My first 2 picks for color were the blues, then I liked the Red Jewel. Had to go see it on some of the other Chevy's, it's awesome too. Kind of like Candy apple.
I like the blue, but I like the SS better, so Red it's going to be

Has anyone heard from the powers that be. Is there any ifo as to whether or not Chevy will make a blue SS? It's the ONLY thing stopping me from ordering.

Yes, I could definitely be happy with this BLUE, too. Some white stripes for me, and good to go.

I can't figure out why GM would have colors not available in the upgraded cars but have them for the standard cars. Doesn't make sense, should be the other way around. I would much rather have an SS or a Z06 with a color that isn't offered for the standards. It would make it more distinguishable that way!
The blue SS would really stand out if Blue was only offered on the SS, since it's kind of a rare color for cars these days. (out of the norm black, red, white, silver).

I personally don't want blue, but I think it should be offered. Blue Camaro's with white stripes are BAD-A!!

This would make sense, but the problem is that the ABM is available on the LT /LS models, so...........

I bet they ARE waiting to release Royal Blue with a future Z28 model. GM, you are playing with our heart strinds and if they are pulled too hard they just might break.

GM.... YOU have been warned. Don't blame the CAMARO followers for your distruction as it was your decsicion to begin with and you selected to walk on the edge.

I agree with the above 10000x

Look... Offer Blue or Don't Offer it. Make up your minds. Stringing people along is only making them annoyed.

This is like the preview video with the HUD... tease us and then let us down with a delay and then later on push it off a whole model year. Nice.
