Go back onto Camaro5 and try and find the colour wheels that showed the popularity of the various colours. I'm 99% sure that black, white, and silver, were always the top 3 choices. The others were usually mixed in popularity. Dark grey did fairly well, and I think 'normal' red and yellow did too. I can't remember the specifics on the red tint coats, dark blues, orange, or green. I do know that people have been begging GM for years to offer a bright/medium blue and they got their wish.

But the general trend is that GM is offering colours that they know to be popular. Chances are, there are at least 2 choices available that almost every single buyer would be happy with. They could offer 30 colours and there would still be people that would be unhappy that the particular colour+shade+paint type that they want isn't available.

Also ... if you want something in particular, it helps if you actually say what it is that you want. A general 'GM is stupid' isn't going to make a gold or lime green metallic or brown tintcoat (or whatever else) Camaro happen when GM inevitably tweaks the colour lineup in the coming model years.
