Bright Yellow or Red Hot ZL1 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Understanding the color choice is a personal one, I can't seem to decide between keeping my order as a RED Hot or change it to Bright yellow before it's too late

Last time when ordered my 2010 2SS/RS I spent time at the dealership looking at cars that had the color, problem now is that although my dealer has several red hot cruze they don't have any cars with bright yellow. As for the internet, too many have diffrent shades do to video qualities..

Has anyone seen the 2014 bright yellow color? what is your impression? At the end of the day, I want a color that screams but not one that belongs to a highliner crayon..

You really need to see the colors you are trying to choose from on at least a camaro but better on a zl1 with the exact wheels you are getting or you will kick yourself do a search for 1les or zl1s in your area and go look at them you will be glad u did

I've seen Bright Yellow. To me it looks slightly paler than Rally Yellow.
So between Red Hot and Bright Yellow, neither is a conservative color, so it comes down to whether you like yellow or red better.

Yes you are 100% correct, I will be going to the Auto show out here happening this week, hopefully GM will have a Red Hot and/or Bright yellow.

Thanks

I've been going over this same question for weeks but mine was what shade of red. Thought CRT or RRM but when I saw the new Red Hot at the autoshow on the Z28 it made up my mind on the spot !!
Even my son that didn't want Red Hot at all said right away wow, get that !!
The Red Hot is a little darker and richer than the previous reds, almost looks like its wet still. I ordered my 1LE on Friday and still have second thoughts about my choice but all I do is look at these pictures and remember my shock at seeing it in person for the first time. Here's pic's to see what I mean (these aren't photo shopped or edited in anyway)

Go see at the show and I'm pretty sure you'll see what I mean.

Honestly neither color is for me but I saw a loaded 2014 yellow ZL1 on the showroom floor while waiting for an oil change last week. I must say the car is simply beautiful in yellow.
