A little darker would have been much better and I think it would have gotten many more customers. Including myself.

I love my IBM. But if the green was a little darker I wouldn't be thinking of trading my car in for a Z down the road.

Brandi, SGM is a color that no picture will EVER do justice to. A film just can't capture all the light our eyes make out when we see it.
Having said that, that picture is as close to justice as you can get on film.

My final thoughts - out of respect for the 2010 synergy edition gm could have renamed the color to Forrest Green Lime or anything else and kept the limited edition limited.

Piss poor planning in marketing is all I'm saying. I'll let it go now. I'm sure gm will prove to have more issues to hold our attention as the days go on....

Agree, you will see this color again as a Z/28 at some point. Also agree the white stripe gives it a good retro look

I think the SSE cars are still special, they are the only ones with green acrylic panels and stitching. Plus rear spoiler that was RS/SS only. I don't think there will be alot of Synergy cars just because its a polarizing color people either seem to love or hate. Just like ABM.
Maybe GM should have made "SE" badges for where the RS/SS badges go to differentiate the two.

And besides, complaining about it now won't change anything. GM's stopping the color later this year anyways, so it's not like there will be that many 2011 SGM's.
i own a synergy and i got the back up sensors the thing tellin them apart is the green door panels and the green stitching which if ur at a show it will stand out with a 2011 next to it... i wish they offered it wit a v8 the first year but that just makes it somethin to work on =)

it will be worth no more than any other camaro of its type and color will have very little impact on the value either..........you have nothing rare............you do have something I assume that you like because you bought it............. hell an amc pacer is more rare than any modern camaro and I dont see people lining up to buy them..........I guess all these people thinking they have something rare will have a reality check when trade in or blue book time comes around..........I dont think their explination for the rarity of their particular camaro because of color and options will be much of a barganing tool........especially as fast as they are churning em out...

as far as the synergy green people cryn fowl.....do you suddenly now dislike the color because its now being offered on the v8s ......I think if the color is selling that well........GM has shown that they can make wise business decisions......IE offering the synergy in the v8........If that makes you mad at GM then shame on you for expecting them to not make a decision that has helped them get back out of a black hole........and become a stronger company..

NUFF SAID.
actually in my perspective...i didnt buy the car for the color or limited edition... but i plan on keepin the car till i die i love the freakin thing.. in say 15 years down the line some of the cars are gonna die off the number left will drop and idc wat anyone says cuz it happens wit a lotta cars in the past the value is only going to go up... and especially to the people that used to have one and want it again, not all but some people are crazy enough where money isnt a problem for them.. and even though the color is going to be around a lot in 2011, the little things the first year had wont be there and make it worth money.. i agree with just drive the car and enjoy it... but dam dude did u get upset quick

It looks sweet on the SS.

And all you people complaining about the special editions, just because they made it available in 2011 does not change the fact that yours is a special edition. Yours are 2010s and have interior stuff that the others don't. GM did not lie to you, they never said that color was not going to be offered in the future.

I was lied to and it might not have been gm personally that did it, but it was a dealership that represents them!! So maybe they need to do a better job of making the dealerships that are going to be selling thier vehicles understand what they mean when they call something a special limited edition! Im very aware now that the interior is why its a special limited edition, that is until they decide to bring it back out in the 2011..im sure they reserved the right to reproduce that again if the demand is high enough!!!!! I understand being irritated isnt going to change a thing but i reserve the right to be pissed off about it and therefore i am! With that said i will continue to drive my car and enjoy it everyday!
