I hope not.

Daytona Blue Metallic is color code WA304N / 69.

Blue Flash Metallic is color code WA520Q / 39.

Brochure color samples never look like the actual colors IMO.

First photo I saw for the listing the Imperial Blue had a photo of a Daytona Blue. SO go figure.....

The two shades of blue don't even match.....

Blue Flash Metallic appears to be a middle ground between DBM and Majestic Amethyst. It's got a little more purple than DBM. Might be another color like Golden Teal where in a certain light a secondary color comes out (in this case, it looks like a high-intensity blue).

I would describe it like something close to electric blue, but with a touch more purple.

I was always a fan of the Electron Blue of the Z06 Corvette, I wonder if this new blue is anything like it...
If the new HHR SS isn't offered in Corvette yellow, this would be the color for me.

think this blue is anything close to the new color?

Now that looks close to DBM to me.
