I understand. But I have owned 2 white cars. I don't mind keeping them clean. The black has to be washed in a shaded place, shows dust right away, sap, etc. I hate black. White can be washed in the summer sun, doesn't show water spots, etc.

When I WAS going to buy an 09 BMW 135i, I was 100% sure of getting it in Alpine White with Coral red leather with gray poplar interior trim.

With the SS Camaro I actually want a bright orange, I am not sure I will like the Inferno Orange, I saw it on a Colorado and wasn't crazy about it. Maybe it will look better on the Camaro without all the black plastic that the Colorado had.

Rally Yellow is WAY TOO bright for me.

So its Inferno or White IF the white comes out b4 July 09. I want to buy a new SS/RS LS3 around May 09.

YES! YES! YES!
my favorite car was my white IROC-Z.
love to see someone photoshop it, and color in the door handles, spoiler, and mirrors. I'm not sure white is great on this car ...yet. Hope so.

Actually, as someone else pointed out, the front bumper corner gives it away as an SS. The cheekbone and jawbone (for lack of better terms) stick out where they don't exist on the LS/LT.

I think its funny that the car isn't even launched yet and we can tell the difference between the production pieces that determine SS vs V6 even though the car has no SS logos... lol

and yeah, that's a good catch about the front bumper.

I'm not sure if it's funny or sad that we all know so much about a car that we can't even put in our own garages yet.

After looking at that side shot of the wheels in motion, I'm going to have to get the RS package on my LT. The wheels look good when they're spinning.

I think the rears on the SS are 14.5", a half inch bigger, so it would make a little sense, but it could be the camera angle is exascerbating the difference in sizes too.

looking at it in white, from the side, it needs a bigger spoiler. is that the production spoiler? too much slope at the rear.

Hey All I have been checking out this site the past 6 months every day while at work. Most of you have a lot of good info, so i never figured to chime in. But i saw a question on the mirrors being black and if they will pait them. Well i bought my 98 Z-28 in october of 97. It's white with black t-tops and black mirrors. Most white camaros i have seen are black t-tops with white mirrors I have not seen many in my trim style. So idk but i bet that they will make them in both all white and white with the black mirrors, handles and lip. And yes that is La jolla cause of the street signs and all the high end cars in the pics. I lived in san diego untill the past year.:flag2:
