Whats so hard to understand about that. Get off the Camaro looks good in any color as argument for silver not being boring.

The bold print proves my point as being boring and safe, you say so yourself. I like all my performance cars to be bright and no I'm not a teen. I just like color, thats the gift of not being colorblind. I guess if I was colorblind silver would look good because that would appear bright.

Don't get me wrong I think it looks great on this car also, but its still a boring color.
Go back and read my original comment again. It was not in bold type. Just your copy of my quote is so you must have edited my quote. Nowhere did I mention "safe", you did. If I wanted "safe" I would not be a motorcyclist. What I specifically said was that I wanted a color that I would not get sick of looking at. When I spent MY $33,000.00, I did not give a f$%k what color any one else might like. It is my car, not yours. I did not buy my SS for the purpose of "popping" whatever that may be, I bought it to drive fast and to occasionally bring to the drag strip. If another color would have "popped" another 50 horses under the hood, I would have gotten it. A policeman doesn't care what color your car is if you are speeding, he cares how fast you are going. To think that a cop gives tickets based on the car's color is foolish. My 87 V-8 Camaro was GM bright red, I had it until I bought my 1998 Z-28. I drove it fast and never got stopped. my 98 Z-28 was black, my 2002 SS was pewter, my 2010 SS is silver ice metalic and my Harley is blue suede pearl. Where is the boredom? With you're "popping" theory, a six cylinder LT is probably less boring than a V-8 SS.
