I'm with you RallySport! Til i see a med blue (similar to the Bright Blue used on 09vettes)I will keep putting the money into my 67. I would have bit the bullet and bought a ABM SS, but held out for a Z and now they dropped the color. Fbod mentioned cost to develop colors, but the Bright Blue was already developed for the vette. Might be me, but hard to believe more people want synergy green then blue. That green would grow old on me, but the blue is a classic to the gen 1's.

def!!! the 2012 lookd like its straight from a $12,000 cobalt...u dont think?

i like the original bc its more unique i guess...

:word:
It is so freaking nice in person
and I was one of the skeptical people before seeing it.
It looks black until the sun hits it just right.

I'm gonna be a jerk for a moment....please temporarily forget that it's me posting:

Unless you've seen either the ZL1 or the 45th in person. You have very little room to criticize the appearance of these cars. As with all Camaros, pictures do them little justice, and the designs for both require even more attention when photographing.

So...if you haven't seen it in person -- withhold judgement (and some of the more 'colorful' comments) until you do.

As far as the steering wheel...some of you need your eyes checked. There's just no other way to say it. The bow tie on the front is about as "generic" as you can take the description of the wheel. And even that has a reason for being there. Again...withhold your judgement until you see it in person - I wasn't a fan and now I am. It doesn't "smack you in the face" like it does in pictures.

To those who HAVE seen the cars in person, and don't like them...what's wrong with you?!?!?! (Okay, just kidding...continued below)

If you have seen it and still don't care for it - that's perfectly alright. I just think there are a few less of this sort of person than those who love 'em. ;)

have to agree with that. I saw them in person. The 45th looks great!. paint looks great, new spoiler and wheels look good. New dash looks much better.

We don't even know that. It was nothing more than a rumor generated by a magazine....

I really like how refined and understated the stripe package is (If anybody hasn't noticed the "45" in the red portion of the hood stripe....go back and look REAL close)...but the Red-white-blue interior treatment is my favorite part of that car!!! :headbang:

And anyone notice how they've integrated a modern take on the old Red/White/Blue Camaro badge into the 45th?

yes, i noticed that. very subtle.

I'm pretty sold on the 45th anniversary package...but when will we know how much it will cost to add on?

(Edit: didn't realize I just did a thread necro...whoops.)
