None of the colors would be bad - sort of like picking dessert after dinner - it's all good! Make mine Inferno Ornage Metallic with an extra set of black powdercoated ZL1 wheels. Keep the stock ones pristine.

It's a no brainer for me. I've owned three Camaros...all Victory Red! The fourth will be Victory Red too.

I am tempted after seeing the Motor Trend and Dallas photos. The Final decision will be easier after the NY Auto Show which I am attending!

I will take mine in Green. The green reminds me of the 1969 Camaro brochure. See images...

Well if you wanted Red Jewel Tint for your ZL1, the color has been changed to the lighter Crystal Red Tint for 2012. Although I was passionet about a Marina Blue or Jet Steam Blue, the Crystal Red might not be a bad choice. With the red interior stitching and red engine cover, it might flow together very nicely. Now... If they added the silver/red accent gauges from Camaro Black and red ambient interior lighting, that would really be a beautiful interior to match the powerful curves of the ZL1.

where is your official source of this info? I heard the pigment from Japan used in the RJT color can not be accessed anymore, but cmon, its 2011.. your gonna tell me GM cant match that color without that pigment? There's millions of ways to make each color

and correct me if Im wrong, but RJT darker than crystal red? I like the dark red color on my SS and would want it on my ZL-1 also :(

Like CC873 said, it was posted yesterday with the information on the release of the 45th Anniversary model. And yes, Red Jewel is several shades darker than Crystal Red. Definitely not as much maroon in the Crystal Red.

i like the crystal red shade more than the red jewel for this reasoning.
