I'm on number two. The first one was a Blue Green Chameleon 98 Formula that I factory ordered in early 1998, and the second one is my 98 Corvette, which I bought used two years ago. My next vehicle will be powered by the LS2 (I'll replace my C5 with a C6 in a few years time once the used prices come down a lot more)

Ya know, I wonder why they never offered that color on Vettes??? It's beautiful.

My Bonneville is almost the same color, I've had it parked next to a BGC T/A, and at some angles it's more green than the T/A, but at other angles you can clearly see it has the exact same shades of blue as the F-body version. I really love the color.

It still amazes me that GM never charged extra for that color, considering it probably cost them extra to produce. If you look at the lineup on the colors for the new Corvette right now, some of them cost $750 extra! (it's been like this ever since they started charging extra for Millenium yellow on the 2000 model)

One thing is for sure, my next Corvette will not be black! I am so tired of fighting a losing battle in keeping it clean. Even when the roads are completely dry here, the car only stays clean looking for about 10 miles worth of driving and then the next time you stop you see dust all over the back bumper.
