Which I am sure by now that most of the car magazine Photographers are using Digital SLR pro models, Something like a Canon D1S, if that is the case then it could also be down to the editing software they are using or even the ink in the printer, there is no real way of telling, the only good way to tell is to see the car in the flesh
Just look at an 05 Electric blue.
How's that?!

Ok, I'm confused.

So, I went to a dealer yesterday, and the picture on the bottom could be electric blue... but the one on top... there would have to be a lot of light/brightness changes to make electric blue look like that (Granted, it was at night and it was getting dark)

Can electric blue owners chime in here? Do your cars ever look like the top pic?

Also, on the sheet that's in the first post, it does say "new color" next to blue. Did Japan have electric blue last year?

Here are some pics of my Electric Blue. Pictures are HARD to take of this car. The color looks different every time I take a picture! You really should go see it yourself. At night it becomes very dark blue and it looks brilliant and in the sun it looks glimmering and metallic-like blue. Here are some different pics to do a comparo. *On a side note - when I went to get an EVO I decided to get the new Electric Blue without ever seeing it in person, I only saw some camera phone shots taken by another member. However, I could not be happier. My second choice was white, then black. I didnt like red at first but since Ive seen them on the road I think they look great! Damn it... Id be happy with any color!!!!!

Good shot:


Now check out the thumbs. The first one shows how light blue the car can look, and the other one is with a lot less light!

I went to the dealer, and I did see it myself, but it was dark. I mentioned that a few posts up.
