New Camaro Crystal Red :) and Onstar Question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

CrystalRedSS · 04-04-2012, 01:33 PM

Hello everyone. Just picked up my Camaro recently, a 2012 Crystal Red 1SS/RS A6 ordered in Feb. and wanted to show her off. I've been looking around this site for many months and finally decided to join up. I've already posted some pics in the Crystal Red Thread in the pics section, but like I said I wanted to show her off some more

Also, wanted to ask: Is the Onstar subscription worth it, I know I get a few months free. I checked it out on their site and for the full package it looks like $730 or so if you sign up for three years. I mean a nice mobile GPS is like 200-300 and they are good for a few years, I guess what I'm trying to say is, are the other additions (Monthly updates on vehicle to your email and so on worth it?) Opinions?

O and this is my first muscle/pony/sports car, or even car with any power, I also have a Toyota Corolla, its quite a difference 132hp to 400hp... I love my Camaro!

nice where in pa are you?

Hellfighter · 04-04-2012, 01:35 PM

sexy color, good choice, i personally have onstar and it is amazing.

CrystalRedSS · 04-04-2012, 01:37 PM

Eastern PA, the Bethlehem area. But I'm moving to SC soon, more sun and more fine days to enjoy the Camaro. But actually because I got a job down there

Come to think of it, it will be a fine trip ..some 600 miles

Welcome. As for the Onstar question, check this thread out.

Awesome... I think these are the first pics of Crystal Red in the hands of an owner...

More pics please...

Nice car man,great choice... and nice mud flaps

2010SLVRBULIT · 04-04-2012, 01:59 PM

cool color, not as dark as RJT nor as bright as VR. May have to cruise to GM dealership to check out this color firsthand..
..although the MS rims are darker, maybe just on the sunlight?

monstertodd · 04-04-2012, 02:07 PM

Wow that color really pops in the sunlight! Great choice! I think I like that much better than RJT.

CrystalRedSS · 04-04-2012, 02:22 PM

It does look amazing in the sun. These pics hardly do it justice, you can really see the metal flakes shine, and even in the shade its a darker red but not maroon.

I optioned for the polished rims over the midnight silver ones.

And after hearing about the rock paint chips, I decided to go with the quarter flares, I personally think they look good and I am also getting a clear bra on the front and sides soon too. Some might think its overkill, but I think its totally worth it.

And since you asked so kindly, I have 2 more pics, they are in another thread but I thought what the heck

Agreed! That color looks fantastic! I love it! Yep, I'm sold on this color now. It's really great.
