OFFICIAL Gray and Red for 2012 Camaro is... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

The new OFFICIAL Metallic Red is going to be Crystal Claret (GBE)

The new OFFICIAL Gray will be called Ashen Gray (GLJ)

Description of Ashen Gray from fbodfather:

Quote:

Ashen Gray - at least to me - has more 'gold' in it versus 'blue' that was found in Cyber Gray - it's a tad darker, perhaps - but VERY rich looking. It's my sense that it highlights the body contours more.....and the creased edges.......

Limited availability to start.

what does the grey look like?

rolnslo · 10-06-2011, 01:27 PM

GBE is the Crystal Red used on the Corvette and Cadillac.

GLJ appears to be a new grey this year. No cross-reference available for WA810T for years prior to 2012.

EDIT: I think this is the correct color shown on the Buick Regal GS...

I don't know, but I can't wait to see both on a new Camaro!

greenisgood · 10-06-2011, 01:36 PM

I'm glad there's more colors, but what a horrible name for the gray. Isn't ashen gray the color you would turn shortly before dieing?

Jeffm · 10-06-2011, 01:41 PM

Thats an awesome grey color if thats it

panther2469 · 10-06-2011, 01:42 PM

Thanks anna

v6 · 10-06-2011, 02:01 PM

oh yay, right after i order my 45th the new grey comes out. I originally wanted cyber grey..

f5journal · 10-06-2011, 02:08 PM

Awesome timing...I just asked I guy at work today about his red Cadillac SUV. He said Crystal Red. I thought it would be a good color for Camaro

Russell James · 10-06-2011, 02:09 PM

If that's the same as the '12 Regal - Smokey Gray Metallic - I like

.

RichGreene · 10-06-2011, 02:21 PM

That red is HOT, If I was ordering a new one thatd be my color.

Something is up with this chart. The Cyber Gray looks blue and the Ashen Gray looks like Cyber Gray.
