confused as hell about 2012 colors and possible ZL1 colors?

[2cnd chance]

IMO Medium and bright colors look best due to all the black on the car. It just needs the contrast.

Man... a mustang over a camaro or a challenger. At least it is one up form a honda. You must be mad at choice of colors.

After the announcement of an automatic, this car was a go. Now with the color choices, I am back to 'wait and see.'

If not wanting to spend $70,000 on a car that I don't like the color of makes me 'not a true chevy fan,' then I guess I am guilty as charged.

I really hope GM has something up its sleeve, so I am optimistically waiting.

You're running out of colors.

Im trying to send this from my iphone but you said what i am trying to say.
I dont want and will not pay $50k for a car i do not like or can settle on the color. When i was in my 20's id settle on a iroc z of any color.
While the color choices are not a whole lot different than from
1987 colors red, black, white, and yellow; if i cant settle on the final color i would rather settle for a two year old abm that i could look at for the next
5 years at min.

Agreed. I'm already checking AutoTrader.com for a used 2010 ABM...just in case.

I come to think that they don't want to give us those colors because it would look like sh** with the red leather stitching... isnt that going to be standard on the ZL1?

I WANT MY BLUE

Heck, for all we know there very well may be something up Chevy's sleeve.

Yup, this is totally where I have evolved to. I was on that initially dissed the steering wheel. Now I don't care if it's made of wood. I was also one that lamented the loss of a good blue. Now, I just think any color would look fantastic. (I know red and white do.). I feel slightly sorry for those still in complaint mode...they certainly aren't enjoying this whole process as much as those that are already "all in."

Exactly. In a perfect world, I'd prefer a few more color choices including a nice blue, but if the ZL1 is only available in the current six colors, I'll be happy with a red or a white ZL1.

Not sure what the sales numbers are on the Synergy Green Camaro, but my mother who's 68 loves the color. If anything it sure does draw attention to the Camaro. It will be missed.

The word I have is that xirallic is back in production at another plant ahead of original date forecasted. Don't have direct contact but my friend is the national salesmen for a company that competes againest them so the info does have merit. Let's hope we see some new color palettes soon....

Oh, I'm "all in" for dang sure.

The CGM with the black pieces would just have been killer. Maybe they still will be. If not, I will settle for a carbon flash and be ecstatic, or even a nice shiny black beast of immense ferocity.

I do have a Darth Vader costume, and it would be choice to pull up somewhere in my ZL1, get out and watch the people's faces.

I am betting though that there will be more options than we know of at this point.

Does not matter about the interior. The interior on the ZL1 is black and theres not an option for another color so the inside would match anything you decided to paint on the outside as black goes with anything. Which is one plus I might say.
