I realize it's hard to get an accurate photo representation on a computer screen, but the pic of your car looks like the B2 Glacial Blue Satellite that I once owned. But, like I said, it could just be my monitor. Here's a pic of a B5 that I found.71440 gtx wrote:

Agree here, that looks like B7 blue to me as well. I know for sure this was B5, I had it mixed and painted it myself many many years ago. Lacquer... now how long ago was that?

That rubber bumper car is B5. The colors in the photo have probably been tweeked a little to make the blue look richer.

I saw that B2 340 4 spd buddy seat Road Runner at Nationals this year. I just stared and drooled. That car was SWEET!Eric wrote:That rubber bumper car is B5. The colors in the photo have probably been tweeked a little to make the blue look richer.

cs51762 , what is the story with the nose piece / bumper ? was that an option on the GTX or was it tried to be made to have the RTS look . either way it looks cool .

Re: GB5 True Blue Metallic pics needed please
that's the optional elastomeric bumper - the only factory way to have painted bumpers 

Re: GB5 True Blue Metallic pics needed please
Super rare option on 71 only gtx,roadrunner and satellites.Took me over twenty years to find an original front bumper,finally found a wrecked one.The steel loop bumper is just not painted but it is rubber coated too.Still have not painted mine.....soon.
