For those that have placed orders/purchased...what color did you go with? - Page 4

SUKXOST · 09-24-2015, 10:44 AM

not a single silver so far? huh......silver and black cars can look MEAN. I've had 3 silver cars but white takes the cake with the camaros IMO.

AlexM · 09-24-2015, 11:15 AM

No love for silver?

leadfoot93 · 09-24-2015, 12:18 PM

I was going to get silver but my current cars are silver, 04 grand prix gtp and 10 equinox. so couldn't do another silver. I went with Garnet Red

KMPrenger · 09-24-2015, 12:27 PM

Dang...Hyper Blue still in the lead.

Guess I'm going to have to work faster on this car making it unique lol.

*sigh*...having ABM being so rare on the 5th gen was so awesome....I'm going to miss that.

No one here might have silver but I'm sure more silver will be sold than blue velvet.

I think the orange would be a natural choice for a bold/exotic color instead of the deep blue.

My first camaro was deep forest green with a tan leather interior. Absolutely loved that car. I also remember the deep green on the early 70's camaros.

Anyone else wish this color was an option?

edit:
This was posted in the Photoshop thread. Would look killer.

Forest Green is used right now on the 2015 Green Flash edition, but it has a heavy pearl coat on it. An old style forest green would be better than two reds or two blacks.

Curr · 09-24-2015, 01:19 PM

A 'dark' green would have been killer, or DSOM from the C7. Would order both of those over the Summit White I plan on getting next year.

Dont forget a lot of the gen5 wanted a blue, but they priced that last one to high, hot wheels car was a 6K upgrade, and when the 5the gen car came out no one know what the ABM looked like, they said look at the sonic and we know what that looked like,

let's hope it lasts, like to see the ZL1 in that blue too.

I will say, however, that the fact that white was the most popular color doesn't make my thought incorrect. You have to remember that as someone that goes out of the way to order a car, you are in the vast minority of car buyers.

Most people just buy what they can get the best deal on at the car lot. If the production numbers show that white was produced more than any other color, maybe the best deal to be had is on a white car because there are more of them, and therefore, more left over when the specials come around.

I could absolutely be wrong, but then again, there's no way to prove it unless we start surveying the general public to ask why they bought a white car. As I said before, every single person I know that bought a white car, did so because a better deal was available on it, not because it was their first color choice. You have to remember that most people are willing to sacrifice on nearly everything on their wish list if the deal is right when it comes to cars.

I'm just going to quote myself from earlier in the thread since you decided to post a response to my first response without reading the subsequent ones.

Anytime GM showcases a car in a colour, it tends to well and thats exactly what they didnt do with ABM.
They had terrible CGI images which displayed a pretty ugly blue but anyone who saw ABM in person were stunned by the colour. They just never gave it a real chance.

Glad they did with the 6th gen. Now bring us an orange again

Knein · 09-24-2015, 04:32 PM

Gave that many people here really ordered the blue?. I know I can't wait for mine to arrive.
