choosing the right color - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

smbluelimited05 · 06-08-2009, 10:26 PM

I'm thinking about ordering my camaro next month but, I have a problem choosing a color. I round the color choices between RJT, CGM, IBM, or IOM. I don't really want a color like IOM, because every1 is ordering it. The local dealership in my town has 2 IOM and 1 VR ordered for customers already. I'm really having a heard time making an decision. I have really thought about CGM or RJT more. Thanks.

Do you really need help picking a color??? This is going to be bad. I ordered black, I was my car like clock work and work for hours on it, black looks fantastic clean. Just pick your own color

If you have really thought about CGM or RJT - you should pick
one of the two then.

Have you seen them in person?
I have seen the following in person: IOM, Black, yellow, red, and
SIM. IOM, yellow, and SIM look WAY better in person.

Good luck w/your decision.

I forgot to post that I'm trying to stay away from colors i've had in the past. I had black, blue , brite red, silver, white and yellow.

smbluelimited05 · 06-08-2009, 10:34 PM

no, i haven't

Look into RJT. my two cents

smbluelimited05 · 06-08-2009, 10:35 PM

i've seen SIM, on and LT/RS

The only caution about RJT is that, the way it dries on the polyurethane components is more glossy. So this can cause it to look different.

Where CGM is more stealth and does not stick out as much in the transition.

Plus RJT of course costs more.

Hard choice no matter what color.

RJT is the best color you listed for sure. Get that with the beige interior and you will have a great color combo. It will probably be the least ordered color as well if you are into that type of thing.

Also think about the color/stripe combo(should you pursue this route)..

Sounds like it should be easy then

smbluelimited05 · 06-08-2009, 10:51 PM

My uncle had an 1970 Chevelle SS454, with a deep red with White strips. I've thought about doing that combo decaded to his memory.

I was dead set on IOM until I saw the ABM. Wow!

smbluelimited05 · 06-08-2009, 11:24 PM

Really, my wife thought about that color for herself
