Default Carlisle Blue - Photo taken from the NCM Presentation, April 30

In case you missed it...



Just to clarify - I didn't take the photo.
It was in the presentation that the NCM gave at C5/C6 Bash - highlighting the changes for 2012.
A couple of other Forum members posted a PDF version of the presentation.

I thought they said at the Bash that the reason they only brought the rear cap was that there was not an entire car in Carlisle Blue yet? This pic looks darker than the Bash pics of the end cap. Photochop? Actooly, looks more like Supersonic Blue to me.

Seems like Chevy can't come up with any knock-out colors.

The people in charge of picking the colors all should be fired

looks to me (in that picture) that someone mixed JSB with White and came up with that picture. The samples I've seen don't look nearly that nice. We'll just have to wait until the real deal comes out. ;yn

However, why don't they have a nice green or a maroon???

Call me crazy, but I think that color looks good. It reminds me of my first car. A '70 Chevelle in Astro Blue. Looks like the same color.

Comp Grey wheels would look good on that Vette.
