Especially the ABM.....

Dam ABM is sick.

Saw the VR in person for the first time, car looks great but not really wild about the red color. It just doesn't pop for me. Kinda of an inbetween red not bright and not blood red. Has a slight washed out or milky appearance to me.

Just my 2 cents.

wrong!...that red looks great!

The VR looks good to me, but I had to go with RJT..... it was the color that jumped out after I figured most people will go with Black, orange or yellow! Don't get me wrong now, I think all the colors.... except aqua blue... look real good and you would think a Dolfins fan would have ordered the Aqua Blue!

Nice

I was also considering VR until I saw it up close in person and thought it looked kinda cheap. It wasn't awful though. Just my opinion.

Rockies4 · 05-03-2009, 02:01 PM

I agree.

Once you get the red in the sunlight, it will snap, crackle, and pop!

I've never liked medium red cars. For some reason, it always reminds me of plastic. Weird I know, but I can see how someone might not be crazy over victory red.

Which dealership was this car at?

DerbyChamp06 · 05-04-2009, 12:15 AM

Actually, I've been on the fence between VR and ABM, and the photo's you posted almost want me want VR more now. It looks GREAT in those photos!

I think red is always the best color for Camaros and Vettes. I had a 2000 Camaro SS in red and it always got stares. I will be ordering red with white stripes on my 5th gen.

Seen a Red 1LT rs in petaluma. Very impressed. Very red. Looks excellent on this car. Im now a fan of the rs package as well. Well worth the extra money.

I love my 97 Red Camaro color... but this isnt the same. Not as vibrant. Nice... but still doesn't have that "Ferrari Red" like my 97.
