Honestly, go with either... Both would look fantastic. Just decide if you want a factory or something original...

I thought True Blue was on 1970-1971 'ish GTO's???

Regardless, if you go NBM LEAVE THE PUPPLE TINT OUT OF IT!!!!!

I would (and did) do Electron Blue, my 1994 Z:



and currently have NBM, my 1998 Z:



NBM is nice but if I had a choice it would be Electron Blue...

Yeah, Electron Blue would be badass, but if you want something darker, go with an original blue color. True Blue is a Ford color that went on the Bullit Mustangs.

That's right, now I remember. I went with an ex to get her a "True Blue" Mustang GT.

Yeah, if the choice is NBM or True Blue I would go True Blue... It's like NBM without the gay purple...

The restored a 1971 Lemans into a GTO on "Wrecks to Riches" and painted it True Blue (I believe a period color) and it looked very similar to electron blue, hence my confusion
