Yesterday I went to the dealer to take a close look at my dream car in rally yellow. But when I reached there, the unexpected happened…..

I saw a victory red 2SS/RS standing in bride in the middle of the show room with dark gray stripe package, which got me really confused.

Now that I have the money to buy the car, I don’t know which color to choose…. It’s like a war in my head “Victory Red vs. Rally Yellow”

Your input and advice is appreciated

I really can't help you with your selection but I must say this pic is awsome! I love the way you can see the opposing car in the headlights! Very cool! You have a tough decision, all the color offerings on this 5th gen look great to
me! I heard that the yellow attracts bugs but the red attracts women, hmm.....

Which one do you think will be worth more when you decide to sell it, if this doesn't make a difference, your in for a time trying to figure out which color you like. Now I am not saying 1 will be worth more than the other because of the package, I am saying which 1 is worth more to you.

I was sort of in the same boat, I really liked the yellow, but I've always been a fan of red cars. I decided on red for two reasons: A) if I got yellow many people would refer to it as "Bumblebee", which I didn't really want it to be known as. B) yellow draws a lot of attention; I felt it would be a bit flashy for me down the road. I decided if I was leasing the car for 2-3 years I'd probably have gone yellow, but since I may have it for much longer I'd go with a slightly tamer red.

Just my $.02

I love at picture---I'm in the same boat also.
I sold my 02 SS last week and now the wait begins for a 2011 SS/RS, but what color?
IOM
RY
SW
VR

I went thru this.. I ended up getting the yellow one like I originally wanted. I always wanted bubmlebee...

It was the other people who where starting put put their opinions in, like family, that started the confusion.

Then there will be the auto vs manual..

The sunroof or no sunroof..

Where to put the front plate...

It never ends..

After you buy it, it will be , leave it stock or hop it up....
Everyone will try to get you to change the exhaust !!

There are a lot of confusions when you buy your new camaro !!!

I have to say this one thing..

Inspect your paint and stripes very closely before you drive the car home.

Mine had some defects that I didn't find until I got home and the newness wore off.

I don't know if anyone have, but they could has.

You will like either one, but both colors are cop magnets.

[BearDownSS]

I'd go with the red one. Red and Aqua blue were the other colors I debated with, but I ended up choosing IOM either way, you can't go wrong

[runich]

Have you seen the Red Jewel in person yet? It's the BEST color! I may be a little biased though

No seriously, there's not a bad color for this car. If you are interested in a color make sure you have seen it in person before buying!!!

very true, especially where I live as yellow is not very common in the streets

Thank you guys for all the insights.

Both colors are amazing, and both colors are driving me crazy.

I love the yellow, and I love the Bumblebee image. But its too flashy and if I decide to sell it, I know I would have some difficulties.

Red is a new love, good elegant looking and without the over flashy look. It will be an easer car to sell in the future (if I ever wanted to).

I’m seeing the dealer over the weekend to take a look at both in their backyard.

I’ll update you guys… but till then I will be hallucinating Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red, Yellow, Red,

[TJ91]

honestly, the yellow will probably be easier to sell because of Transformers. However, Ry seems to be a little pale...i say VR with SIM stripes
VR is gorgous btw and ive only seen one red Camaro in person
