RS and SS spoiler are the same. Thought I had read that the synergy SE car would have a high-wing spoiler, but guess the decided against that.

Actually Mulsanne Blue has more green in it vs ABM.

I still believe both new colors are retreads of Camaros gone by. And having owned Citrus Green, I wouldn't buy Synergy Green. I'm no marketing genius, but I view it as a bad move on GM's part. Consumers will have a lot of fun when they try to resell or trade-in.

When i get my SS and i see a V6 on the road im just gona laugh.
The V6's will flood the market just like what happend to the mustangs when they completely redid their bodystyle.
And this green car isnt helping unfortunately.
Wow, lots of V6 hate out there, even though the V6 can still stomp about any car in its price bracket... It's still a Camaro peeps, don't be the d bag that thinks he is tough sh** cuz you have 2 more cylinders. Another fact for ya: This V6 has more power than some older V8 Camaros....

Entirely different shade of green, though I still don't like this that much. On an unrelated note: whats up with barely anyone offering green on their vehicles these days (a nice forest green-ish shade would be good)?

You're right, they look bigger, but with the design of the polished 19's.

I think GM made a bad decision on this one. Sure, there will be a few sales....but, I personally think offering it on teh SS models too (c'mon...it's only a front facia that has to be painted too!) would have been a much wiser decision.
I agree with you Tag, it should have been offered on the SS. Perhaps 1SS only so they could sell more of those as they too are lacking.

So sad can't be gotten stock with a V8 (real muscle) . . . saw the synergy green from SEMA . . . loved the color on the 2010 Camaro! Would have waited and bought it . . . until I find out there would be no stock V8 2SS !!!!! What the...?

Does GM need another new CEO to figure out that if you want to increase your sales . . . well, simply build more of what people really want to buy!

Seriously, how hard would it have been to add a V8 option in synergy green? Expand the factory? No! Build an additional Synergy Green V8 specific manufacturing line? No! Pay more in painting costs? No! Reprogram an existing dedicated build line? No!

Let's see . . . what would it cost extra to offer the Synergy Green in a V8? We all watched the Ultimate Factory video . . . and there are no model specific paint lines . . . different colors painted one right after the other in the same . . . regardless of model options . . . what would be the additional manufacturing and engineering and fiscal plant costs to add a V8 option to build a synergy green cars and thereby give more customers what they want, sell more cars, and increase profits? Nothing! $0 Nada! Zilch!

But I bet the white collar geniuses at the top get a 2009 bonus from our tax dollars which kept GM open!

Wow! Does not take an engineer to figure out they could sell even more of the synergy green cars if it was more than a 6 cylinder choice!

Come on . . . get your head out of it GM white collars . . . before you have to sell out us to KIA!

Caaallllmm dooooowwwwwn! GM is doing quite well for itself now that it's out of bankruptcy and they've already announced that they're making a lot more than they thought they would on the Camaro.

easy there tiger no need to bash my company because they arent making the car you want.. NOT EVERY ONE WANTS THE GREEN IN V8 you have to look at the market for what needs to sell and start from there then open it to the SS ...

AS WE ALL KNOW not every color was even available for the SS model until 6-7 months after production started. but as stated dont bash my company because you are butt hurt about the car not being an SS or cause you think you paid so much in taxes to us...

So much hate and drama over a color. I personally don't care for a green car and there are lots of people out there that probably don't care about SW or IOM, hence the beauty of having a choice. Plain and simple, if you don't like the green then don't buy it. I do feel like GM should have offered Synergy Green in a V8 model, either 1SS or 2SS.

well said. And if the current SG model sells well enough, maybe they WILL put it on an SS
