Just bought a 2013 1LE

Greetings, my name is Gabe. I just picked up a used 2013 Camaro SS 1LE as my daily driver. I'm honestly not sure what the color is called. I've been looking for this body style with the right options (or lack there of) for about 6 months, and I found it. What an amazing machine and the sound....

I moved here from Phoenix in March with nothing but my Mini Cooper S and my dog, so I'm still very much new to the Pacific Northwest. I'm huge into the track scene, and do not mind car shows and cruises. I look forward to learning the car and meeting everyone.

Looks Blue Ray Metallic to me, hard to tell. Do you have the NPP exhaust? Recaro's, etc. Looks sweet fosho.

agree, it looks like Blue Ray Metallic,you can verify by looking under the trunk mat (drivers side) at the "service parts identification" label. look for code GXH

you will enjoy the car for sure

Verified, Blue Ray Metallic. Welcome!

You will love the color until you have to pay for it. Get the front end coated with 5 layers of Ceramic asap. Cekate, CQuartz, Diamond Pro etc. You can DIY for under $100.

Thank you for the welcomes and info. My first car was a '95 Z28, so I'm looking forward to have a Chevrolet V8 again. Luckily I have a wholesale deal available for clearmask, so that will be a first "mod". I doubt these are Recaro's, and I'm unsure of the exhaust. I plan on replacing it with something louder anyway, so I'm not worried about that. I'm pretty sure the only luxury items on it is the MyLink system and back up camera & sensors. I'm a no frills kind of guy. I see there is a Toys for Tots cruise event coming up. Is this an open invite event as long as I bring toys to donate?

Take a picture of the rear end, we can tell you what exhaust then. If you like it louder all the time there is a fuse we can tell you to remove in the trunk fuse box and it will be loud all the time.

Welcome to the 5th Gen club. If you like cruising around and hanging out, check out Columbia River Camaro Club. I live in Oregon City, hope to see you around. The car looks bad ass.

Awesome! That's what I'm looking for. I went to The Ridge already with my friends at AR Auto. Gorgeous track. I did a lot of DE's in Arizona, and worked race control for NASA-AZ for many many years. I'm excited to get involved here. I can't wait to enjoy the car on track instead of just staring at it

I moved to the PNW from the Phoenix area too. What part of town did you live in? Were you familiar with the Arizona All Gens Camaro Club?

I was not. I had a RX8, '95 M3, and Mini Cooper S before this. What brought you here?
