Let's give GM some feedback on a NEW color for the best looking car on the road today. I would love to see Aqua Blue Metallic back on the car....What do all of you think?

Sorry..forgot to put my NEW color I wanted....Forrest Green

Jet Stream Blue or maybe a nice pewter gold like the Corvettes had back a few years ago..

Green belongs on frogs not muscle cars. NO MORE GREEN.. Sorry just think the green looks like crap..

we have allot of metallic paint, which is fine by me. but maybe we should switch it up. maybe go with a pearl. like replace the summit white with that caddy pearl white. might look nice but also could look ghetto...

another kinda out there color is a metallic gold, but a softer shade then the gold that is on the new mustangs.

The Green on some of those old Yenko cars was really sweet....I know there are a lot of folks out there that hate on green...

does anyone have a pic of Jet Stream Blue?

British Racing Green. They will eventually listen to us.

If they offered the Camaro is that Caddy pearl white, I definitely would have chose that color. It is very unique and beautiful.

Forest Green.....
I asked the dealer was that color available(just in case they forgot to list it on Chvy website.)

Interesting question..........here's a insiders peek on those color choices.

Of course, maybe GM is just following a trend. When DuPont released their most popular colors for 2009 a few weeks back, the top four colors were: white, black, silver and gray. Those four shades alone made up over two thirds of the entire U.S. market.

ABM isn't coming back, but I would be curious to see if GM could do a satin (not matte) black in a cost-effective way. Black is already the most popular color for the Camaro and Vette, so I think the General might as well try a variation on it.

I think more important than a new color is just more options. I look at the 5.0 and you can get optional wheels, optional gear sets, optional hood, different stripe packages, etc. There's no reason GM can't do the same for the Camaro.

Here you go

Definitely need a lighter shade of blue. Either JetStream Blue or bring back Aqua Blue.

I also think it would be kind of cool to see some that EXACTLY match some of the colors offered in '69.

Thunder Gray Chromaflair. It's even better than CGM.
