I'm thrilled with my choice.....If it wasn't for JSB I would still own my Torch 95 and Mag Red 01.......

Default Both colors are great

Heck, I think each color is great. The LMB is definitely a stealthy color maybe a shows dirt easier and the JSB is unique in it's ability to shift its color in the changing ambient light conditions. It's strictly a personal choice with each to their own.
Now go have a beer!!!

Nah, that's the cool thing about LMB it can look blue, purple, black or any shade in between depending on the lighting conditions.

We need to go back to when you could order custom colors:

One thing to remember about GM "back in the day", though, was the ease with which you could get a custom color from the factory. As I've said before, I sold Chevrolets in the early '70s. If I remember correctly, the cost for a custom color was in the $100-$150 range. You didn't see it happen very often (except for fleet purchases), but it was definitely available.
Neat to look at the paint colors of the past:

It's not that I don't like JSB though, I just like a bit darker. Has anyone seen the blue in Cyber Grey? Nice...

My old C4 and the new C6...

did the exact same thing! I would never even consider JSB.. no way.. no how! Car color is simply a very personal choice! Not saying JSB is a bad color just not something I would ever go for.....
