Ya know...until I saw these pictures...I was worried about my switch from CGM to White stripes.

Beautiful...absolutely beautiful.

I still haven't seen IOM in person but if it looks half as good as those pictures, I'm in for a real treat

WOW, I was about to write to the forum and complain that nobody is taking really nice pictures of their Camaros when you posted these! Thanks! They are REALLY cool! Very beautiful!

There is an IOM Camaro in the parking lot outside my building and it's what convinced me to get orange instead of black. It's so beautiful that I drive by it every day after work and stop and stare for a few minutes imagining that it's mine instead of some manager's captured fleet car that he drives for free. grrrrrrrrrrrrr You'll love it except on cloudy days when it looks a little pinkish.

Yeah, I've noticed in pics that it has a "dark melon" look to it when it's not in direct sunlight.

Inferno Orange is the next best thing next to the original Bumblebee Sunrise color.. What makes IOM special (and is now an extra cost) is after the Metallic paint is put on, then a Pearl clearcoat goes on top.. That pearl clear costs more than the standard clear and makes a big difference in giving the color life..

catmaster1 · 05-21-2009, 12:42 AM

Those pics are awesome!!!! makes me really want my IOM 2SS/RS, like yesterday!!!!!!!!

TaylorRyanSS · 05-21-2009, 04:13 AM

IOM is radiant..White is just white.. A white Pearl like you see on luxary cars I like..However flat white which is what this will be on the Camaro is like a base.. What you can do is get the car in white and then you have the base to add on the Bumblebee yellow which simply goes over white and that saves you some money in doing so..

I've seen Bumblebee in person and it looked like 70's TransAm gold. Believe me you don't want that color! They must put some amazing lights on it at autoshows to make it glow yellow like it did in the movie. And if you were going to paint your car the color it looked on screen wouldn't it be better to start with a yellow Camaro than a white one?

I personally saw the IOM at a dealer here in CO. Amazing in the sun. Goes from dark orange to a golden orange depending on the angle. Mettalic almost pearl like finish. I picked IOM as my color before I saw this up close and I love it even more!

Which dealer has/had the IOM in CO? I'd like to see it if is still there...

I haven't seen one but I know Len Lyall, Ed Bozarth, and Emich didn't have one in that color as of last week.

Here is an IOM at one of my local dealers' unveiling about 2 weeks ago. Taken from my iPhone.

And here is the same car later on with black stripes installed (not a big fan of the matte stripes on the IOM):

TaylorRyanSS · 05-21-2009, 08:23 PM

^ it looks better with the stripes... but i am doing aftermarket glossy

I switched over to the orange side

i need to see IOM in person!
