Ditto. (We have the same car ordered

) Especially after seeing some of these pics, I personally think the polished wheels are too bright for a color like IBM. I think darker wheels look better. Again, just MHO.

IBM ALL THE WAY-

Do we have any real pictures of IBM with Silver Rally Stripes?

I'm completely torn between IOM with Black Stripes or IBM with Silver Stripes.

Might be making an order next week and I'd really like to see an IBM with Silver Stripes before making a decision.

i can see why your torn...I've got a buddy who really wants the IOM so there's no way i could order that color and take it away from him lol...besides I prefer the IBM. but that would be my second choice!

I think the IBM with silver stripes could look great, but I also think it could look really bad.

The more pictures I'm seeing the more I fear the glossy silver stripes are going to look like reflective duct tape at night with how dark IBM is in low light. The silver stripes are going to pickup and reflect light significantly more than the IBM will.

Would really like to see some real pictures to know for sure.

When I was shopping for my current Avalanche I was set on getting a blue one. Had one picked out, everything was good. Then at the last minute switched to orange. I think that could happen again with the Camaro.

Just snagged this one, you get a good 3-4 secs of IBM out in the sun.

(just slap it into HD mode and pause at 4 to see the glittering blue!)

and this one -

Dont mind the gay guys...

I think you might be right with the grey stripes i ordered white and i think thats going to look killer. But just like you said its either going to look really nice or really bad. Hope its on the really nice part. This car likes nice at night and during the day can't wait to see more pics of this color.

any new IBM pics?

jspeak32 · 05-06-2009, 07:57 PM

Rhodes Chevrolet unveiling in Van Buren, Arkansas. They didn't get their V6 that was promised by GM to the dealers, however they convinced their only customer with a delivered order to let them showcase their car from now until Saturday.
SS (2SS I think), IBM, Beige Interior, non-RS

Edit: The dealer tells me these are the polished wheels. For those who have a better eye and knowledge, is this true?
If so, does anyone know how this was added without the RS package? I thought you had to upgrade from midnights to polished.

Eddy9 · 05-06-2009, 08:32 PM

The IBM is a very sharp and classy color on the Camaro! I can't wait for my new baby to arrive!!!!!!!

Ordered:
1LT IBM with beige interior and the optional
19' polished aluminum wheels

Tran · 05-06-2009, 10:14 PM

I found the two-tone seat answer, after going threw a few threads. Time to call the dealer to make sure the silver door inserts come with.
