Re: What color blue is this?

I also just found a 91 or 92 Camaro in a junkyard with that color. I think its a 90 and after paint and is definitely highly metallic. Hopefully that will help someone figure out what color it is. Been looking for it for quite some time myself.

Re: What color blue is this?

wow thanks for the help guys... i believe its stock but ive never seen one with so much mettalic in the paint. I thought about painting mine "iroc" blue and adding blue pearl to the clear but i dont know how it would look but i love the different shades that the light gives the car. I definatly want this color for mine.... it will be a HUGE change from my current lol. -Matt

after looking at pics of your car i believe you are right... i think it matches your color... but if thats the case what does the medium blue mettalic look like?

Re: What color blue is this?

The consensus seems to be Medium Quasar Blue. And if the car in the pic is a '92, then that would be right. But if it's a '91, then it's Ultra Blue, as xgtharo86x said: code 98, WA 9591.

You should probably check them both out to be sure which you prefer.

Re: What color blue is this?

judging by the wheels and gfx, that looks like a 92 and the only blue that they used in 92 was medium quasar blue (my color).

Re: What color blue is this?

That's the exact same color as my '92 Z-24 Cavalier. It's Medium Quasar Blue, alright. One of the most awesome, sexiest shades of blue available on any car anywhere. (The only other one was Admiral Blue, available on the '96 Corvette Grand Sport)

Also, I found this site as an available source of said color...

GM Ultra Metallic Blue... That is a picture of my car, where did you find that?
