Having not seen this color in person, and judging only from the pics, i have to say i am really excited about it. It reminds me of back in 2004 when i was looking at a C5, they had a MSG car back in the service department and i wasn't sure about the color. But when they pulled it out into the sunlight i was absolutely blown away. I ended up buying that car!!
Cyber Gray was a no-brainer replacement for my beloved C5. I still think Cyber Gray is the absolute best color available right now, with JSB second. However, i have a feeling when i see SSB in person i might put it ahead of JSB. Can't wait to find out for sure!

LOUSVETTE: What is "MSG"? You guys kill me with your abbreviations
However, I think in 04 there was a dark grey and he means " Metallic Spiral Grey"...
By the way, the Supersonic Blue does really look good in the pictures. Guess I'll have to wait until Carlisle to see it.

Thinking about that SSB color car with the Callaway treatment is tantalizing.

Here is some pics I took at the Bash. I love the color as well. Very different and like others have said, really pops in the sun. Notice how the color changes just shooting at different angles to the light.

I remember that color when I bought my used C5 I was very disappointed I couldn't find one. My '09 Cyber Grey is the next best thing
"Blue stiching"....you must be kidding me. Glad I didn't order one.

I think it's nice. Not my favorite "blue" color but still classy. It is more of a blue/grey with silver flake.
One thing is that the SSB, due to it's high content of silver flake, it will be a PITA to touch-up. Metallic's are always difficult to touch-up/blend.

That looks a lot like the Steel Blue back on the C4, which was a rare color only offered for a few years if memory serves. One very classy color to be sure. This new spin on it looks great on the C6, IMO!! Vettes do look very good in blue, no doubt about that.
