GM Finally did it!!!!!

I saw the color, i've been dreaming of seeing a truck in since 2005 when I seen a Cobalt in Laser Blue Metallic:happy2:. Apparently GM is offering 2010 1500, Avalanches, and Tahoes, maybe Burbans in this color too, I was working near the interstate Wednesday, saw a truck on a semi this color, thought for sure I was going crazy and low and behold I seen it today at the dealer up on the display ramps and pulled in right away to see it. You really have to see this color on a truck for it to do it any real justice, I swore off the idea of buying a LML, but if they end up offering them in the color, I'd be on the list with one ordered, but I cant find any info on them offering them in this color for the HD's. GM doesnt have this color on the website, but carsdirect and yahoo, show this color as an option for ordering, from what little I could gather it appears to maybe even be just a limited edition color. So can anyone tell me will they sell 2500HD's in this color?

Almost looks like arrival blue from the older trucks.

Anyone know how accurate this info here is? It seems really weird to me that GM would offer option for solid color of green, orange and yellow. Yet leave out Victory/Fire Red, which has been a staple color for many many years.

In the pictures, it sorta does but in the sun this color just pops, its a much deeper blue, yet almost bordering on bluish purple at a certain angle, without being a femine color at all. Not like that metallic cherry color or whatever that was they offered in the LMM's.

The chart showed red, are you saying GM isn't listing it ? The green, yellow, and orange are commercial special order as always

Im retarded, I seen the color chart and just seen a dark red, and assumed it was that metallic red offering. I've just been off the walls happy since I seen that truck today, so that probably explains, why I cant read. I was going to paint my 98 that color, but if I could order a brand new CC/SB Sierra in that color, I'd be a very happy camper.

The latter pics you posted are a sweet shade of blue. I hope they offer it for you Nick.

Looks like its a color only for the 1/2 tons.....

Only blue avaliable for the 2011's is the imperial blue metallic.

That blue is sweeeet! I'm a little biased though.

 

[TheBac]

I dunno...looks Marine Blue-ish to me.....but then Im biased.

I'll be the ass I guess. It's a girl color to me. Sry.

However! I loved the arrival/marine blue like toms truck!!

I think seeing this color on the hhr ruined it for me.

Lol, I figured I'd get a few of those, I dont remember the color name but Corvettes were painted a blue color close to this, it was bad ass blue, but looked purpulish in the dark, this reminds me of that with 10X the depth and metallic in it.

 

[SmokeShow]

Ok, so I mighta exaggerated my stance a little. It's not my fav color but it's not a girl color either. . It does look purplish sometimes.

 

[mmangels22]

Regardless of whats said, I like the color makes the truck look great.

Electron Blue. And if you ask Kat Electron Blue Corvettes are the fastest Corvettes.
