if I had to guess.... the dude was a very, VERY casual car show attendee and had no clue.... he was probably fresh from the mustang booth where they were still crowing about their " revolutionary" new IRS on the Mustang....

Well.. until the Z28 !
I definitely love the look of this trim of the car. It's amazing how such small changes can make such a big difference in appearance.

Lol, I believe it. Same thing happens at the NY Auto Show. They hire attractive females, then have them memorize a script and recite it all day long, hoping to attract more people over to a car because of the model that's talking about it. I'd personally rather see Big AL O up there talking about the car lol, at least I know he'd have the right answers to my questions.

I'm with you. I really don't like the satin graphite on the diffuser or splitter, particularly with a satin black hood, mirrors and spoiler.

Matching up the lower body areas with the wheel finish, I guess.

I'm already getting exciting thinking about adding additional aero mods to this car. I may fab up my own if Aero Sport Concepts doesn't come out with something like this in the next year. Splitter extension, Wicker bill extension, diffuser, maybe a belly pan!

You are complaining about her when 95% of the salespeople at the dealership will know less about the 1LE and Camaros in general? At least she did her job......which is more than i can say for some of the dealership folks! And to the Big Al comment, you may want him to do that job, but I promises he does not!

In the meantime, look how nice dat a$$ looks with the wide rubber in the back

I am glad they made the rear diffuser shorter on the Gen 6 like it was on the pre-2014 Gen 5s. Never liked the taller diffuser.

The spoiler, diffuser, and wheels are all similar graphite finishes, while the mirrors and hood wrap are black.

Actually the splitter, wheels and diffuser are satin graphite.

The hood, mirrors and spoiler are satin black...I like the contrast of the two colors.

I was standing next to the car after the preview in Detroit...with respect, the spoiler was also that graphite color.
At least it was on the SS model.

May have been the lighting, the spoiler is satin black according to the GM press release, and in all the pictures I have seen?

I would be okay if the spoiler was graphite too, but then the mirrors should be too...the hood can stay black regardless.

Why can't we post more than one attachment? Anyway, here is a close up....the colors are close, but they are not the same color...satin graphite and satin black are very similar.

lighting, probably...I want to guarantee you it's not black. But I'll confirm before I do that...hate the taste of feet...

Also noticed the little trim pieces below the lower LED's on the SS 1LE are not chrome, but the satin graphite as well...nice touch.
