How do Black or White 1LE look in person - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

They both looks awesome in person. You have a tough choice ahead of you.

/thread LOL

I AM a little partial to the white :P

White--period :-)

I had a 2010 black SS, and wanted white for the 1LE.
Depending on your environment, white is likely easier to keep looking good.
Pollen, swirls and paint chips stand out on a black car.
Tar & oil stands out on white.
Then there's the wrap...

The white 1LE is lighter in color than the black 1LE. As far as my preference, I have only owned one non-black car in the last 20 years!

They're all good.

I went with white too, but seriously considered black. In the end, it was too blacked out for me though I would likely have gotten black paint if they offered the 10 spokes in polished aluminum or even titanium grey. Black paint is also harder to maintain.... but 1 thing I didn't consider getting white is the black plastic under the paint. So, paint chips show real easy on the white bumper:( If you get white, set aside extra $ for a clear-bra and start looking for a good installer in your area.

You can't really go wrong either way. Both are awesome and have trade offs relative to one another.

looks like djnice went with a SIM ZL1 =) I love the look of the car in Black, but I would go with White. Black? White? Silver is a good compromise =)

OptimusPlez · 05-09-2013, 11:45 PM

Tough decision. All colors have their merits. I didn't have options when I bought one a month ago. Only one in Washington state that was for sale and it was black. It is nice to have options. You can't go wrong either way.

I just saw a black 1LE last week around sunset. My goodness the thing looked sweet. Had me thinking maybe I should trade my SGM SS for an all black 1LE. Was pondering a 2014 with recaros. I hAve only owned black cars prior to now. Trying to stay out of this forum.

Bosse'sBoss · 05-13-2013, 08:36 PM

Black it looks much better in person than in pictures. Very Great looking Camaro!!

1BadLE · 05-14-2013, 12:44 AM

its totally an opinion thing, they both look great as you can see.

Segsy1LE · 05-15-2013, 01:05 PM

I've had a white car before, and it showed dirt too, and tar, and road grime... pick your poison because you're going to be washing the thing either way, and they both look good. My advice is to just pick whichever one YOU prefer, and enjoy!

Cam1LE · 05-15-2013, 02:09 PM

I think the 1LE looks great in any color but I'm most fond of my black one
