If you can wait a couple weeks to make a decision I'll have my replacement car for the one with bad Mosaic Black paint. If that car is good Mosaic Black. If it has problems Garnet Red.

A freshly washed Garnet Red in Good/Bright sunlight might be the prettiest color I have ever seen on a car in my life... I ordered it seeing only pictures and videos, but seeing it in person blew me away... But, color is a personal choice... so go with whatever combo you want... Good luck.

I couldn't agree more! It has a personality of its own. Looks beautiful in the sun, looks real sexy.

So you're basically saying all black cars look alike?



In all honesty, if I had a dime for every red sports car I've seen, I'd have… at least like $10. It's not exactly super original too. I wish Chevy would offer up some fun colors besides Hyper Blue, but apparently 50 shades of grey sells well.

I agree with you on just about everything there. the only thing that kept me from going for it over red hot was how it looks like a burgundy/maroon color every other time where there is no direct sunlight, which is too soft of a color for an aggressive car in my opinion. that's why I went the the hot red: red hot

hey, don't discriminate against my red head, gingers have souls too!


I know its not original, but its not common on Camaros. most Camaros out there are black and grey.

plus, as you mentioned, red sports car sure may be a bit common, but come on, black? if I had a Penny for every black car, sports car or soccermom car, that I have seen, I would be a millionaire. pull-me-over red isn't that common

I have never been into any kind of red car. But the Garnet Red I could probably live with. Has to be less maintenance then my Black Camaro..

Mosiac Black here. No problems at all with the paint (at least I haven't found any). Please note my build date. I think the paint problems were the earlier builds.

I've already done it in December. Garnet Red with gloss back wheels with red stripe. Couldn't be happier. Black is outstanding, but you've got to wash it every other day.
