Inferno Orange paint and interior?
Hi All,
Hi all - newbie here, always wanted an SS Camaro, Monte Carlo, or Chevelle since the '70s. Test drove the 2SS hardtop yesterday and got my wife's approval today - when she saw the car, that was all it took! So now "we" will probbaly order a 2011 2SS convertible. Your thoughts: Would the inferno orange exterior and black/orange interior look sweet or ugly? What about resale + or -? Your view either way is welcome and appreciated! Thanks, - Paul |

Looks wise it should be hot. I ordered the same thing. Resale value? No idea yet. I'm not buying it to sell though. I will die with it in my garage.

I hope it looks good, that's exactly what I ordered!
Resale +/- will probably depend on how many people order it that way. I doubt it will happen, but I hope they discontinue it on 2012 models to keep it a first run only option.

That's also why I went with it...I thought it helped waken up the interior. We are very happy with it.

Appreciate your help - 2SS vert order going in soon!
Thanks everyone for the helpful comments, links, and pics. L-o-v-e the IO interior! Wife thinks it's cool too. It's a winner!!!
I've always wanted a car I could keep forever. This one is it, looks and performs like no other! Hoping to order and have it by June, dealer says 6 to 8 weeks. Woohoo I did a stint for 3 months working for GM in 1981 as a Pontiac dealer parts driver. This is the ride I could only dream about back then. Sometimes things change for the better! And this is a great forum too! Anyone know where I can get a Camaro5 window decal? Will need one in about 6 to 8 weeks. |
