Default 1989 Colors

I'm just curious if anyone know's the colors of Blue offered in 1989. I believe that Dark Metallic Blue is what I want... but I just saw one on Ebay that was lighter.... called Nassau blue. Was this actually offered in 89', or just painted to match the C5 nassau blue? :chevy

Both a Nassau(ish) Blue was offered as well as the Dark Blue Metallic you mentioned.
White, Black , Red, Charcoal, Dark red were all offered as well...
I think a handful of yellows even slipped through the cracks

Dark blue on an 89 is extremely dark - almost black under different lighting conditions. Have had an 87 and a 91 Caprice in dark blue metallic and the vette is noticibly darker.
