Yeah, and they like to debut them at the beginning of a new generation so the people saving up for that color can't get it.

Like get it now or else.
Yeah but it's a knockoff design. Not the exact design from GM.

I believe that the Corvette Night Race Blue and the Camaro Blue Ray Metallic are indeed the same color.

Yeah. They're the same. It's a good looking color just not the blue that many of us want. I think Lime Rock Green would look good on the fifth gen, specially on a 1LE. A lot of people have asked for a dark green on here so that would be great for them. Time will tell if this is good info or not. Nothing shown from the info is really far fetched so it might be true.

Yes the rims available aftermarket are knockoffs (with no disrespect intended), and unfortunately I can tell the difference. I want the OEM SSX wheels in a polished or machined texture. I'd definitely spring (or attempt to) to get them.

Am I the only one that sees "Old Blue Eyes" color at the top of the Camaro list? (Ol' blue eyes a.k.a. Frank Sinatra)

Lime Rock Green does look nice on the Corvette. I hope it's not just a renamed Polo Green.
That shade just didn't look good to me. Always seemed dull with no pop to it.

Apparently. Since there isn't an example swatch people are probably missing that.
