Black Rose Metallic: should the Camaro get it?

Anyone else think this new (dark metallic purple) colour for the 2017 Corvette would look incredible on the Camaro? It's a colour like this that could totally swing me further towards a Camaro purchase.

Here's a picture for reference in case you haven't seen it yet.



Thoughts?

Not a fan of purple. Only a few things look good in purple, velvet, robes, Darkwing Duck.

I like the color on the Vette but would rather see orange for the Camaro

Yeah, I'd.rather see orange myself. If it takes a specific color to convince you to buy a Camaro then you probably need to keep shopping.

Yes, a competition orange type color with black wheels and black rally stripes would look sick.

There aren't many colors left I haven't owned but purple would be one of them. I like it and would consider it.

You misunderstand. There are currently about 3 different cars I'm considering for my next purchase (incl a 6th gen Camaro), and all of them have their own pros and cons, making it like paper-rock-scissors. The right colour could help me break that gridlock.

That's probably my least favorite color on the Corvette, I don't think the camaro can make it look any better.

Love it. This would be a much better replacement for blue velvet than the upcoming baby blue in my opinion.
