Hyper Blue Should Be a Premium Color for an Additional Cost

Its no secret that Hyper Blue is going to be a very popular color. Hyper Blue deserves to be premium paint like Laguna Blue is to Corvette or Kinetic Blue was to the Hot Wheels edition Camaro.

Aren't Garnet Red Tintcoat and Bright Yellow already the premium colors? They cost more.

Personally I would be overjoyed if i didn't have to pay extra for a color.

Ill pay a premium for paint if it actually doesn't chip off so damn easily... I'm mad I paid $350 for inferno orange for it to chip so damn easily.

Just mail your check to GM then if you feel that way. I sure don't.

I am pretty sure that most of us are glad that Chevy brought back a true blue color to Camaro but I am not sure why you would want all of us to pay extra for the color. You might have some extra money that you feel compelled to give GM but I am pretty sure that the rest of would like to keep the money for mods for the new car.

I am more than happy to pay for premium paint like Laguna Blue on the Corvette or Kinetic Blue from the Hot Wheels Camaro.

Hyper Blue is not going to hit that level of quality and instead will be an overused color of choice for all the kids v4s at your local high school.

Sad really as its more like HYPE BLUE.

A color this beautiful deserves more than a v4 or v6 under its hood.

Considering you're referring to it as a "V4"...
