Your Bahama Blue looks a lot lighter than mine? I am painting a tailgate right now with GM 22 Bahama Blue Metallic, and it matches my truck.

Maybe the metallic in yours makes it a lil darker? I know that my color was the original color my truck when it rolled off the showroom floor back in 92, but was resprayed in 09

No, they're definitely 2 very different colors.

Hmmm now I am finding a conflicting site...

blue_92_sierra's truck is what I've always known to be Bahama Blue.

yeah they look to be totally different shades of blue. im not sure the code # off the top of my head but i know for sure that my paint is called gm bahama blue. when i gave my paint code to a GM dealer to find a match and see what my paint is called thats what they said it was

Yep I am thoroughly confused on this....the paint I ordered from that site is matching my truck perfectly, yet my paint code is WA-0986. Which on that site is gray, but a web search brings up the Medium Blue Metallic. Which I bet is right. Damnit.

I believe this color is called 'Radar Blue'. One year only. '97. Seems to change color in different light or angles.
The first two pix are from different angles of the truck in the same spot.

You can tell the truck really needs a good waxing in this one ^^^.

Not the best focus. (Damn iphones!) This one was taken about an hour after the first two, as the sun was starting to go down.
May not be as dark a bue as you're looking for, but the wife might like it. Could be an option for you.

it's a very nice blue and pretty much what we were looking at, that link Chris posted had the exact color, it was a 2011 saab waterworld or fjord blue and when I checked it out on google I found a page with new saab's and it had the fjord blue and it was very nice looking, and no it's not a typo it's actually fjord LOL.

Dunno what it is about your pics, but they make that color look more like a teal. I know the color, though. It's the best color that GM put on the GMT-400 trucks.

Your color is not Radar Blue, though. I'm pretty sure it's name is Bright Blue Metallic.

Radar Blue is more of a purple looking color. It was available on the GMT-400s ~'92 - '93 or somewhere in there. It was also used on the S10s for a couple years and was used on the 1998 Indy Pace Car Vettes.
