Jet Stream Blue guys, c'mon in!
 
Looking to purchase a used JSB C6Z. The closest one at a dealership, is 2 hours away, and closed on weekends?!?:bang:

What do you guys think of the color? throw up some pics, comments and everything.

the runner up is Cyber Grey:secret2:

Bones87 Jan 16, 2009 09:22 PM

Atomic Orange for the win baby! But JSB is definitely my 2nd choice.

scramblerman Jan 17, 2009 04:38 PM

that color only looks good in a C6Z.
I say go for it!

Trans Am Jam Jan 17, 2009 04:41 PM

I love that color. I say do it. It looks soo badass at night with color matched rims.

Ragtop 99 Jan 18, 2009 08:34 AM

Bones has it half right. ;)

MetallicaMatt Jan 18, 2009 02:00 PM

lol

I like the Orange, I just don't think I could buy one!

The owner of the car I'm looking at says all of the Vette gatherings he goes to, he always hears "I love that color" and "I wish I would have bought that color" etc etc

Of course, he owns the car, so I have to take it with a grain of salt, but I believe him.

I already own too many red vehicles and I want something to pop, I think this would do it.

But how light of a blue is it? I guess I don't want a baby or powder blue.

Here are a few of the Z06 JSB pix I could find from corvetteforum.com, hope you like 'em!

Since I haven't seen either color in person yet

is Jet Stream Blue > Cyber Grey?

Bones87 Jan 19, 2009 01:32 PM

That's a tough choice. In my opinion, JSB is a great sunny day color while Cyber Gray is perfect for that sleek phantom-in-the-night look. You honestly can't go wrong with any color on a Z06. :)

The dealer closest to me has 5 of them outside in Blue, Black, Red, Yellow, and Orange and my girlfriend and I went to check them out on a nice night a few weeks ago. We stood in front of them and literally could not pick a color, they were all gorgeous in their own right and reason. Another dealer has Z06s in Black, Cyber Gray, and Red and again they all look amazing for different reasons.

If you want to check out Cyber Gray, take a look at Tony's Z06 (member name Nine Ball). Hes put aftermarket HRE rims on it, but it looks phenomenal. Heres a thread with links to his pictures: Cyber Gray

Remember that metallic colors will show up much lighter in a picture than they really are. The JSB is a very deep sky blue..not baby blue at all. It looks really good during the day and even better at night because it darkens a bit except where the direct light hits the metallic.

Really cool color. You will like JSB. IMO Atomic Orange is too light DSOM was much better.

I saw that car over on the corvette forum. VERY SWEET. But the one I'm looking at hasn't even done a burn out...until I get my hands on it :devil:

:eyes: yeah right. I haven't done a burnout in mine either :D

IMO JSB is a pretty cool color in person. Id get Atomic orange as my first choice though.

2 best colors for sure!

Bones87 Jan 19, 2009 11:13 PM

:drool:

Cole Train Jan 20, 2009 12:04 AM

You guys are CRAZY. best color is BLACK for sure:D haha Then i'd say White after that the two above my post. Too bad the only white Z06 you'll see is either custom or a Ron Fellows:( to the O/P see the color in person and let us know what YOU think. i think it's a gorgeous color blue and if i was to completly change the color of my Vette it would likely be that color or Pearl white

TORCH FRC Jan 20, 2009 01:46 AM

JSB next to Monterey Blue (Custom color). JSB is a 3 stage so the light really plays with the color. I would use some black accents (wheels, halo, etc...) to give it some contrast.

So you are buying a new one then with the mueseum delivery?

That one for sale is awesome, plus a low price. A couple of more years and hopefully I will buy one.

MetallicaMatt Jan 20, 2009 12:54 PM

I ended up finding a 08, with around 2,000 miles on it for almost $50k!!

Hope to have a deposit on it by the end of the week.
