Correct me if I'm wrong but the new blue colors are not the dichromatic that the CB is. God I love this CB.

There are only around 4 or so new Caribbean Blue 6MT's left in the US.

Saturn of West Nyack, NY had a used CB 6MT with only 3,054 miles on it. You may want to check it out if they still have it.

Re: Discontinued Caribbean blue?

Wasn't CB discontinued in after the '03 model year and replaced by TB?

APC is my weapon of choice.
APC reeks of great taste.
APC is the greatest aftermarket company in the world!

No. TB was added for '04 but none of the other colors were discontinued for '04. However, CB was only 5% of the build if my memory serves me right. My CB Coupe 6MT has a build date of July 2004.

The new blue colors are much more average looking than CB.
CB rules!

Re: Discontinued Caribbean blue?

I get so many on-the-road comments about my CB coupe that it still shocks me--thumbs up, blown kisses, etc.--and I can assure you that I'm nothing to look at! It's most brilliant in direct sunlight.
I'm glad they discontinued the color, it will become even more rare as time passes.

Actually, I prefer the way CB looks in a light rain. The color seems to glow when all others seem to dull. Especially in a sea of silver cars.

Re: Discontinued Caribbean blue?

I wonder if perhaps a market survey showed that it would be the best plan of action to modify the color.

If you have some 19s that you want to sell... let me know
