silver boring?

[HDDAN]

GM seems to think that the Ice Silver Metalic looks pretty good since they use it in all of their literature and Hotwheels used it for their car and the remote control car at Camaro Collection is also ISM. Mine is ISM because my 2002 SS was pewter and silver seems to always look clean even when it isn't. My 1998 Z-28 was black and looked dirty two minutes after I washed and waxed it. Boring? 6.2 liters, 400 ponies, six speed with tapshift, boring? Perhaps she's the boring one. What does she drive?

Which is a great explanation of why SILVER is not boring!

You strengthened my point, lol

I'm biased, but I don't see anything 'boring' about silver. And, based on the commercials, I believe Chevrolet finds silver pretty exciting.

Check out the above thread and you tell me....

Yeah i know in the camaro commercial, of all the colors the camaro has, they picked silver to show it off. my salesman also recommended silver. he told me he is normally a fan of black on sports cars but he says black can tend to hide some of the curves and shape of the camaro and lighter colors like silver accentuates them. when my co worker sees my silver camaro parked by her black vue we will see how boring silver looks i guess.

Every car and truck I've owned until now has been black and I can tell you it's a b*tch to upkeep. But when it's washed and waxed, it's beautiful. The silver is a little mundane compared to the other colors available, but you can add your own unique touches to it and make it stand out.

Absolutely nothing Boring about SIM!!! In direct sunlight combined with the angles of this car, it is just "Stunning"
Silver is a Classic Muscle Car color that never gets dated. Plus, If it was your first choice you will regret not sticking with it.

I didn't say I hate silver. I said" I can't stand it". Hate is such a nasty word.
Why ask an opinion if you think your only going to get back what you want to hear. I have white with orange stripes. Say what ever you want about it. I'm a big boy I can take it.

[tacotylert]

yeah its not boring, but it would be maybe my 5th or 6th color choice

[Bryan]

You absolutely will not regret silver if you like it in the pictures

IMO the SIM still shows the design and styling of the Camaro better than most colors. Its a matter of choice and this topic has been rehashed too many times already...

Sitting next to this '67 my '10 SIM is not boring...
