Default New Mulsanne Blue ???

Received an e-mail from "E-Newsletter@ChevyMall" this morning. The Corvette on the banner was blue....but clearly not LMB....much lighter. Could this be the new Mulsanne Blue?

I'd be glad to forward the e-mail to any one interested in posting it.

I hope they do offer a lighter blue in 2008, I'll be all over that like a cheap suit...

Me too, but LMB is what I bought, so my opinion may not be worth much.

I will be ordering LMB very soon before GM phases it out, The light Blue is O.K. but i rather have an 07 LMB with 400HP than a 08 Light Blue with 435 to 450HP, I gots to have LMB no ifs ands or buts about it.

Got a Machine Silver 2007 coupe and for me being unbiased, I prefer the LMB to the Mulsanne Blue. Personally, I would like to see an even
darker blue than LMB. Of course, the darker color you go, the less revealing the C6 body is, which is why I selected the lighter colored MS

One of my favorite Corvette colors is Nassau Blue Metallic. It is just so purdy.

I'm still waiting for the return of Electron Blue. I think that would look fantastic on a C6.

Funny, I have a Nassau Blue C5, but I really don't think the C6 would look anywhere near as good in a lighter blue.
