Not really. The CR blue is a lot lighter and creamier.
Pretty much two different colors.

Everyone I was with that saw the CR in person said it looked like LSB too. It's not exact but it's pretty close.

Yes, it's a little too close to painter's tape blue, in gloss, but that Royal Navy Blue above looks like a winner. One thing to think about though is how a Blue exterier will look with a red engine compartment and/or door panels. Also, what color is the interior?

Oddly, Chevrolet makes a nice metallic blue for the Impala, and the Saturn Sky's blue is really nice also..

Probably the same mettalic blue on the Chevy truck. Pretty nice really. Still, I think that repainting a car a different color will seriously devalue the car. Resale will be tough but if you intend to keep it long term then have at it. Make sure you get the engine compartment and trunk.
