What a great post! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I think the fangs are a main culprit and the rest just flows from there. Black belt, body color belt, flowtie position etc are minor details when compared to the fangs as there is no other car i am aware of that has anything close to this type of styling theme for a sports car. And the reason a body colored belt may look better to many is that it actually down plays the fangs. While black privides more accent to them (except on a black car of course). Some said there is something missing in the blue renders and i agree: change is missing. It looks like a refersh of the present design (which hasnt sold well from a get go) vs a design which would differentiate the look and "feel" of the refresh and hopefully score more sales. Folks like it (and so do i) as it looks and feels familiar and safe. Not because it differentiates from what we have today. GM is well aware of pushing the envelope and they did it on purpose since they wanted a polarizing design for the SS. Why i am not sure but apparently it was a design target. This thread is proof theyve accomplished it. The only problem is that they may have over achieved. But only the market will answer this question reliably. Or maybe not because sales numbers dont break down into sub models. Ps to the rendering artist: if it is possible pls insert a black belt with a flowtie on it. I would really like to see what it would look like with fingers vs fangs. Thanks in advance! Last edited by TrackClub; 04-12-2018 at 11:37 PM. Reason: Added last 2 sentences |

Do they really think offering it only 7 colors is going to help? 4 of which are black or red?

But I don’t disagree with you. It’d be nice if they had a full color scope to chose from (red/blue/green/yellow/orange) but unfortunately since they share the same bays as the caddys there’s a limitation. Look on the bright side... At least they don’t do colors for sports cars the same way they do them for luxury cars. 15 colors and all of them except one are a different style/shade of black, grey, or white with either one blue or one red color. Could always be worse.

Don't come out and label everyone that doesn't like it as a hater. If he can't take criticism without getting butthurt then he has the wrong job. |

That is a valid complaint about GM across the board. The color choices are rather limited in comparison to the competition. It is just a bad deal all around. People attacked him personally & only seeing a small part of conversations changes the meaning a bit. Not defending either side, but probably a good case as to why people like Al are typically not accessible to the public. |

Pulling stuff out of his personal FB page totally out of context and trying to make something out of one word is complete bullshit. He's taking the criticism just fine, but the personal attacks, name calling and labeling the team as complete idiots is hating and not criticism. Thay should put it in context for you. Simple as that. |
