bob - The number of parts a plant has to accommodate for each color option that is added is unbelievable.

I love the new Jetstream Blue! If I were getting an 08, it would be in that color for sure! (with Titanium interior)

Thanks.

The paint scheme is kind of like a combination of the 1996 Grand Sport and the 2004 Commemorative, only utilising Electron Blue instead of Admiral.

I’ve always liked that fiery blue you see on Subaru WRX's, however I was loath to the idea of putting a Subaru's paint on a Corvette.
Having always believed the WRX as looking like a transformer that hasn’t quite been folded into car mode, it would be a bit hypocritical of me to pinch the paint job off one.
Besides, it just felt right to pick a GM color, and the closest I’ve seen to the Subbies was in a pic of a 2002 C5, which was sporting Electron Blue Metallic.

In any case having eventually got my car painted in Electron Blue, I was a first a little disappointed that it isn’t as bright & fiery as the Subbies (unless bright sunlight is directly hitting it), but I soon learned that the darker shade seems more..well..mature.
Besides, I later learned that a car like the Corvette doesn’t need a "loud" color anyway.

BTW

As nice as my C4 is, I absolutely love to own a C6 or even a C5 like the ones you own. Rare as hen’s teeth over here because of the hassle and expense of importing a left-hand-drive car that’s younger then 15 years.
I only know of one guy in Western Australia that owns a C5 and as far as I know, there are less then four C6s in the nation! (most likely all located in Sydney)

Gotta say that that I passed over a bunch of color options to get the LB. It's a head-turner!

 

[LTVetteVert00]

Mine is a Navy Blue.....Does that count?

Same for me...we need to line all these different colors side by side and then vote...??

 

[LTVetteVert00]

Navy blue is hot! I have a 2000 Navy Blue with Oak interior. The tan top against the Navy Blue is spectacular!

Ditto in Alabama. Love the navy...LT
