First pic its obvious the passenger is eating a quarter pounder, Now why didn't the top Brass roll up to D.C. last week in one of these? Would have been great to let Congress and Michael Moore know they are building great product designed by Aussies and built in Canada.

Did the guys in the Camaro's even say hey or nod/wave?? I woulda made them roll the window down and tell em to drop it in 3rd and see what the 4200lb pig(with adults) would do I bet those guys get revved on all day while logging data by all kinds of guys in everything. I guess the ECU's arent finished if they are still doing data logging

ug...I was almost decided upon silver until i seeing black in these shots!
I don't see very many people express their opinion on silver...so, please anyone tell me what they think of the silver! Yay, or Nay?
The only reason I'm against black is just that it shows dirt so easily, it takes a lot of work to keep it looking good.

Either I'm colorblind, or Red Jewel Tint looks very purple without sunlight.

I love the silver. I have a silver one ordered but am changing it to victory red. My 2SS/RS is going to be a weekend driver only and stay parked and covered in my garage until the weekend. My wife said if that is what I plan to do with it I should get a more fun and vibrant color so I am changing to red. I still really like the silver. I saw a Traverse in that color. It really helps to go to your closest chevy dealer and look at every color. They have em all. I did it.

The silver ice metallic reminds me of looking at the silver color thru a piece of ice! It is really beautiful. Perhaps someone that has seen the silver ice in person can give a better description.

If all else fails, think about leasing your first camaro until you have a chance to see them all. Then when you are ready to own, they will have all the options out and maybe even the Z. Most banks will give you a lease option. You don't have to NOT lease just because GM won't do it anymore. Check it out.

just go to your local dealer and check out the new Impala. it has that same Red Jewel Tintcoat. that way you can see it in the sun, at night, in the rain, etc.

when they're pleading for money to save the American industry, and CAFE is screaming at them to make more efficient vehicles, that wouldn't've been the smartest choice... but it would've looked awesome!

I ordered silver ice metallic, plan to add the black rally stripes to it as well.

Overall, I thought silver was the best color since that is what the concept was debut in, plus the interior accent panels will match better than any other color as well as the ambient lighting being a light shade of blue.

I changed my mind three times (red jewel to silver to red back to silver) mainly due to the fact I'll drive it daily and what I mentioned earlier.

I still think the overall linesof the car are best on silver and I'll fall back again on the concept...that is the color the car was designed around and think (my opinion), will be the best overall color for making the car flow best!

Now...I love the black and red, even the darker blue and would love to have any of those but silver will in my opinion, look best overall when looking at everything.

My 2 cents...

hey legend, i completely agree with what you just said. I ordered mine with the Silver Ice Metallic as well. Nothing against anyone who has ordered other colors but i think Legend makes a great point.

By the way... I saw a new black Camaro turning opposite of me and I almost ran off the road trying to get a good look. The body style is amazing....
