This is an interesting issue(especially considering the recent Mazda recall), so I looked into it a little. Seems like y'all arent alone.

Porche: Speed yellow and bugs.

I could keep going, but I think the point is made. Maybe AAC will release the new Oracle bug zapper for Rally Yellow Gen 5 Camaros?

You guys with yellow Camaro's consider yourself lucky. A few years ago read a study regarding colors birds prefer to poop on. They laid out about a dozen 3' x 3' flat panels on a NYC roof top & panels painted in the most popular auto colors. White by far received most bird poop. They think the birds saw white as a predator bird (poop on your enemy?). I agree with the study as my summit white Camaro and pearl white Riviera tend to receive more bird poop then other auto colors I have owned. My white autos tend to receive more bird hate on sunny days just after my white cars are washed.

Perhaps the fly's hanging around Justin's Summit White are just waiting for the bird poop to land.

Synergy green too, it's like crack for bugs I guess.

My buddy has a yellow Camaro. In Florida the bugs die on the paint from the intense heat!! So yellow Camaros remind me of this:

I must be lucky. I've had my car since February and no bird poop or even bugs so far. I've put almost 5000 miles on the car.
