the color is bermuda blue pearl, it was a special oder GM color from 06-10 on caddy trucks and chevy avalanche and tahoe. the pics dont do it justice, cant wait to pull it out in the sun when its all wet sanded n buffed out. it changes from green to blue to teal depending on howu look at the car ---
