I've heard alot about it costing $$gajillions to get a gajillion colors. But aren't most folks really just wanting something else that already exists?? I've heard the arguements about creating colors with limited demand, and those arguements are sound. But, just how many Supersonic Blue Vettes would be sold vs Supersonic Blue Camaros may I ask?
Sharing colors among vehicles is relatively straight forward when the vehicles are assembled in the same plant. However, sharing colors becomes more expensive when vehicles are assembled in separate plants, such as with the Corvette (Bowling Green) and the Camaro (Oshawa), for example.
