Completely agree.

But at the same time, I don't want it to look riced out...I guess I'll know for sure when I see it in person, with and without GFX. So many decisions...at least I've got time. :P

I'm obsessed about keeping my car clean. Heck, I carry a bottled water and towel(s) just in case something like bird crap or a stupid bug gets on it while I'm driving around. Then again I may be extreme (hmmm good poll maybe). Black, IMHO, is absolutley the sexiest, bada55 color there is. Throw a contrasting stripe on it and it screams. HOWEVER, if you aren't willing to keep up with any dark paint you will be disappointed in the appearance as it does show dirt rather easily. I would think that anyone getting a new Camaro would keep it spotless regardless of the color so go black and keep her shined!!!! After the Zaino I can't even take a picture of the car without a glare or reflection. It's like a mirror

Haha, yeah, I hope so. It's kind of funny, I have a friend that I went to high school with who's the complete opposite of me when it comes to cars. He's ricer heaven, doesn't want anything to do with domestics. Tacky colors, huge whale wings, weedwhacker exhaust; he's all over it. As long as he likes nothing about my car when I have it photoshopped out on the computer screen, then I'm in the green.

This is what I want mine to sound like (minus the Automatic part ):

I agree with you on the sexy black thing. I was thinking I'd do black with custom silver BB-style stripes on it, blacked out head/taillights and bowties blacked out with a silver outline on them. I know I'll keep it nice and clean, but I'm not so sure about washing it after every time it rains. I live in Florida. Rain = every day here.

Getting the Rally stripes and GFX installed as this is being typed. I should have her back tomorrow. Leaving the GFX unpainted. I'll post pic's of the difference after she is home.

Up until I found out you would be able to get this Camaro in this color, I had planned on going with Black on Black. But now, I'm really considering either IOM/Black interior or IOM/IOM interior...that orange ambient light thing really intrigues me...does anyone have any pics of their orange ambient light in the dark? If so, I'd love to see it. That or just some pics of your IOM cars would be great. Yes, I'm spending time in the IOM photo thread to those who would tell me to go there.
just for you brother. IOM on IO is the way to go.

God I love that look more and more each time I see it. Especially those wheels. Those are the midnight silver ones right? And those gauges look f*cking sexy at night with the orange glow. If only you were color-matching your GFX and bumblebee-styling your stripes...still looks hella good nonetheless! Thanks for the pics by the way.
