I ordered a 1LT in cyber grey with black stipes, alsothe RS/CONN CONV package, i'm having second thoughts about the color, i'm thinking red jewel or silver ice. Its been 5 weeks since order and i'm just not as sure as i was, as soon as i saw cyber grey i thought that was it.

Female?

I don't understand it. I knew from the start that I was either going Black, or Silver. I went Black. I get water spots on my car if I don't dry it right away... but still, I have a nice Black car.

Brother, stay with your first instinct, however rest assure the car looks great in every color. I went through the same thing, it took three months before making up my mind and ordering, I flipped flopped and flipped flopped some more only to go back to the my first pick. What helped me decide was to visit a Chevy dealer during the weekend when there is no one around and had long, very long looks at all the colors existing on other models, like the cobalt, malibu etc., under the sun, shade a, cloudy days. Again whatever you decide, the car will look awsome. Cheers!

Originally I wanted ABM with CGM stripes. But the allure of IOM and the IO interior changed my mind so I ordered that instead. My problem is I ordered it with black Rally stripes, but after seeing images of it with the white stripes I'm wondering if I should change. I think I'm gonna stick with the black because it'll match better with the orange/black interior, but the white stripes really pop. At this point I just want my car.

Go with your first choice, I did and am not dissapointed. The black stripes look like they were made for CGM! Perfect match with the grill too and the rear diffuser dosent stick out like a sore thumb either.

Stay the course Brother you will be glad you did.

I really wanted a blue with white stripe camaro but I find the blue colors available to be a little feminine. Maybe its just the way the blue looks with the lines of the car. Anyway I went with SIM.

I agree as soon as I saw IOM, I knew it was the only color I would except on this car. Good luck with "YOUR" choice.

bpoirier · 07-11-2009, 08:31 PM

This is my first post but I agree stay with your first instinct. I just ordered my IOM 2SS/RS,, black leather, 6M, cyber gray rally stripes on 3 July. I wouldn't have it any other way. From the first time I saw the orange color it was all over.

KJS · 07-11-2009, 09:13 PM

Go with what you ordered.
Then in about 6 months go to the nearest Home Depot or Lowes, grab a shopping basket full of Rustoleum rattle cans in your other choice of colors and spray paint away.
You'll certainly get stares from other motorists, never feel like you had to settle for just any color and best of all its like having a new car whenever you get the urge to spray! ! !

Went to two cruise-ins this week and more than a few hundred would disagree with you as they came up to my CGM!
