1968 EE Blue is a wonderful, rarely seen color. Very rich, and to me makes the B5 and B7 colors look sorta grayed out. As far as later colors, Theres Intense Blue Pearl and the new Challenger's Deepwater Blue looks good. I enjoy studying all makes for color ideas when out and about as well. Hope this helps.

I like nightwatch blue. Had it on my 81 cordoba
Pontiac offered a "Night Watch Blue". It is a stunning color. A local TransAm owner has that color (factory).

I really like the blue on this Torino. If I remember correctly it's a Lexus color,and I can't find the article on it.It was in either Car Craft or Hot Rod. Also I believe Stu(MidPenMopar) knows the owner also.

GM makes a color similar to the torino. it's called laser blue. there is red pearl in it so it will give it some purple tint side tones. laser blue is used on mostly on cobalts, but i have seen that color in equinoxes and monte carlos also.
perception is 90% of reality
