CGM question

[Countach]

for all of you CGM owners, how much does the paint sparkle in person. Because i have only seen pics of it and i can only see the sparkles in the close up pictures. So is it easy to see in person?

it's really glossy but once you get within like eight feet of the car it becomes very "sparkly" as you would say.

I have the CGM on order, but I have a CGM '09 Corvette in the garage. The color is OUTSTANDING and pops when you get close. I'd say the 8 feet from the previous post would be about right. That's not to say you can't tell it's metallic from further away, but when you are up closer ALL of the colors become visable (and there are a bunch in there). It's is truly a beautiful color - so much so that the ONLY color I considered for the Corvette's stable mate was the same CGM...

I have CGM ordered too. My dealer called to let me know that they just had their first CGM come in so I could see it on the Camaro finally. This really is the PERFECT color for this car. It hides panel lines like the black, but still has that metallic sparkle. I was also very impressed at how the shape of the car isn't masked by the color. Still able to see all of those sexy curves! Something you really need to see in person.

CGM 2SS/RS LS3 ordered 4/16/09

Go to your local Chevy dealer and look at the Traverse.

I was stuck on IOM/w white stripes. I never even considered CGM, until I saw an '09 Corvette at the dealer. It's was beautiful! It really throws a lot of color at you. I didn't care for the CGM Traverse so much, although it was raining that day. It didn't seem to pop like the Vette. Needless to say, I ordered CGM with painted IOM stripes.

I didn't know painted stripes were an ordering option.

Me too - up until I saw it on a vette I was flip flopping between it and IBM. After seeing the CGM. . .it was love
