Red is not the color for this car

I hope to get some pictures of my RJT up when I get my car. But seriously the color with the white extended Rally Stripes and the red bowtie really fit that car well. It also goes great with the red SS.

In some photos I'm inclined to agree with the OP, but yours definately shows the exact opposite.

I have not seen many RJT with white stripes. I bet the stripes would just pop off that RJT.

Personally I like all Camaro colors. Some just have more "pop" to them than others. I love my RJT! To each his/her own though.

Almost all visible colors can be obtained by the additive color mixing of three colors that are in widely spaced regions of the visible spectrum. If the three colors of light can be mixed to produce white, they are called primary colors and the standard additive primary colors are red, green and blue.

Two colors that produce white when added together are called complementary. The color complementary to a primary color is called a secondary color. The complementary or secondary colors for red, green and blue are cyan, magenta and yellow respectively. These three colors are often referred to as the subtractive primary colors. When the three are combined in subtractive color mixing, they produce black.

OK, back to the subject of Red.

Ok fine.. I got my physics a little messed up.... lets get a camaro of every color and mush them together and we'll see what we get.. it won't be white!

Not to pick on you both.
1. Pigment ie paint is different = mud or black is the combination of color but not spectrum.
2. Went talking about black the absents of all color your talking about light.... we all know you only get color from the light such as light passing through rain and you get a rainbow and when you turn out the lights you get black.

Yes, I work with light everyday.... and thank you to everyone else for the

Yes i know i was making a joke

VR > IOM. Both look great, though. The one color that I'm underwhelmed with is SIM (I think that's the abbreviation for silver? haven't been on here for a while...).

I don't hate IOM, I just prefer VR over IOM

This is a quote by leftdust in a different post....
"What Chevy needs is more of a "concrete" color - a mix of the CGM and Silver - Dodge has the color - a mid level grey. "
So someone telling me the car doesn't look good in VR but wants a "concrete" color... well... their opinion doesn't have much clout.

[Tanner]

I think Victory Red looks good in the engine compartment too.

[Rocky918]

VR is very bland on this car, ive seen a few... so is RY ... just dont do it for me... IOM on the other hand is a WOW ... but i still think RJT is the best color ... so it depends which red u were talking about

RJT ROCKS!!!

But, I don't think this car could ever look bad in any color...
