Victory red or Orange with out stripes and no black cars for me...yuck!

No offense to anyone, but white, black, red & silver or grey are true sports car colors to me. I do not care for the green, orange, yellow, blue or maroon.

Yellow!

Dont like it and in my experience looking at used cars they are normally priced lower. Which is good I guess if you like Yellow.

You failed to mention the Grinch Christmas Parade...which the SGM is perfect for.

While I agree with the sports car analogy - the Camaro is NOT a sports car, it is a Muscle Car/pony car. Muscle cars have always been bright colors with blaring stripes or Graphics, cartoon characters and fun slogans. GTO, Mustang, Cuda, Challenger, 4-4-2, and Camaro...All came in out-there colors and trim packages. Orbit Orange, Sublime green, Daytona Yellow, Apolo White, Plum Crazy, Furious Fucia, Moulan Rouge, Poppy Red, Callypso Coral, Rally Green, Highland Green, Go-Banana yellow, Go Mango orange, Vitamin C Orange, Sassy Grass Green, Hugger Orange...you get the point. These colors were available for all of the muscle car/pony car years.

Sports cars have always been (traditionally) lightweight, nimble, imported, 4 and 6-cylinder cars with two seats. MG, Triumph, Healy, Austin, Porsche, Riley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Lotus to name a few.

Here is a Rally Green Camaro from a year you may recognize:

Everyone favors their own (No Shit) Why dont you ask something important like Whats your favorite breakfast cereal ?

ROD_SS · 09-29-2011, 04:05 PM

yellow and green

I'm a flashy guy, so I prefer the bright colors on any sports car; hence Rally Yellow. As for the 5th gen, I have not seen a color I don't like the car in. As for one I would never own, I would have to say BLACK. Not because I don't think it looks fantastic, but I am too much of a perfectionist to deal with the upkeep. I get anxiety trying to keep this car clean. Black would throw me over the edge with my OCD.

Any colors cool its just what fits your taste best. Everyone will think there color is the best, which is acceptable

Obzen · 09-29-2011, 05:54 PM

I'm surprised we made it 5 pages without any arguments.

By the way. It's all about the fruity pebbles.

M_Knife_Shamylan · 09-29-2011, 06:11 PM

I own a black one, but if I were to buy another, I wouldn't go black again

This is my second black vehicle (still own the first) and I just can't seem to learn that it is a pain.

If I get another it will be either synergy or orange. Saw the orange today at a dealer and it looks WAY better than in pictures.

Why so many haters on Yellow? That was one of the reasons I bought the car. I truly don't know what color I would have gotten if Yellow wasn't available...not even 100% sure I would have bought it at all. I think it looks fabulous on the 5th Gen...makes it really stand out.

To answer the original question of the post, I would say Silver only because every car on the road seems to be Silver.
