Never heard of "Hugger Green"! There was of course a Hugger Orange in the first gens. and my personal favorite that I got on my Z/28 in '69, Rallye Green. I had been holding out in hopes of ordering a 2SS or Z/28 in a nice green, unless something changes later with this 1LT limitation. I'm stunned and very disapponted with this IMO cockeyed marketing move.

meh doesn't interest me I have my car picked and almost ready to order. won't change my mind, the same with many others. if they take away the RS package they should add something in to make it that much of a better offer for people looking at a slightly more than entry-level V6 Camaro.

Scott my friend,
I bought a V6 2LT/RS RJT from Eric down in Grapevine and considering what else is out there, my car is very appealing. So are we talking about aesthetics or power? I'm tickled to death that it has 304hp and realistically gets at least 27mpg. I tell ya, as a consumer, I can't believe they want to take a fine ride like the Camaro and turn it into a head of lettuce.

Doesn't affect me - I don't like green.

It's not like this color will sell so many v-6s that the CAFE will lower allowing more v-8s to be built. That might be their intentions, but I don't think it will work. They need to make some v-6 models with more performance upgrades for people to be interested.
Not an agressive color?? It's similar to the pics below and they are surely agressive looking IMO.

See, and that's your opinion. I, though, don't think it is hideous, and it would have worked with my vision very well. Now, I'm going to have to pay for a custom paint job to get where I want on the 2SS...

Oh I understand the V6 aspect, I was more interested in why they are not going to offer it in the 2LT as well.

while it is a nice color, its not a popular color. so limiting it in the beginning makes sense. if it sells, they can easily add the RS package or other trim levels. we need to see how popular it will be first.
