I think it's "Cloisionne Blue Metallic"...?

Or is it "Dahlia Blue Metallic"?

Or something else?

gm and their color names , lol

but there was 2 blues used on the cavs , and atleast 1 on the sunfires

1 of the cav blues was more green , than the other

nether of the blues shows its true color in pics


but that blue stoped in 00


best thing i can tell you is to ge the VIN # from the car in your first pic and run the VIN # for the color code , also double check it with the code on the tire cover

I thought the Opal Blue Metallic was this one:



Which by my count, is three 95-99 shades of blue.... then there's the dark blue metallic in 00-02, and a slightly lighter (arrival?) blue in 2003-05... crazy GM

the 00-02 dark blue is called Indigo Blue Metallic, and yes the 03-05 blue is Arrival Blue.
