i might be late to for this but i got off a chat from chevrolet and they said they currently have one new color for the 2012 camaro models. its the carbon flash metalic. which is on the 45th (ann) camaro. I hope they go back to an original blue color from 1969, the Dusk Blue color!!

We gained Crystal jewel.... IBM is coming back and they are validating a replacement for CGM. From what we have been told CFM will only be on the 45th anniversary model. So we are 3 for 3!

We are working on a replacement for CGM -- it will be somewhat 'richer'

.......and............

If we offered 50 colors -- there would still be those who were not happy with the selection.

We try our best.

So IF Crystal red is brought over to the Camaro this is roughly what it will look like...

Thank you for contacting Chevrolet and for your interest in the 2012 Camaro! We appreciate the time you have taken to write us.

For the 2012 Camaro our resources have provided new exterior color information. The Camaro will be available in Gray, Imperial Blue and new Crystal Red Claret later in the 2012 model year. These exterior colors may not be the exact same color as previous.

I agree...Jetstream Blue would look great on the Camaro! I hear that it is now discontinued on the Vette.
