Help me decide color

I am up in the air with of the color the car I am ordering? I am looking at Cyber Grey Metallic or Victory Red. I have seen the victory red first hand it looks amazing, but in the past I have not been the bright color type. Has anyone seen a CGM or both in person?

CGM is amazing in person. if i hadnt ordered mine already i woulda probably gotten the CGM or the red jewel. i loved the orange from the minute i saw it though. honestly though you cant go wrong with any color on this car.

I went with abm/white rally because its the closest colour to the blue pearl my dad had on his 72 z28.

I was originally going to go IOM/Black Rally but the blue just popped to me, and I don't even like blue.

I havent haven'tordered my Camaro yet but I am going with Red Jewel, originally was going to go for CGM with custom black stripes, but Red Jewel Tintcoat seems to be fine without any striping. Does not need it, if anything i Iwould would consider CGM stripes on RJT but im I'mnot sure yet, have some time to decide though :-D

Mine is Victory red...everyone compliments the color. I prefer that color over gray.

They are two very different colors but remember every other Camaro on the road will be Red. I'd go with Cyber Grey for sure.

As you can see in my sig I ordered a IBM but CGM is an amazing color. Out of your two I would get CGM. But the last three cars I have driven have been Red so I am kind if tired of it. If I was to get a Red it would be the RJT.

Black is gorgeous but all of the colors are. I have seen Red, IOM and Black in person. I got to see a Red 2 SS yesterday. Pretty darn sharp looking and I saw a Red 1 LT driving down the street on Friday.....it looked so awesome! Which ever color you get will be amazing.

Can't go wrong with any color on this car.

Get what makes you feel happy.

I keep bouncing around 3 or 4 colors myself in terms of favorite.

Go with VR. You want the car to stand out, not fit in with the other family sedans and soccer Mom minivans. Get what you like though. I just think CGM is a bit dull.

I agree, the cyber gray is well gray. Kind of drab to me, but it appears so many do like it and I have no idea why but everyones got different opinions on what they like. Personally Id go with the red between the two.

Red is timeless. My concern is that Cyber Grey will the this decades Polo Green and look very dated in a few years. Having said that it is a cool color.

Those that say cyber gray looks 'plain' has not seen it in person on a sunny day. I'd pick it over VR any day.
