Default medium quasar blue what's equvelant

What's close to the medium quasar blue from the lt1 cars. What is the new color for ls1 cars? I had heard it was then medium blue metalic. Anyone have pics of a ls1 style trans am in theat color thanks. I'm not sure if I like the color on lt1 cars so I'm wondering what it would look like with the newer front end on it. So I'm trying to figure out if I should paint all the parts to match the body or just get the car completely wrapped in vinyl
Thanks

Medium Blue Metallic was only offered in 1999.

I really like the color too! Had I bought my Trans Am in '99, I"d gone with your color. I may paint my '95 'bird that color when it's all done.

I'm going to have to go with Medium Quasar Blue, between those 2 colors.

What's with "Medium" anyways? Why not just "Quasar Blue"

The Medium Blue Metallic really needs to be seen in person to be appreciated. (if you can find one)

I just purchased my bird at the end of last summer, mainly for show. It's 100% stock and it'll stay that way for as long as I own it.

This Medium Blue Metallic color is an absolute head turner. I can't wait till spring to drive it. I was only able to put a few miles on it before I put it to bed for the winter. Also, I'm new too the forum, this looks like a great community with lots of beautiful cars and informative topics. I look forward to posting and reading more.

I'd have to disagree on it being 100% stock.....I see a tree air freshener

My drag car project is going to be that color when it's finished...here's my conceptual illustration of it:

personally, i love quasar.

the medium blue reminds me of the third gen color.

i never really considered such colors when i was shopping.

In my opinion, all T/As are black... or should be statistically there's truth in that. in '98, of 12000 T/As, almost 6000 were black

Exactly That's why I love mine.....less than 200 of them built with the MBM paint.
