Well it's aquamarine, so aren't they the same color? I mean, its going to look very very similar to that

Edit: well its nautical blue like this

Nautical blue is not aquamarine/galaxy blue silica.
they are similar in that they are both dark blues, but not the same.

there are some good pictures of the FR-S in aquamarine/GBS in the geneva thread over on the FR-S side.

Here's the 86 in GBS at the Geneva Motor Show.

A nice, rich blue. Not as dark as the black (where I think you lose the lines of the car) but not as in your face bright as some of the other options. Pretty!

Turbowned's shots show how tough it is to take a good picture of this color, even in full sunlight. It may be one of those that you really need to see for your self.

here is a shot of one that a local dealer sent in Harrisburg, PA that they got in for training, shows off the GBS color nicely

Best photo of the color so far. Thanks Draco.
Do I hate it or do I love it? I'm still not sure...

Want. So bad.

Not available in Canada, Canada doesn't have DGM either. Ended up getting SWP. Wish so bad it was matte instead. :P

Draco233 · 03-14-2012, 02:50 AM

From what I see in that pic that I got in the email from the dealer, it almost reminds me of the Indigo Blue Metallic chevy used a few years ago, matter of fact just like my cavalier I own currently lol.

Here's one on the factory line at Gunma:

Same exact car as previously posted by Turbowned in post #17.

Below are a couple photos from member DEC1 and Korinfox at Keene Subaru in New Hampshire as well as my photos of the FRS in the same color at today's IQ event.

The color looks much better in person than what I have seen online. Just like WRB, GBS looks different (read: BETTER) in person than online. Not too purple or too dark. No doubt a very decent color.
