True...also, computer monitors can be deceiving unless you're into photography and have had your monitor calibrated.
I do have to say though, I pulled it up on my TV (which was ISF calibrated) and after looking at it at the dealership I'd have to say the first one looks more like it. It is definitely more red than I'd like but I might be able to live with it. The red, black, and blue sports cars have been done to death. I'm tired of seeing the silver camaro (also my room-mate has a silver charger). I think with some aftermarket black stripes all the way down it'll look bad ass.

black or grey stripes will look awesome on IOM

I would agree, the inferno orange is not horrible, I just think there are far better colors of orange out there... Maybe next year

By the way. The guy that greeted me at the pontiac was so quick to come up and introduce himself, then he couldn't get away fast enough once I said I already ordered the camaro.

Then he came back (after talking to his manager probably) and tried some lame line like "you can get 2 solstices for the price of the camaro".

I'm sorry, but no self respecting guy under the age of 60 would ever drive one.

Did you tell him that you'd rather have all 4 seats in the same car?

I like the color personally, traveled 40 mile 1 way just to make sure it was the one for me on a similar solstice.Going to look for my own aftermarket stripe package though..gloss black, not the flat they are showing

I think flat black will look good once you clear coat over it. All they have shown so far is grey...no black.

I would. Nearly got one instead of the Cobalt.

From what I've heard all the stripe colors are gloss.
