Did you get that toy out of an Apple Jack's box?
Just joking, all in good fun brother!

I think the available colors reflect the marketing angle the companies have taken for each car. In my opinion the Camaro is a little more refined and the colors available reflect that image that Chevy is trying to project. Ford has really targeted the "tuner car" market with it's colors and striping options. Of course there's arguments to support either view for both sides, but in general that is my observation.

From what I've seen, the GT/CS is just an appearance package and with the standard 5.0 @420 hp ...

Not all sides, just from the top.

Yes you are alone.....I have IOM and have gotten a ton of compliments on the color even though I only bought it to make myself happy!!! check out the IOM on a 1LE and tell me that does not have muscle car written all over it.........

When I was on the hunt for my Camaro I was searching for Summit white, and after a month of not finding what I was looking for, I went with Ashen Gray... now, I'm not saying our color options suck, but they just don't have the same 'sports car' or 'muscle car' appeal... they seem too bland to me... anyone else feel the same way? I kinda outlined it like this to my dealer, and take no offense, it's just my opinion:

"Black is too hard to maintain, yellow belongs on Corvettes, IOM isn't orange enough, red is the cliche' sports car/muscle car color, silver is kinda bland, IBM isn't a bright enough shade of blue..."

Synergy green, kinetic blue, ABM, awesome colors... Summit White reminds me of Camaro heritage thanks to the 67 and 69 pace cars...

I dunno, just an observation... am I alone?

Honestly the gotta have it green is one of my favorite production colors released by any company.
In pics it looks bad but in person under the sun you see a brilliant pearl metallic flake pop.
That color along with synergy green and aqua blue metallic are by far the best colors to me.

That would be my choice as well. Only this color blue is too luxurious for a Camaro. The paint quality is clearly better, and is something you will only see on a luxury car.
