Or say a white Lexus ISF of Cadillac XLR... in my area, it's usually an upper-middle-aged asian lady driving it.

Looking at the list of built Camaros that was posted on one of the forums... it's easy to see that the Black 2SS is one of the most popular cars.
Hello my name is Misses Schwan! I tell you everything... Seriously? I Love white, I want to marry it... I think white with full black rally stripes or full Blue rally stripes would look awesome!! Plain white even! I think it would look great on the Camaro.

Here are the latest details on the Camaros at Hendrick

http://email.tailorednews.com/TMsubs...&m=LandingPage

As it states at the bottom they will be at Hendrick Chevrolet in Cary until the 20th and then they will most likely move them up to Hendrick Automall in Durham for the 2nd of May reveal before bringing them back to Cary for the reveal on the 6th.

Hendrick does a great job hosting events. I have been to several Corvette events in the past. I assume this Camaro one will kick butt too.

I guess I'm just not a white kinda guy. The only white that I wear is on my socks.

If it was available, I would have ordered a brown metallic Camaro! haha

To each his own, that whats makes us all unique.
That could be an interesting color.

It would be unique, and it probably wouldn't look too bad. It would just be an earthy shade of CGM.

It's old-school... I don't think a brown car has ever been made since the 70's or maybe early 80's. The old bronze metallic Cadillacs were cool too. There were a lot of cool colors on cars in the 70's.

I've been thinking about this... and I see you're actually going with the silver metallic. That would be my second choice, and it looks good on the Camaro too... better than white haha But you want to be different, just like everyone else. That's why I go with what I like, no matter what other people like.

Seriously... I had a co-worker a few years back who bought a new Chrysler 300, all decked out... black on black. He let me test drive it one night after work, at around 3am. He told me he really liked the car, but that he wanted to paint it orange so everyone would know it was him. Now this dude had some money to throw around, but I seriously don't think he knew what looked good.

But I've got a question for you. Does being rich mean that you've automatically got a great sense of fashion or style? Does being rich mean that you know what looks good? Or do you just want to look like you're rich?

Look at this rich guy... so stylish haha Then again, I don't know what kinda car he drives. I just hope it's not lavender or any other shade of purple.

Did he buy a white one?

Is this his "daily driver"?

Is this his only car?

If he was a responsible driver he did (They say people who drive white are more responsible drivers...)

It might be now... that it's legal...

I doubt it, he probably has a powder blue Prius too...

Tell me, Mr Car Color Sociologist... what kind of drivers buy black cars? red? orange? green? yellow? blue? gray? brown? gold?

Responsible = Old = Slow = They piss off the people behind them because they drive so slow... then the people behind them drive like a**holes because they want to get around the "responsible".

I guess it's not just old people who drive white cars though... Soccer moms do. But wait, they're all at least pushing 40 :-P And that's gettin' up there! Certainly old enough for their hair color to match their cars!!

Some of these people in white cars who have aged more than I, and with eyes that are different shaped than mine... I sware, they must leave home an hour early just so they can get in front of me and drive 10mph below the speed limit.

WOW... easy no need to go on the poor folks

I think your just profiling... seeing as how white is the number one selling color of all time, it just so happens by probability alone that the idiots would be in white...

No. Profiling is pulling over a black or hispanic person because they fit the "usual suspect" criminal description in a particular area.

Stereotyping would be saying that ALL drivers of white cars are "old", and ALL "old" people drive slow.

Realizing the truth - that is when things occur too often to just be coincidence.

And just a thought...

If white was such a popular color... why isn't the Camaro offered in white (like the hair color of the people who would buy it)?

jk

Mr. Hendrick's cars are black and silver, right? Maybe he's just not a responsible driver, huh
