Jetstream Blue SS/TC

In light of recent events i've been contemplating repainting my car thanks to the ignorance of some of the locals. Originally i was deciding between white, yellow and a shade of blue but some of the ECC guys suggested the colot Jetstream blue which is currently my top choice and for those that dont know is a GM color but its a corvette color not a cobalt color. For anyone thats ever seen this color its a very pretty color but i wanted some more opinions on this color for a final input before i go ahead and lock in on it.

Here is an example of the color

It's such a nice clean looking color. Really makes a car look sporty.

and this kind of opinion is why i want more feedback since i can only imagine portions of the car in my head in this color not the whole thing

YES!. This Blue has been my all time favorite. I had a 2001 Blazer Xtreme this color in College, it was by far the most beautiful color on a vehicle I'd ever owned. Here's a pic of one exactly like I had:



Do it, please... After I see it, I may have to convince my Wife my paint needs to be redone...

If I recall correctly this is the color that SoundJunky would love to get a cobalt in.

I say do it, should look decent.

The ZR1 gets by because it is so aggressive looking and is a 600 horsepower snarling beast

cobalt.....not so much, 3/4 cobalt coupes are driven by "daddy's girls" who had it bought for them in high school. or at least thats how it is around here.

with that blue on the car i would just imagine some blond cheerleader as the driver when i looked at it, especially with the low rise

not trying to burst bubbles, just being honest here

I'd say do it. It really looks great on the Corvette (there is one at the dealership here, saw it in person looks GREAT). Really accents the car nicely. And since you have the TC, the rims go nicely with that color in my opinion.

Some may think its a girls color, but I find it very different and as someone else said sporty.

Do it!

i like Imperial (obviously) lol
If you are swinging towards it i say make it just a tad lighter and some extra flake to make it sparkle a bit more. unless my paint is in the sun it looks a tad bland sometimes :/
