i saw a white G8 today and thought that the color looked awesome. is this the same white that they will be using on the camaro? i remember looking on the pontiac website a while ago and it has a different name, does anyone know how the pontiac white and summit white compare?

I think the G8's are hot white...

White was my first choice but there was no way I would have been able to wait til July to order

My dealer just told me I can order white end of this month or early May- I hope he's right.

I used to have a white Trans Am. It was OK but it was hard to keep clean, and someone commented it looked like a pimpmobile in white, which turned me off to that color ever since.

They should have made a pearl white! That would have rocked!

the summit white is the same color as on the HHR. btw, any type of metallic or pearl in a sports car white is just wrong. if you want your car to look like a lexus, go get a lexus.

btw btw, I changed my priority # today to stay in the system and change to summit white the 1st day the Workbench says it is available. dropping from #1 to # ???

I dont know if it's just me, but I think the Camaro looks great in white with the black door handles, mirrors and spoiler. I don't know why, but to me it just looks cool

i agree that pearl white probably wouldn't work on camaro.
the cops where i live have a bunch of white chargers, and i also white challengers and mustangs. I think that white works well with all of the new/retro cars.

Thats the color I want. White, black hood, blacked out tail lights.

I'm just a tad bit too anxious, SWHCPA, but I definitely was tempted to wait and get the Summit with IOM stripes. Awesome combo, but then too, I've never owned a black car before, so.....
