How does Silver w/black ZL1 look in person

I haven't seen one in person yet. I am trying to choose between a couple nearby options that are in the same price range.

Silver with black wheels and a sun roof verses crystal red with alloy wheels and no sun roof. I have seen the crystal red one and it looks really good, but no sun roof. Not a deal breaker I guess.

On the other hand silver an black must look like a beast.

Silver to me is a bland, boring color, I'm not a fan. Summit White, Black, Blu-ray, Victory Red and Inferno Orange are the only colors I'd consider...

They said no sunroof equipped Camaros have more headroom so if I had to choose its be the CRT.

They are all sharp. One color is'nt better than the other, pick what you like.
One thing to keep in mind though is that the body style makes the rear quarter and door look like they are two different colors. Some colors are worst than others, Silver is one of the worst.

I know they are all sharp. I just haven't had a chance to see the silver with black wheels besides pictures.

What do you think about the alloy wheels on the CRT? I tend to like the silver one because of the contrast.

i hate to say it here, but the Shelby GT500 looks razor sharp in silver with black stripes ... i think GM did a great job with the color options ... strictly a personal choice ... just make sure it's something you can live with in the long run

I am leaning toward the silver. I like the look and its an easy to maintain color.

Has anyone added a stripe kit to the ZL1?

Picking a color of the car is like picking a woman.It is all in the eyes of the behol:flag2:der.lol.Pick the color you want deep down.You are the one driving it.As for stripes and this is only for me but painting the stripe was the way to go.
