That's what I've always loved about that color, the car can look black, purple and then the blue I always wanted my old T/A that color, now I have it on the Z.

I love the NBM and that why I got one but the color makes it really hard to keep clean especially living on a dirt road needs to be washed every few days to stay looking good.

Yeah, it is a pain to keep clean, but in the end I think it's worth it.

Yeah...the Navy Blue Metallic kind of grows on you, doesn't it?

I had mine inspected this morning, and judging from the very positive comments at the inspection shop, it sounds like my Z28 made their whole day....

Heh, heh, heh. If I had known about Bright Purple Metallic when I bought my car, I would have searched hell and high water for years to find a clean Camaro/Formula/Trans Am in that color. The first time I saw BPM was at the dragstrip on an immaculate Formula Firehawk vert. White top with white seats.
