Nassau Blue come back?
I heard "thru the grapevine" that 2007 Nassau Blue will be back for a 1-2 year run. Since I can't confirm this info, I am asking if anyone has also heard this?

Nope. Consider this: there was a hiatus from 1967 to 1997 when none of the blue hues on Corvettes were "Nassau blue." So, I think the reappearance of this hue is problematical (whatever that means).
FWIW. . .

It's hard to admit, but I never had a blue car before the BlueCoupe.

If Nassau blue had been available for the '05 C6 I would have foresaken the Mag red for it.

Not my favorite color, but I don't need one of every color! Honestly, I think the dark blues are sharper. However, to answer the question.....haven't heard any rumors.

i just traded my 99 Nassau blue coupe for my 06 black coupe. I really miss that color, it was much easier to keep clean, and looked really good at night with the right light!
Here's a pic at a car show
(But, i do like my C6 better!!!

That is one of the best color's EVER offered on ANY year Corvette. I tried for years to buy a NB C5, could never find one.
The C6 would look wicked in NB.

I heard GM has hired a former VW-Porsche-Audi design guru, to be in charge of paint, interior trim, etc. Vettes, being an iconic car, like the Beetle, will soon have short-run, interesting colors -- Candy *** Yellow, Crap Apple Brown, Job Blue, etc.
