NASCAR has had the ZL1 pace car on track in this color and I really liked it.

tbh, I actually hit the EDIT button and was going to remove the "no reason to" part and have it just say go look at the real photos. I do agree removal of all the decals makes a big difference.

Is it just me, or is that really similar to the "Grabber Blue" Ford has been using on the Mustang? If so, it seemed to be a popular color on that car, so maybe Chevy will have similar interest from Camaro enthusiasts.

Thanks for the photoshop, it gives a much more accurate feel for the final product versus just the pace car pictures already shared.

I've had a chance to see a few C8 Corvettes in that color in the flesh, and while I only found them to be just ok in pictures, in person it really pops and works really well with the natural interior color offered on Corvette.

To me, at least based on your photoshop, I feel Rapid Blue may not work so well on the Camaro, so I would likely pass on ordering a car in that color. But maybe it will look much better in person?

i have to say, looking at videos on youtube the color on chevys site(which was obviously used here to do the photoshop) doesnt really do it justice. It's definiely an eye grabbing color.

No, not for me. Didn't like it on the C8 and definitely not on my Camaro.

Last summer when a friend dropped over in his new C8, got a real good look at it on a beautiful sunny day.....and nope, not for me.

I love the color on that C8, but I don't think it would look right on a Camaro.

I do agree with everyone saying it'll look better on the Corvette than on the Camaro. The Camaro's sharp edges make certain colors hard to love. I just love this blue enough to have it on almost any car.

Not a fan of rapid blue. At all. BUT, I do appreciate Chevy offering up some different colors!

I love Camaros in all colors, as long as they're red.
