I have spent hours upon hours learning about this car and my salesperson is the dumbest person I have ever met so he was not helpful in the entire process of ordering my car. He assured me he ordered black wheels with the RS package not dark silver. At least now I know not to pursue anything at my dealership. (I'm a girl by the way)
Thanks!

Don't worry about it. Don't let a bunch of morons on this website drive you away. There are a lot of nicer morons on here that can help you out in a nicer way..

I like midnight silver. I may go to black way down the road but wasn't paying the dealer asking 5k more for the 21's

RS with polished 20's

Now that's just ignorant...

I was just like her, I like the RS package's display of the dark 'MS' wheels. BUT once, I came online and saw hundreds of pics of RS wheels, I knew that the site was a little off. However, I saw the RS wheels in person and they DO look darker than they do in pictures posted on this site. I LOVE THE MS wheels, and I was happy to see that they were that dark. I really thought they would be a lighter shade.

Also MSs but pics don't do them justice.

I fail to see what you're getting at here. You say that you didn't realize they looked different until you happened to see real pictures of them. Well, she apparently never saw real pictures of them so why should she have researched? Usually, if you see something on the company's own site you tend to think it's the real deal.....

Unless you were just confused as to my wording. Perhaps it should have read more like this:

"Why research an issue that you are unaware exists....?"

Regardless, I fail to see the "ignorance" that you apparently do....

IMO any confusion is understandable. On the Camaro website GM clearly advertises the rims as being much darker than they are. For something so straight forward as research no research beyond this should be required.

The Chevy Build Your Own Camaro website Is very misleading on the color of those RS wheels! Looks more like a car with wheels in a "Need for Speed" Game builder!

And can even get more confusing about all the options what you can get and what you cannot get between the LT LS 1SS 2SS and RS package's etc and whatever else if you were just looking into the Camaro for the 1st time! Not everyone knows about Camaro specialty websites.
So Don't beat yourself up about it!

We were a bit disapointed that the RS wheels were not Darker like on the website builder as we wanted an all Black sinister looking exterior. But even after we got them. They don't look to bad at all!

Later we might get some that are Black with a Chrome lip or something of that nature but these RS wheels are beautiful as they are! So easy to clean too!

We Like em'!
