I don't want a high performance car that looks like turd, otherwise I'd buy a viper.

The right color is every bit as important to me as the performance. In fact I am considering not buying a ZL1 now because of the color choices. You see, If I'm paying the amount it looks like they are going to cost, which is now about 10g's over what I and everyone else thought it was gonna be, I at least need to like the color. So there's at least one possible lost sale due to boring colors. I've got my eye on a new synergy green SS as a possible alternative..I like that color, and It leaves me 30k in upgrades and mods.

It just seems to me good colors are a pretty easy option to offer to allow people to have a little individualism in their ride. I don't really want to "settle" for a color that I'm "ok" with. Its easy if the color you happen to love is available, but a lot of people are bored with the common colors on vehicles.
The camaro needs bright colors, not colors I had to choose from when buying my toyota. The camaro just screams for bright in you face colors and i don't get why its so hard for GM to offer them. When offered they dont even keep them long enough for some people to order them. (myself) They had ABM and SGM and I loved both of those colors but guess what they are no longer available. When i ordered my first camaro back in 2009 I knew exactly what color i wanted and that was ABM. I hadn't even seen the color in person and i knew i had to have it. I want to place an order for a 2012 camaro but I cant because all the colors offered right now aren't doing it for me. We are now back to the boring color pallet offered by all other manufactures.
