LeMans blue C6
Can someone post pictures of a LeMans blue? I'm wondering how similar the color is to Electron blue. Thank you. 
I've seen the ones on the GM website but was hoping someone had purchased that color and had pics.

Definitely my favorite color. Thanks everyone!

Has to be the light? I noticed that when looking through everyone's pictures. Some looked like the navy blue metallic color and other's were very similar to the electron blue. If you look at the corvette website the LeMans is a little bit duller than what everyone's pictures have shown. 
Thanks again for the pictures....all beautiful cars!

*****, the blue IMO looks a lot better than the pictures show. I've seen one at a dealer up close, and it was a metallic blue, and in certain light I could detect a hint of purple. It struck me as a very dynamic blue.
My father has a blue 350z, and I think the LMB is very similar, with the exception that it's a bit darker than the 350z.

I have yet to see one driving around the DFW metroplex. I've seen most other colors though. I did see one at the local autoshow but that had fingerprints and stuff all over it so not quite the same. 
Hopefully that color won't be too popular around here.

My web site has a page where I have a few pictures of my new C6 (LeMans Blue) and my old C5 (Navy Blue Metallic) together...

The C6 is a little bit lighter, in certain light, than my C5...
The Electron Blue is another shade, I think the LeMans Blue is somewhere in between the two...
